Shops here have sold 'Redskin' sweets for my whole life, the hard chewy type that suck your fillings and teeth out, but the name may be changing soon.
I think from history the redskin name came from using red clay for sunscreen and insect repellent. It was fairly common world wide at the time.
Whites didn't bother with using nations' names. Same white attitude also called them Indians.
Many things are called, and/or have images of 'Indians', and head dresses as their logo etc. Will many of them change as well ?
Is coloured sun screen and zinc cream racist ?
Can everything be colourless and translucent ?
No black paint, just very very very dark gray.
No white out, white paint, white snow, white smoke, white teeth, etc. ?
The blues are out. Smurfs can't be discriminated against either.
Orange political things. Out.
I think it's OK to call cowards "yellow", but no one else.
Green about the gills, offensive to both fish and leprechauns.
RIP Prince of Purple.
And what do blind people think about colour discrimination ? I think I would be annoyed. Is their voice heard ?
So many things are named at a time of invasion, and at later times, to be embarrassed about in the future.
Many things in The Great South Land are named after genocidal terrorists and thieves. Very few of those place names have been changed, because that history is not being taught, and Anglophilia is rampant.
Lots of things are under scrutiny. Just now people were ranting about there not being enough curvy models and that not being right.
Where does it end?
Soon we cannot wear skirts as it'll upset gays. We have to rename that.
Poor people might get upset about tights.
In England they had to box in a statue of Churchill because of something he said way back when.
Some, our king among them, had to publicly apologise for actions from the past. WTF is that all about?
I personally find that ridiculous and disgusting. Not sure what he and others had to apologise for, but I imagine slavery is part of it.
And the biggest slavers were black Africans (!!!) and nr 2 Muslims!!. Muslims got 17 million black Africans out of the country. They castrated them, many didn't survive that, so the victim count is much larger than 17 mill.
Apart from that, history is history. Why should we apologise for what happened hundreds of years ago? Everyone did what they thought was right.
In that sense all the to-do today is totally insane and goes way too far.
