It seems we are trying to get rid of all symbols of past offenses. People want schools, streets, cities, teams, to be renamed. The Democrat party was the party of slavery, segregation, kkk, Jim Crowe, etc. So I’m just surprised that the woke sjw haven’t gone after the name Democrat party. As in renaming the party to something else, not abolishing it. Although seeing their stance at abolishing police, I’m surprised they aren’t going for that since it’s also an existing entity.

As for the supposed southern strategy, let’s assume that myth is true (you can find on duck duck go how it’s been debunked). It still doesn’t change the fact that it was the Democrat Party that was for all those racist things and whose name still exist. They are going after names of people who were racist or otherwise treated people unfairly regardless of any understanding of them in today’s world. The fact is that the GOP has never been for anything of the racist institutions the D party was for. In fact, it’s the complete opposite. And they get rid of their racist like the Iowa congressman. The D’s had kkk Cyclopes in their party in the not too distant past. The point being that it’s the D party that is historically and factually associated with racism.

Lastly, like I said, the free market will decide this. Of course corporations are part of the free market. Where on my post did you assume I meant anything else other than some confirmation bias on your part. I don’t know the ownership structure of this team but assuming it’s a single person ownership, it’ll come down to whether he can still make a profit without sponsorships, or if he can’t, whether he is wealthy enough to care. Again, free market.
