    racism is so evil...how people can live with so much hate for others because they’re different, I’ll never know

    humans are tribal
    unless they have higher thinking and think of the species first
    racism cannot end

    species, planet, technology, resources

    this might take few hundred or thousands of years

    look at saudi arabia
    women just are able to drive now

    thousands of years dude

    Honest question, does someone have examples of black people used as product logos that aren't racist or offensive?

    Regarding the Darlie toothpaste, it used to be called Darkie, which I believe is offensive. Now that it is called Darlie, is it no longer offensive, or still offensive since the name is still close to Darkie? Is there anything offensive with the picture? I think the older logo was definitely more offensive, but I'm curious what is offensive about the current version.

    On a side note, I was surprised to find out the brand is owned by Colgate. I had just figured it was a local brand.

    Surprisingly there aren't that many left.
    Katy Perry shoes
    Zara will eventually release something, i.e PJs with the star of David

    Speaking of Pinstripe PJS,

    Football club Juventus decided to do away with the pinstripes because they resembled what every race in the U.S hates equally...referees.
    That was the club's reasoning.

    Thats a stretch because it's two different types of cereal. The proper comparison doesn't work. Here is Cocoa Krispies..still three white elves.
