I think people who say statements like yours could very well be accused of racism. Do you really believe that there should be different standards in society based on skin color?

We have seen the offended have items with certain wording and symbols removed from stores, certain children's books banned, brand names changed, etc. So whats the problem with discussing these offensive products?
Fair enough.

Edit: just so you know that's also capitalism.

It’s a clothing line being sold at Target. They aren’t “Target’s t-shirts”. If it moves units it goes on the rack.

C’mon my white people. Click a few buttons on your Google machine.

I don't think it would be safe for a white kid to wear a shirt that says My black people. It should have a first statement. This is a creepy woke shirt.

So if Target sells Klan T-shirts, that isn't on them because they didn't run the factory that makes them?

C'mon "whatever people", try to turn on more than one brain cell when trying to make flimsy arguments.

What would a Klan slogan look like? I think you need to run one by us.
