Absolutely agree 100%.

Serious question: would it be offensive if white was upper case while black was lower case?

Agree it’s a silly thing to get wound up about though. My kids are mixed race, so what would they be? I’m hoping for cursive.
He was trying to bait me into answering why I was offended by the Bud Light ad campaign.

I agree with your stance though on the subject you responded to.

And just like Nike, I will never spend another dime on either product and that's all I need to justify. I couldn't care less what kind of beer you drink or what shoes you wear. You do you.
what, specifically, about it offended you?

I was trying to “bait you” into explaining an opinion of yours. How awful that must be for you.

exactly. It won’t be answered. Most likely because you either don’t know or don’t want to know what the ad campaign that “offends you” actually was.

Don't be so disingenuous, you're always antagonistic here. From recent posts about "learning curve" to this. You have a long and jaded history of baiting certain posters here. It's not lost on many of us that are not as active as you and CBreezy etc

BRCC product is ***. I wouldn't give that junk to my dog. What does that have to do with JB and his statement?
