Looks like even virtue signaling has run its course. Native Americans and other 'marginalized' people are tired of white liberals telling them what they should be offended over.

As an aside Brett Cooper is 23 years old and has 4.5 million subscribers and is making bank. This generation does little but complain but look at the opportunities they have that none of us did.

I said that all during that time and have every aspersion possible cast at me.

I bitched about Bush for six years, and through all that time the Republicans on this board never trashed me the way the Democrats do now that "their guy" is "in charge.

Two fuckwit MAGAts that don’t realize Bernie just put “Leon” & “The Swamy”, DonOld, and the corporate military industrial complex in check.

“Leon” & “The Swamy” weren’t even looking at the military budget in the “DOGE” scam. (and DonOld certainly didn’t task “Leon” & “The Swamy” with focusing on the DoD.

Hope that ^ helps.



fuckwit MAGAts



e/t/a - Here’s another fun read on how the Democrats are attacking DOGE, DonOld, and the DoD military industrial complex:

“Leon” says “Cool”, but he is just playing it cool. (“Leon” gets beaucoop bucks from the DoD.

To be fair, I have always thought that this whole "Renaming sports teams" thing was a little over the top. I still think of them as the "Redskins" and have gotten criticized- incidently never by a Native American by the way- for slipping up and referring to the Commanders by their old name.

But the thing is, I honestly don't know whether they find the term "Redskins" offensive or not. I think, what you are implying, is nobody actually asked the Native American people whether they thought it was offensive, they just assumed they thought it was. I'm guessing this is your point here.

From the article:

WASHINGTON (AP) — More than a dozen Native American leaders and organizations sent a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday calling for the league to force Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder to change the team name immediately.

I agree.
Losers, however, should not bear proud monickers...

The new owner has made some dramatic changes and is getting positive results. He almost looks like he has a clue as to what he's doing.


In Washington??? Really ????


Give him a cabinet post then . . . .

Renaming the Redskins was just another example of the "woke" determining that minorities aren't fit to represent national brands.

Who's the racist now baby?

Rollie Helmsley was never a Guardian, and he would be offended by the suggestion.

The same activists decided to go after the Florida State Seminoles. The Seminole tribe went all Achmed the dead terrorist on the activists. Never heard another word from the worthless pieces of shit.

The name will never come back. That bridge has been burned.

What should come back is the logo. That likeness is Chief Two Guns WhiteCalf. Blackfoot Chief, ( I didn’t watch the vid so apologies if she brought it up) I believe the likeness was drawn by a tribe member of the Blackfoot Nation. Chief White Calf’s children were honored by the Redskin’s and fully support their ancestors likeness.

I’m a dyed in the wool Redskin fan. Watching the game yesterday, almost every shot of fans in the stands, you can still see Redskin paraphernalia they were decked out in. I lived in west Texas, Cowboy Country, but there was an Indian reservation close by. I would actually see more Redskin Jacket’s and hats than Cowboy swag. Anecdotal I know…but still.

If we have to split the baby, I’ll take the Logo…I’ll concede the name, but they’ll always be the Redskins to fans.
