Chief Wahoo Discussion

[Lyst]

Im 34 years old and have never heard anyone "joke" about the term redskins or Chief Wahoo. I live in WV, pretty much my entire life and we are full of racist rednecks. Maybe you should...Come on.

The joke is the name itself.

Lyst is triggered. We should be banned, per his position.

This is why your position sucks

There are people who want to be blind and go to the doctor to get their eyes removed. Youre granting way too much power to the people.

What about hawks? Peta is offended. Inanimate objects? Wait for the cultural appropriation claims for the Washington spoons, because spoon men were natives, and then we'll just have this same argument.

Super easy for a white male in america to have this opinion. For one fucking second think about being in someone else's shoes.

Theres the racism. Potentially the most hypocritical, ironic conversation I've ever had.

White peoples opinions don't count. They don't know how to step in other ppls shoes.

I completely against that bullshit about 'White people are the devil'. Or all white people are privileged.

But the fact of the matter is that the Native American tribes were decimated by foreign entities. By disease, murder, and rape. If one person is offended by Chief Wahoo, or "The Redskin". I'm ready and OK to change it.

They did the same to white people, contrary to popular belief

How does the bible thumpers feel against gay rights? Are they deeply offended and demand change?

Or is that not how this works?

What about a vegan watching me tear up some meat, is he/she greatly offended and demands I stop eating meat because he/she wants to save every animal that exists?

Shit, I don't know what I'm talking about.

Just trying to think of ways that people take great offense to.(trying to make it a bigger joke than it is)

Its not even a joke. What ends up happening is the people who are most tolerant end up losing, in a world where you just grease squeaky wheels. How do you think that will influence them?

If you complain, you get what you want, regardless of how valid your claim may be. Rational people just lose it all. The offended are afforded privilege, if we weren't done with irony.

For every one native offended, there are literally 9 who are telling them to Stfu.

In Sweden, a man was hired for a job. His religion prohibited him from respecting women. So he wouldn't shake any of their hands, etc. His job told him he needed to get the fuck with it. He filed suit that they weren't respecting his religion and he got paid 30k out of court to settle.

If you think this can't be used for ill, well fuck man.

Lately, I'm back and forth on this subject, but you make me want to fight the good fight.

Since I have a percentage of Native in me, I'm definitely apart of the 9. Im just burnt out on the crying.

For the record I think it's racist, but I'm in the minority. And all know about how we feel about minorities

These last few pages have been pretty gross and honestly beneath the forum....

If you guys can't handle talking about this topic without digressing to race-based diatribes; then maybe you guys shouldn't be discussing this topic at all?
