    The edit is significantly worse. Now it’s tied to the Simpsons and feels forced. Paleskins would be better than Paleface and the aggressively generic looking white guy of the previous logo was better.

      This got me thinking … If anyone has access to AI generator of some sort… what would the resulting image be if you asked…

      yeah I don’t feel like the redskins logo was making fun of native people in the way this edit clearly is poking fun at white ppl, the issue with the use of ‘redskin’ is that it is an offensive term and that it is inappropriate for white people to use the likeness of a race they oppressed and killed as a mascot

      but really, i don’t think there is any fair comparison.
