You can't keep giving up things just because some jagoffs appropriate them...Maybe it's a good thing people don't want to associate themselves with things being used by hate groups?
The swastika had a certain significance in Hindi/Middle Eastern culture before the Nazis co-opted it.

They probably wouldn't use the OK sign anymore either.The swastika had a certain significance in Hindi/Middle Eastern culture before the Nazis co-opted it.

You are the worst

Colin Kaepernick jumped the shark a number of years ago. As one of the Twitter comments pointed out, I'm sure there are plenty of white nationalists that love Craft Beer, Chipotle, Marvel movies, etc. Is Colin going to tell us that we can't like those anymore? Social justice stuff going off the rails, again.So are we just supposed to forget America existed before the 1900s or what? Man

It's to the point it's annoying as crap. You can associate anything to something hateful.If you read the article, the main issue people had about this was that the flag was flown during a time when slavery was still allowed. So some people see if as a symbol of a country that was ok with that. I don’t think the part that some fringe group might use it had much to do with it.
That said, I don’t really have a problem with it. However, I’m not someone who has a connection to slavery.
Definitely a slippery slope. Chipotle. You’re in the crosshairs. Watch your back, dadholes.Colin Kaepernick jumped the shark a number of years ago.

Over the past couple of years, you have low-key devolved into one of the worst posters ITT. Almost like a poor imitation of Columbia at his best.The swastika had a certain significance in Hindi/Middle Eastern culture before the Nazis co-opted it.

At least I'm not a racist.
Ned?I suppose "worst poster" depends on your political bent.
This was a passive move by Nike. This is indicative of virtually nothing. Here’s a peek into the war room:I'm certainly not angry or upset about it, it doesn't affect me one bit. But there were parts of our history that were bad, there's no debate. Are we just going to not acknowledge anything that happened in that time frame going forward? Let's take Washington off of our quarters and rename the capital too.. just seems silly to keep moving in that direction

Head of R&D: here’s the new design
Head of Marketing: cool. Looks good. Wait...lemme check something.
RD: what’s up?
M: ah crap. Some loonies are using this as a hate emblem. We should probably change it. Is that an issue?
RD: for us? Nope. We’ll have a new design by the time we meet next week. Is it a problem for the bottom line?
M: nah. We’ll make up the production costs by virtue signaling. We have a reliable brand now.
RD: cool. Now let’s go watch as a bunch of nimrods start jumping to conclusions about how big of a deal this is.
