Good. Now, let’s get rid of every indian name associated with cities, towns, mountains, creeks and streams.... shameful to name things after indians.
To: knighthawk

the companies don't want any trouble in the future so our culture must change everything...

I never liked Eskimo Pies. But, changing the name is ridiculous, just more virtue signaling. I hope people stop buying them and teach the company a lesson.

The political correctness and re-naming of things is currently pretty trendy — but I’m not that Inuit.

It is NOT virtue signaling. The company is simply doing the intelligent thing to avoid trouble/lawsuits from the left.
Face it, the right has done NOTHING to protect the victims of the left. If you don’t bend the knee to leftism, you get destroyed.
Prove me wrong.

Political correctness is destroying and distorting our culture. For the love of god...

Were the Eskimos offended or just some nutballs?

Why is the name derogatory? Is it racist to think that Eskimos might eat ice cream? Do companies give their product a name that they think is derogatory?
