The Left Is Now Triggered By Cotton [Wish this were satire, but no]

For the left, the microaggression du jour is cotton, apparently.

Last week, a woman by the name of Daniell Rider slammed Hobby Lobby in a Facebook post over an innocuous display of cotton in vases.

“This décor is WRONG on SO many levels,” she wrote. "There is nothing decorative about raw cotton. A commodity which was gained at the expense of African-American slaves.”

"A little sensitivity goes a long way. Please remove this décor," she added.

I hope they "trigger" themselves to an early grave.

Help out any way you can.

She is a known activist and was out “trolling”

People on twitter get triggered by Senator Tom Cotton too.
(”LOGAN ACT!”).

The left can stop wearing anything with cotton in it.

When they catch up with Daniell, put her back on her meds, lock her up and throw away the key.

Winter is coming let them run naked.

Hypothermia and the flu will solve this problem.

Perhaps, but the article also mentioned another "incident" where people were "triggered" by a cotton stalk table centerpiece.

These loons are everywhere.

Roy Clark: I never picked cotton

Humorous how these incidental things do indeed trigger these losers.

I think a bag of 100 cotton balls can be purchased for a buck or tow.

No more cotton candy either!......................

The cotton plant is a beautiful act of nature.
It serves to remind us where most cloth comes from.
If someone is determined to see the worst association wherever they look, they will find what is sought, even if done via far fetched association.
In other words; Screw these hysterical infants, and their imaginary battlefields!

There is nothing decorative about raw cotton.

Yep! I picked cotton in Mississippi when I was a child.

Doesn’t bother me!

I also picked cucumbers one summer!

Imagine that!.....................

Those guys were ahead of the game.

They knew enough to pick their own cotton.

[SamAdams76]

Anybody wearing anything with cotton is enabling slavery!

[Red Badger]

I have grown cotton as a decorative plant in my yard!

It makes beautiful blossoms, like hibiscus!.................
