But you see one of them is about erasing ingenious peoples history (the Mexica/Aztec) - where the other is about forcing PoC to look at racial stereotypes - so one is cool and fun and the other is woke and bad 😤
Rules for thee but not for me
The motto for every right wing authoritarian nut job is always the same, “I want to be king of the universe and say and do whatever I want and everyone should serve me”
I don’t know the right label for it, but I don’t think it’s quite hypocrisy. They’re mad when names are changed out of respect for another person. Any action like this out of consideration of others is “woke” to them. It’s an unnecessary display of weakness to change something because it offended someone to them. What we’re doing now is changing a name out of spite, a blatant disrespect, which is an action they value. Saying “fuck you Mexico, America deserves the name” is better than “people are offended at the name redskin so now we need to come up with something else” to them.
They’re such gross people…
Im summary, it’s a “Fuck you” rather than a “Sorry, I’ll change it”
This is really the root of my issues with Trump and Trumpists.
Like, the whole policy sucks. But it’s rooted in disrespect. Complete lack of respect and tact in all regards. Of each other and of the system itself. Incredibly selfish. Not just Trump but the people who support them. My 5yo is better behaved, and that’s saying a lot.
Don’t forget that mountain.
