As if we didn’t need more contentious issues to rise up in America in 2020, FedEx has asked the Washington Redskins to change their name because it’s supposedly offensive to Native Americans. It wasn’t prompted by an event. But it was likely felt as pressure from the Cultural Marxists either within or from the outside of FedEx that prompted their CEO, Fred Smith, to make the push. FedEx owns the naming rights to the Redskins’ stadium and Smith is a minority owner.
This is all part of the divisiveness the radical left is engaging in throughout the nation. Is this a response to outrage? Are Native Americans speaking out and calling the name offensive? Generally, no. In 2016, the Washington Post did a poll to find out if Native Americans were offended by the NFL team’s name. Nine out of ten said they were not. Fast forward to August, 2019, and WaPo tried to do the poll again. After all, “woke” culture has been spreading so they assumed more Native Americans would have come to their senses and realized they’re supposed to be outraged. They weren’t. Once again, nine out of ten Native Americans surveyed were not offended by the name. It’s as if they have better things to do than to cater to radical leftists and their woke demands.

Three years later WaPo polled the question again….and still found that 9 in 10 Native Americans aren't bothered by the name. https://t.co/NBSezrAEk7

The radical left is virtue signaling in the name of a people who have known true oppression. They’re a people who have a high rate of poverty and medical ailments. They generally don’t care about the progressive extremists and their social justice. If anything, this renewed push to speak out on their behalf should be considered offensive. There are much better ways to help the Native American communities than renaming a football team.
A far left advocacy group calling itself the @WashingtonPost (named after a slave owner!) pushes corporations to boycott Washington Redskins. https://t.co/U41blm6F9O

Republicans, particularly candidates, need to use this example as proof that corporate social justice warriors shilling for Democrats have the wrong narrative and a destructive agenda. Make Democrats and progressive leaders respond to the facts and watch them squirm. This is an opportunity for the GOP to pounce, as we detailed in the latest episode of the Conservative Playbook.
With food shortages coming, it’s a smart move to order organic, cooked, freeze-dried chicken for long-term storage from Prepper Organics.
This push by FedEx, mainstream media, Nike, and others to vilify the Washington Redskins organization is about forcing social justice on a people who have more important things to do than whine about a football team.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our SubstackĀ page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
