Imagine caring so much about brands. This guy calls himself a fucking soldier in the culture war too. The biggest loser I've seen in awhile https://twitter.com/duncan_colton/status/1365046763577626632

    Chief fuckin' Wahoo is astoundingly racist. The dude is cherry red. Anglos on vacation in Spain are closer in complexion to that stupid mascot than any actual Indigenous American. The hilarity of white people crying over changing that mascot is fucking evergreen to me. We finally managed to kill an "Indian" they actually cared about.

        It's a weird simulacrum doll anyways. Originally it was sold as parts to put on a real potato. Then they made a toy of the potato. So it's a toy of a crude potato representation of a human. Very weird if you dwell on it.

          Yeah apparently you can't just take the parts and put them on an actual potato, you gotta have a factory made plastic potato.

        The "Mr. Potato Head" branding was changed to a non-gendered "Potato Head" but the Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head characters still exist. It's a big ol pile of inconsequence

            I think the toy is gender neutral now but the Toy Story characters are still gendered?

                how the fuck is it even a thing still. i guess some things like that never die cause folks grew up on it and then buy it for their kids and the cycle repeats. It seems like something a kid would get bored of very fast. You can only do so many combinations? i have no idea really

    If I didn't know better, I'd say this was a stealth insult lol.

    That devil-looking Native American thing seems to be every single racial caricature rolled into one, it's impressive
