PJ Media - Land O Lakes Indian Maiden Bows to Political Correctness
2020-04-17
[PJ] The politically-correct crowd has claimed another scalp.

Quietly and without fanfare, the makers of Land O Lakes butter rubbed out the lovely maiden that was the centerpiece of the company's logo for 100 years.

In the middle of the logo now is a big zero.

That stands for the amount of sense that it makes to get rid of a lovely image that offended few if any Native Americans, for whom it was supposedly removed.

"You know who loves being represented in American culture? According to a survey of 4000 Native Americans by NAGA, Native Americans do," the red-headed libertarian tweeted. "You know who doesn’t love Native Americans being represented in American Culture? Woke suburban white women."

This gal?

That's a nice tablecloth she's wearing in that one pic.

#8  What's it called, "virtue signalling" or some such nonsense? It really is pathetic.

#7  The politically-correct crowd has claimed another scalp.

*sigh* I wish someone would explain a few things to the moron executives so desperate to be "hip" (or "woke", or whatever the hell the current equivalent is):
(1) the "politically correct" crowd consists of about five guys in their mom's basement running an army of bots.
(2) if you don't engage and just ignore them, they'll eventually move on to the next "outrage".
(3) if you give in, you're marked forever as an easy target.
(4) giving in will immediately piss off half of your customers, who may find other choices on the shelf.

#3  Just one more product I won't purchase any longer. And that's just it. Where was the outrage from the Native American community? I never heard it. Just stupid.
