Cleveland Indians picked new name

[Godboy]

Wow....what a patriarchal name.......they obviously must think that being "Guardians," over minorities and women is a good concept.....this team has to be disbanded for their anti-Woke beliefs....

Its really condescending, isnt it? What an offensive name, and you know its just a dog whistle for white guys who think they are better than everyone else.

 

[Godboy]

....do you Indians feel better today?...are your lives made better by this?...

Their people fell into obscurity a little more today. Soon, no one will even mention them anymore, nor should you; someone might find it offensive.

 

[irosie91]

Good, im tired of references to native Americans. Get rid of ALL of it! We need to completely wipe out their cultural footprint in this nation.

Pocahantis is my heroine

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

I have a TERRIBLE CONFESSION-------as a child <sob>
I WAS A BROWNIE

Did I ever tell you why I got kicked out of the Boy Scouts?

^ Its offensive hearing a white person talk about indians. You need to be woke and pretend like they dont exist.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

I do not understand why? Just change the avatar and Indians is perfectly fine. Odd. Is Atlanta next?

They announced they were getting rid of the caricature last year. People were were not happy with that either. Now I think they will lose a lot of followers even though Cleveland has always been a diehard sports city and support their teams through thick and thin, and it's mostly been pretty thick for us.

The funny thing is there has never been a big push about it from the American Indians. Yeah, there used to be two or three of them standing outside the ball field holding signs on opening day, but that was about it and who cares about a few snowflakes?

Just one of hundreds of instances how the left is destroying this country. I truly hope these sports institutions destroy themselves one by one.

Democrats dont want you to use indian names, or dress like an indian, and they dont want you to use any indian customs. You would be wise to never mention indians at all. Just pretend like they never existed and you wont find yourself in any trouble.

It’s a very old joke. Ask around for the punchline.

It’s a very old joke. Ask around for the punchline.

A joke that requires homework?

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

What the **** is it to you?

 

[Quasar44]

blackhawk
That is a horrible name !!
Cleveland cougars is better
Cleveland Cosmos is better

 

[Quasar44]

Cleveland Hebrews I was hoping for

 

[Leo123]

We would feel better if you didn’t call us Indians. Indians are from India.

Cows ain't boys and boys ain't cows neither so, what's your point?

 

[Leo123]

Pretty soon with all the 'transgendering' in sports, you could have the Cleveland Cleavage.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Cleveland Hebrews I was hoping for

Go all out. Cleveland Jehovahs.

....do you Indians feel better today?...are your lives made better by this?...

As part indian, I feel insulted and pissed off at this action.
My white Viking side thinks this is unbelievable weak and pathetic.
