Washington Redskins will NEVER change name

[cwolff]

I find the Wizards insensitive.

I also don't like the yankees, the phillies, the steelers, the cowboys, the indians, the pirates, ... well.. EVERY non animal team in the entire world. I demand they all be changed.

There Cwolff.. I agree with you. ALL names should be changed to animals.. but then that could be bad too. Huskies.. hmm.. Husky is a term used to describe overweight people.. they are "husky" so a female basketball team called the "huskies" could be insensitive. Can't have that now can we. Hell, Husky is a dog as well, so you are also calling them dogs.. or bitches!! Talk about insensitive.

Thanks for posting that. It exemplifies the underlying issue. When one's worldview is binary that person will always have a struggle between what he/she wishes and reality because reality isn't binary. It's not black and white. The world is nuanced there are shades of grey. The thing that keeps tripping you up is that you classify people or issues into one of two camps. The camps are "US" and "THEM". It's basic ingroup|outgroup stuff. If you can let go of that, and I know it can be scary, a whole new world will open up to you. You'll be able use your judgement and your intellect instead of constantly just reacting. I think you'll be happier too.
