    But how is the term Redskins offensive?

    Why did nobody give a shit until a few years ago? Even when the lawsuit was filed in 2006, it didn't catch on until pretty recently. The team has been called the Washington Redskins since 1937. There has been plenty of time to drum up some faux outrage. It's a little late now.
    Why did America suddenly give a shit about slavery when it had been a rich tradition in the country for 80 years?

    90% of Native Americans say TDGAF about the name.

    Objective citation needed.

    Post #11 in this thread... plus I have copy pasted it in another one too.

    I am not disagreeing the term is actually offensive... Yellowskins, Blackskins, Forskins (LOL!) wouldn't fly as a name in sports these days. Whiteskins probably would be ok.

    All I am saying is NA don't actually give a fuck about the name. If the majority did then something would have changed by now. Now all we have is a bunch of people who aren't Native American telling everyone they should be REALLY offended by this.
    Hi there. When does the American government ever do anything for Native Americans other than let them build casinos and sell fireworks?

    You're the one who is advocating for never changing long traditions, no matter how fucked up they might be.

    Why did you even ask for the citation if it wasn't going to make a difference? Lol.

    My money is on The Portland Wiggers vs the Fargo Fags in the 2025 Superbowl.
