Maybe if they didn't make crappy toys this wouldn't happen.

If I had to guess, I'd imagine it's one of the brothels in the red light district. Frankfurt has a pretty large and well known district and it's probably just a local business showing love for the home team. Same with the beer.

To paraphrase the haters guide to curling, there only ten professional curlers in the world, the Chinese men's and women's team.

Right, the US is definitely racist when it comes to sports...The NBA, MLB, NFL, NCAA, Summer Olympic Team, MLS, and Mens and Women's Soccer Teams bear this out with their lack of "dark faces."

I dunno, maybe because Russia isn't an inclusive society that embraces their own diversity thus making him look out of place? Maybe because despite the dozens upon dozens of ethnic groups residing there, only the ones who look they're out of a 50's propaganda poster get to play? Maybe because the image their…

I'm new to this saga. So he got fired for being a complete douche to his company's customers ( I understand its bad business to do that to people one wants to sell things to), then hit rock bottom by moving to SoCal and running his own company and telling us he's less douchey. How is this at all a redemption story?…

haha, brilliant!

I thought I was reading too much into this with all the "happy male and female couples; marriage is for procreation" subtle propaganda here. Then they played the Trololo song and realized the Russians are trolling the whole world.

Is not one going to bring up a European company being so tone-deaf as to name a clothing line "coconut power" after an athlete from the tropics?

India is the opposite of "up and up" when it comes to corruption, human rights, and graft.

Are you talking about having a symbol or mascot that is native, or specifically calling themselves "redskins"? I have never heard of the later.

That's what he said, they wouldn't be common and they would not be in positions of power. But pretending that they didn't exist at all would be equally false.

that's the joke

Or, someone is hyper sensitive about this topic. Phrasing the question in a way that makes you feel the most safe and secure is not indicative of less bigotry. I've been pretty clear that this more of "I don't get it" as opposed to "this is objectively bad." If your previous post is pretty much the trend for why…

I just finished watching Ken Burns' "The West" series and noticed that every time there was some anti native pogrom or campaign they were called "redskins" by Americans, and never once referred to themselves as such. The "proud nickname" argument is a fabrication.

George Allen is definitely despised in DC and in NoVA, and anyone from the Bush admin aside from Condi is considered a leper.

Bigoted? Please, I'm not intolerant at all of any of this, I just don't get it and I really do want someone to clue me in. Why can't I ask a fan of the show what they like about it? I obviously don't see what they are seeing and maybe I'm missing out. I am genuinely asking why people are so taken with it. What forum…

Okay, I'll do it. What DO you see in it? I noticed all the hype and got about 12 episodes in before I decided it definitely is not for me. The characters are all horrible, the story makes little sense, and they have bad habit of telling and not showing, which should be a cardinal sin for an animated show that can do…

That's because such information is considered to be, in legal circles, "fucking irrelevant."
