[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the problem, in this case, is that[b] the DC baseball team has a name that has taken on racist connotations,[/b] and needs to be changed. [/quote]

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? [/quote]

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. [/quote]

Ha!  This must create a great moral dilemma for DC Millennial-Progressives when they fly from our close-in Airport.  They can't bear to call it Reagan, but now they no longer can use National.  Or the horror![/quote]

You didn't actually read what I said, did you?
