They are Alaskan-Americans
LOL - I saw what you did there!
As far as I’ve been able to find, ALL local stores stopped carrying these last year:

Lets rub noses like the ........?
It took them this long?

The problem is that there is no official notice that a word has been designated racist. In order for the new fascist government to begin prosecution proceedings, there needs to be posted on a government website a full, up to date and accurate list of words that are grounds for prosecution, along with the groups that are exempt from prosecution.
Then all we law-abiding citizens can regularly consult the list and adjust our speech and thoughts accordingly.

“That is why progressives have been erasing our language one word at a time, boxing us into an ever smaller corner of what they decide should be permissible.”
Progressives are only partly to blame. The rest of the blame should be assigned to those who comply with their nonsense.
As a child I partook of many of their pies that you feature in image number one. If only I knew how politically incorrect I was as a child enjoying Felix the Cat cartoons featuring Vavoom!
I was at a party probably over 20 years ago and there was a white guy there that was offended by any white person who rapped and thought it should be outlawed.
Actually there’s nothing “is now” about it. Been that way for decades. Of course being a group that don’t enter into conversation much most folks haven’t found out.
America was paradise when I was a kid!
For several decades, official FedGovCan speak has referred to ‘Eskimos’ as ‘Inuit’ and those in the Western part of Canada’s North apparently refer to themselves as ‘Inuvialuit’. Expect that ‘PC speak’ to follow within FedGovUS.
If I had have been smart 30-40 years ago, I would have started a company that would lobby for name changes related the ‘First Nations’ PC ‘industry’, then do the printing of new, PC letterhead and the production of signs with the new PC signs for all these new names. I could have been a wealthy man by now.
When I was a kid, the ‘Native’ (now known as ‘First Nation’, formerly known as ‘Indian’) ‘reserve’ (aka ‘reservation’ in the US) that lies near Cornwall, ON and borders NY State and the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec was called ‘Caughnawaga’ (pronounced ‘Cog-na-wah-ga’). It then became known as ‘Kahnawake’ (pronounced as ‘Can-a-wah-kee’). This is certainly not the only example. Another example, one of many, is the ‘Siksika’ reserve (Formerly known as the ‘Blackfoot’ reserve).
Of course the PC ‘industry’ is not limited to those that live on ‘reserves’. Driving a school bus, my students are LABELED by the Board of Education as ‘complex needs’ students. Previously, these kids were labeled ‘special needs’ and when I was a kid, they were labeled ‘special education’ students. When I was a kid, there were far fewer students who fit that ‘category’. Of course, it is in the interests of the socialists to ‘label’ everyone, so they can better control them.
As long as America is a free society...this infringement on the First Amendment deserves the trash basket.
In Canada people who are neither Inuit or Metis are called by their tribal affiliation, Aboriginal Canadians, or a First Nations member. In Canada the term Eskimo was falling out of favor 50 years ago.
I don't remember meeting you there. :^)
