I was coming here to defend Aunt Jemima, as she has made me some delicious pancakes in the past. However, I then saw this



I mean racist? Well yeah, but I still love pancakes

Don't try to analyze the rationale behind their movements. They just emotionally riff as they go.

You have the image of a much earlier Aunt J.

Except in my family, I thought that Cindy was on the label, because that big smiling face was so close to the Cindy that I knew as a child, it had to be her.

The current Aunt J is a PC version. Obviously, not PC enough.

No. They are upset because Aunt Jemima is depicted as a mammy. Mammies were considered to be subservient.

I think you meant "trytard". SJWs tryhard for symbolism, not substance, but such is the struggle for marxism.

Maybe we should outlaw the farming of cotton, sugar cane, etc since there's a history of slave use in those industries.
