What Use Of Your Ancestral Identity Offends You?

Mgr was on a check ride with me in AZ. I walked up to a Great Dane standing on her hind legs behind a fence and started petting her while my mgr, who was probably lighter than the dog, hung back in fear. She got all over me for not being more cautious. Never told her that I had delivered there the day before, and the dog was a total sweetheart. Heard later mgr was telling others I was some kind of dog whisperer lol!

When was the last time some one slapped the smug look off of that unshaven face Wally?
How'd that square ball thing work out for you Polack's?
They don't putt well either.

This is a weird thread. I assume it was in response to the name change of Washington football team. But of course the example that's used isn't equivalent to that team's former name. It's a leprechaun, that comes from Irish mythology. That teams name was not based on a mythical native character.

Here are the two sides of this debate, on one side are people saying hey this name offends my ethnicity/culture it should be changed.

On the other side are people saying we don't care if it offends your ethnicity/culture and what you want doesn't matter.

The opposition of the team's name change want to maintain the dominate cultural power to keep that name over the objection of the outgroup. For the opposition of the name change, the battle it is about saying "WE" get to decide if that name is acceptable. "WE" get to determine what's offensive, what is outside of polite society, not these whining lesser groups. It means they are losing power to them. This is why they get so upset. It's not about the name change per se, it what that name change represents to them, a lose of power to dictate what happens.

This thing is a microcosm of most American political fights.

So you speak for all native Americans and get to say what they're offended by? Get real commie.

Huh? Very strange understanding of my post. I posted that on one side of the debate are people saying hey this team's name offends my ethnicity/culture and on the other side of the debate are people saying we don't care if it offends your culture, what you want doesn't matter. And your response is to ask me if I speak for all native Americans. Truly, truly bizarre response to my post.

You make the assumption that all native Americans are offended by that team name because that fits your narrative.

Please read for comprehension. I posted on one side of the debate are people saying this team's name offends my ethnicity/culture and on the other side of the debate are people saying we don't care if it offends your ethnicity/culture, what you want doesn't matter. And your repeated response is to ask me if I speak for or assume what all native Americans think. Truly read what I posted, it has nothing to do with what you posted. nothing.

Your logic is faulty as usual.
There are many sides to the debate. Many native Americans are not offended by the team name. You try to pigeonhole all native Americans as having the same opinion because it fits your racist narrative.

Truly read what you posted and try to admit that you and all marxists like you purposefully posit things in black and white. And of course, race vs race and class vs class is how you people incorrectly view the world.

For decades polls have been taken among Native Americans as to how they feel about their images being used for team mascots. Overwhelmingly they have been positive about such mascots. They feel it reflects their strength in the face of great adversity. However a small percentage of mostly younger Native Americans as well as their far Left white compatriots have been pushing the whole cultural appropriation theme. THEY know better what the rest of us should think and support. Getting to the point of complete idiocy.

You keep not reading for comprehension. I don't know what to tell you, only that one person not thinking something offends their ethnicity/culture can't cancel out another person who does think something has offended their ethnicity/culture because the sides still end up at the same point.

Which is one side is saying hey this team name offends my ethnicity/culture and the other side saying well this other person isn't offended so that means we don't care if it offends your ethnicity/culture and what you think doesn't matter.

Like most marxists, you hold racist views about society, which is why you cannot think rationally about this topic. Carry on.
