Evergreen trees are racist!

Oh yea, this is after they already decided "Trojans" was somehow controversial and bad. Guess they hate the Greeks, or safe sex - unclear at this point.

We are fucking doomed. /smack forehead

I've always pictures oak trees as lynching trees. Evergreens have too much fluff

Because no one in the history of the world has ever been lynched from an evergreen.

But this is what happens when you give people power or a platform and their only expertise is always being outraged.

Even if evergreens were used to lynch people, why would that make a difference here? This is quickly turning into militant atheist's logic: "It's not fair if I have to SEE a cross! Religious freedom! Remove it!"

The Greeks were known to be pedophiles, so dropping Trojans is excellent. They should have changed it to Legionaries or Centurions or Romans.

Evergreen trees don't generally have branches to support a human's weight in the first place. I mean, some assuredly do, but the ones pictures wouldn't.

Nope. They were the original colonialists.

So were most everyone in the 1700s and before. 1800s weren't much better. 1900s saw some progress. (If you apply todays standards to history)

So I suppose we need to start naming things in binary. Oh wait, apparently math is racist too.. so that's out. I find it hilarious who is funding this idea - https://mynorthwest.com/2604518/rantz-bill-and-melinda-gates-foundation-bankrolls-math-is-racist-lunacy/?

Any idea why a man who made his billions, and controls so much because of math and science, would want people to think that way about math? I can only think of one, and it involves a hand stroking a white cat with the persons face out of the frame.

Boy banging and homosexuality was actually a massive part of the Spartan military. Being on the receiving end, and then later either end, was closeted largely around 300 AD.

Was referring more to the pedophile aspect. Getting married at 13, 14, 15, etc. I should have been more clear.
