Where is the fake outrage from the Cancel Culture?
As NASA's Perseverance rover starts to discover and identify interesting new features on the surface of Mars, the team back on Earth will need to start naming them — and they've chosen to honor the Navajo Nation first.

We have cities, towns, and counties all over the country that are named after famous Indians or Indian tribes. Mountains, rivers, and lakes too. I always thought it was a sign of respect

Government exempts itself. Government is also the biggest discriminator based on race, gender etc. Now if you try to do that with a private business government will come after you with the DOJ.

/—-/ Yeah. Keep moving the goal posts. I’m not playing your stupid game.

 

[Hellbilly]

Yeah. Keep moving the goal posts. I’m not playing your stupid game.

Your thread makes no sense.

That is why its ok to use the name.
Of course your not "playing the game "so you will remain ignorant and whine like a bitch.
Cool with me.
