I get what you’re saying, but it’s kinda a semantics argument.

I don’t think it’s semntics
There seems to be a clear difference between a word changing definitions because it is so commonly used one way, and a word being noted that it is ometimes used offensively
A word that isn’t defined as such can only be offensive with context

You’re an idiot. Won’t be trying a Courtyard beer. Glad I read this loser’s crying attention whoring charade to the media.

Calling a 10yr old a child is offensive to me

They should be judged on using a word by its actual current definition, and not how others have used it
Sure, but the optics aren't great.
If you had a mascot of a Bulldog you can't call a camp group "Bitches" just because it's technically correct.

I feel that squaw is such a rare word it isn’t exactly known common place that its offensive
I have heard that word maybe twice in my life in an old movie

I would be offended if they used Wop and Dago as group names, so I can see where Scott is coming from. After all he is a little bitch.

I mean it’s pretty clearly an offensive word now. It’s not like the word spade where you could be talking about a deck of cards or a black person.

Not even get along
You should only go to establishments/watch movies/ but lroducts from those you identify with politically

You ironically win snowflake of the day.

Because I, unlike you, am a white male who has checked his privilege. I suggest you do the same, shitlord.

Like I said earlier, every time CFA comes up everyone here blasts those who boycott the place. Here we have someone who didn't even do anything that personally affects anyone in this thread, and people are boycotting the brewery over it (not that I think they were customers to begin with).

Chances are you wouldn't be trying it anyway. They have the best beer in the city.
You're mad that someone thinks redskin is offensive and you think you're punishing him by continuing to not give him your business. You're definitely teaching him a lesson!

I've never heard squaw to my m knowledge. Looked it up and it seems like a poor choice, but I'm not one to get offended on behalf of a race. I'm sure they meant no harm.

I see the difference though
CFA did not try and attention whore their beliefs
I think boycotting both is silly, but their is a clear difference

Today I learned that squaw is an offensive term. All this time I thought it was a harmless name for a female native American.

I truly don't understand how people live life that way.
I feel like I follow a pretty common sense/middle of the road belief system. Which has me at odds with both side of the political spectrum. I guess I can't shop anywhere, or talk to anyone
