No to racist t-shirts

[Swish]

Shopper Ian Lucraft (white guy) sent a scathing letter to the budget retailer's HQ to get the 'offensive' t-shirts off the shelves (https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/2916848/the-walking-dead-fans-fury-primark-racist-tshirt/)

Thank goodness justice was done here, maybe we need to add some Primark management to the P99 staff.

Barbary Pirates?

[chadtwoke]

whats wrong with not wanting racist t shirts?

The shirt has nothing racist on it. Some effeminate, white, literally cuckolded man saw the shirt and cried about it so it was deemed racist.

ok but why do you think that's important?

[Baler]

ok but why do you think that's important?

Because
1. people only make a big deal about things that have happened in the past 100-200 years. You don't see people getting offended by many common symbols or words that came from 'ancient' acts of hate and evil. But there are so many people on their high horse about something that happened 200 years ago. They really believe they're making a difference, When all they're doing is causing ripples in the water.

2. If all you do is talk about hate than all you will spread is hate. Ask any person today who hitler was and they can all tell you. He is more in-famous than gandhi. We shouldn't focus on the negative, rather move forwards in a positive way. It's good to make people aware so the same mistakes aren't made. But when you focus on the negative you glorify it in a way.

3. We have moved on about the subject of ancient evil. Yet these people won't move on from the past ~200 years. But these same people who can't move on are preaching on their soap box about how we have to move forward.

This is a clear case of virtue signaling and professional victimization. The person who reported the shirt as being racist probably lives a miserable life as they wake up each day wondering what they see they can deem offensive. Spoiler alert; they're liberals.

If only all the racist BLM morons would subscribe to that mentality, we wouldn't have to deal with so much idiocy from them.
