Not a name change but those have got to be the shittiest changes ever… also history channel.

I think I read her descendants were absolutely against it.
She was a fairly famous actress, IIRC.

HEB here in Texas, which itself has woke tendencies
—Naaa, you’re just mad because of those ridiculous HEB crawfish ads last year showing people in white shirts and khakis picking up crawfish with tongs and holding glasses of white wine.

You might wanna consider that I am not from LSU or Louisiana and thus lack your cajun sensibilities.

I remember all the ironic mustached lumberjack hipsters saying Faubourg would take over the beer world. Lmao Enjoyable watching it die and close down.

The name wasn’t necessarily the reason the beer brand failed. Dixie was horsepiss before it became Faubourg
so just a coincidence it collapsed right after the name change after surviving for a century with the old name?

Remember that time IHOP “rebranded” to IHOB to announce their terrible burger lineup. What a failure that was.
wasn’t that just an April Fools day gag and not a real name change?

Who decided that Indians didn't like to be referred to as Indians? I watched a segment on 60 mins a few weeks back about something called "Indian Relays" and they were referring to themselves as Indians.
And the whole mascot thing is stupid. The Redskins name change was more about the NFL wanting the previous owner to sell his team (that needed to happen, but if the NFL really cared about that they would have made the Chiefs change their name.. But their were Indians wanting Washington to change it back to redskins).
As for as worst rebranding it has to be twitter. When people used twitter they tweeted.. A bird goes tweet... they had the blue bird logo. It almost had its own language... Retweet. Elon Musk bought it and changed it to X and people still refer to sharing someone else message as retweeting. On tv, when they show someone and include their social media info, the twitter logo is still used.
And I thought he was going to get rid of bots, but there are more now than ever before.
