So now we have to... remove all Native American culture from America or we are being offensive?

How is it that removing an icon from a box of rice hasn't dramatically changed the world, by now? I'm actually AMAZED that the loony lefties haven't pitched a serious bitch about it because it's basically saying that black people should NEVER be portrayed on a package which, to them, SHOULD be racist!! How come we can have a white Irish character on a box of cereal but we can't show a black human on a box of rice or a bottle of syrup? NOT having those IS racist!!! Do they even actually realize how long it took the rest of the country/world to be OKAY with having black people on t. v. and on packages of that sort? If I was running any of those companies, I'd tell them to fuck off!! If they don't like seeing an Indian woman or black people on these products, DON'T BUY THEM!!! There's SHITLOADS more people that couldn't care less and WILL buy the stuff, no matter what's on the package. I wonder, did they ever remove the Indian from Red Man chewing tobacco? Did they even bother to change the name? What are they calling it, now, Human Chewiing Tobacco? Are we still allowed to watch Billy Jack movies?

This won't be disappearing any time soon. FSU has always had the permission of the Seminole tribe to use them as the team mascot. When the NCAA tried to get PC and force colleges to stop using native American Indian mascots, the Seminole Tribe of Florida told the NCAA to go pound sand.

“ As Land O'Lakes looks toward our 100th anniversary, we've recognized we need packaging that reflects the foundation and heart of our company culture – and nothing does that better than our farmer-owners whose milk is used to produce Land O'Lakes' dairy products," said Beth Ford, president and CEO of Land O’Lakes, in a statement.”


Jesus, I’m tired of everyone blaming literally everything on leftists. First it was dr Seuss now this? A companies independent business decision has literally nothing to do with “PC culture”. This could’ve been solved with a simple google search

So hawking products and sports teams using caricatures of Native Americans is now considered their culture? Far from it. I think if the tribes themselves consider the images racist or offensive, we might want to listen and understand why.

[Jaysonava]

Should we get rid of the thunderbird and replace it with a European name? Because white people drive them?

[NamerOfStars]

So they got rid of the Indian and kept the land? I seem to recall there being a fuss raised the last time that happened. I guess this is like Aunt Jemima- it doesn't matter HOW you portray minorities; depicting them at all is "offensive", and so the push we'll keep going until all mascots are white.

Stop being so sensitive. The company's decision has nothing to do with racism or 'removing the Native American culture from America.' There are other problems than this, like housing, healthcare, covid, and so on. I don't think most Native Americans themselves are offended, then why are you getting offended over such a silly thing? You know what would be offensive? ill-treating them or using derogatory terms to refer to them. Quit whining.

Nice, we can focus on that but fail to help out our citizens with real life issues such as housing... jobs and other things that matter. I fail to see how a fully covered Native American female logo is offensive.

[kyleelyn199723]

I think people are just sensitive and have nothing better to do in life so they complain about stuff that really has no affect on them at all

[Nick473]

Its a reoccurring thing. Im not sure it applys to this but The issue is that they are calling things evil/ racest and bad etc when they aren't and culture is shaping to that by erasing itself. If that happened anywhere else we would call that slandering and the government should stop dragging names through the mud for its own political agenda

[AdmiralSirJohn]

We are being offensive. Those on the political left (ALWAYS ON THE POLITICAL LEFT) are showing their racism and bigotry every time they do this. While not the case in every instance, the highest-profile instances (sports teams) were actually BLESSED BY NATIVE AMERICANS when they chose those names? It is only the bigotry of the liberal that is behind the sanitization (I call it the "Barneyfication") of America.

[najekim]

We knew a bunch is folks from Tribes and they really didn't give a shit about the logos and images unless it affected them directly. And some were fans of the Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves, and the Washington Redskins.

This removal of icons because some snowflakes and SJW crybabies has got to stop.

[Inexpensivefurniture]

Having native people on products is not native American culture. In fact, there is no such thing as "native American culture" because there are hundreds of different native groups in America, all with their own cultures.

[RolandCuthbert]

Why do you care whether or not you offend American Indians? Do you know any? I have friends who are Apache, Sioux, Cheroke, Lakota, etc. I still celebrate Thanksgiving. They call it Holiday Hell Day.

[Wester1967]

No just remove yourself from American culture and it will be a lot less offensive

[loveslongnails]

The Land of Lakes company made that decision on their own. They were not required to do so.

[Anonymous]

i'm offended that someone's offended and that probably offended someone else who is offended by this.

[slatyb]

We have to remove all white caricature of native American culture.

[Jaysonava]

Why? Why are you only allowed to depict your own culture?

[JimBeams]

Yes, even if the Indians don't want us to. It's for their own good, whether they like it or not.

How very entertaining.

[JimBeams]

The minority now control the majority.

[AHary]

You are anonymous. So a big fat NO to you.

[darkcloud1945]

I see the assholes are thinking again

[BlackManIsGod]

as long as the butter's inside couldn't care less

[ktttt]

i think this should be decided native americans

[Jaysonava]

Do the Chinese have to check in with you before they draw an American?

[JimBeams]

I agree with you, but the woke doesn't care about their opinions.

[Iron_Man]

No it’s ridiculous

[ItsMeItsMe1989]

Right though?
