Lulz, don't know about you but I am not offended by the name.

Neither am I. But I don't agree with their views on the name-change debate. They've got some big facts wrong on things like how many Native Americans being offended. But more power to them.

Welcome to the new world order. Where its not about how many people are offended, but IF any one is offended...... Provided its an election year that is.

You mean if that ONE person offended belongs to a certain group of people, that can make a difference. If thousands of others are offended but belong to the "wrong" group, they've got to just take it.

I don't care if you are offended by the name. If you are...cheer for another team. Don't assume people are racist when they use a term in a manner they do not intend to be offensive.

So political activists in the trademark office got spanked for pushing their politics as if it were Law.

The damage is done. They wont bring back the name… its not like those pushing for this ever intentionally watched a football game.

Sure we can, and it's pretty easy to do considering "wokeness" has been created out of something that not many people cared about in the mainstream. All we'd have to do is appropriate and popularize another non-mainstream word or phrase from the 1940s, turn it into something it was never meant to be, and bingo, we have our counter. I suggest, using "Bog Pockets" it's from the same era and could easily be turned into something equally divisive/ nonsensical.
