If I were watching NFL, I would continue to call them the Redskins.

So you’re suggesting that Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull were racist?

To be fair, they probably were racist.

And here we go with the goal post moving. You brought up an organizations ruling that in no way defines anything for anyone but people they have legal ties to. Now you’re moving away from your initial reason for bringing it up. You guys are use the same circular bullshite.

True but not against their own people. They called themselves Redskins.

Navajo Code Talkers leader defends Redskins name


I’m sure some don’t find it offensive. It’s not debatable that lots do. Native American groups ask NFL to force Redskins name change

So you're going to deprive the Navajo windtalkers of their pride because you as a white man feel it's derogatory?

It is debatable since last time they tried this it was about 80-90% of native Americans polled against removing the name. Fake news isn’t news.

I’m not depriving them of anything.

Maybe you should boycott FedEx; their threat to remove sponsorship was a major factor in the name change. Of course, maybe you don’t like the free market, and prefer that some government entity should step in and prevent this travesty.

So if you’re a free market big leaguer you have a right to be a fascist? You’re fine with Fedex using its leverage to attack someone but you’re not ok with an individual canceling Fedex? Didn’t know left wing free market arguments could be this stupid.

The poll that the team trotted out was conducted among “self-identifying” Native Americans, which, assuming you were against Liz Warren making such self-identification, shows some flaws in that poll.

“ Contrary to polls showing that relatively few Native Americans take offense at the Washington Redskins’ name, a new UC Berkeley study has found that at least half of more than 1,000 Native Americans surveyed are offended by the football team’s 87-year-old moniker and Native mascots in general.”

“ Of those polled for the study, 57% who strongly identify with being Native American and 67% of those who frequently engage in tribal cultural practices were found to be deeply insulted by caricatures of Native American culture.”

^^^^
This constant idiotic 20 points removed whataboutism arguments disqualify everything you say. Also continually posting fake news does reinforce your NPC talking points.




Btw Warren was proven to be a liar, did you prove all the polled people were liars? How are they the same?
