re: The ATL Thread: 2021 World Champion Atlanta Braves Offseason Thread

It’s sad, because I enjoy the content. They delete any comments that are the slightest bit critical, so it gives the appearance that all the commenters are aligned with them. You can’t even submit a post without it first being reviewed by a moderator before going public.

TalkingChop was offensive due to the evils of white capitalism and colonialism. A name honoring native peoples and bringing awareness to their struggles was just too much to endure, they decided.

So instead, they changed their name to honor the capitalist enterprises surrounding the park, most owned by white men. This free marketing and honor is much more inclusive.
