Should the Nationals be renamed?

[Anonymous]

And the problem, in this case, is that the DC baseball team has a name that has taken on racist connotations, and needs to be changed.

Only in the minds of some crazy liberals.

Let's change the name of.....

The National Geographic.... how about - A Magazine about Animals and Places
The National Weather Service..... how about - Rain, Snow, Sleet, Hail, Wind and Weather across the Nation (or are we getting rid of "nation" too?)
National Car Rental..... how about - The Other Car Rental Place
The National Mall .. how about - The Quad in the Capitol

Do you know how ridiculous you sound?

Yep. The Washington Socialists. I'm sure some liberals in DC would LOVE that name.
Ha ha.

That is really YOUR problem. You need to get over it.

+100. It's probably time to think about a new therapist.

Methinks you’re smoking too much of DC’s decriminalized weed.

Rename the team the Washington Reagans and let’s move on!

You've got to be the dumbest person on a site overrun with imbeciles.

No liberals I know, crazy or otherwise, want to change the name of the Nationals, or any other institutions called national. While "White nationalism" and isolationism have definitely made many young people think of nationalism negatively in a political context, that has not transferred to anything else that I can see. AFAICT this entire thread is trolling.
