Aunt Jemima

Was never bad, woke asshole cancel everything they don't understand.

“I was, I was taken aback. I was really shocked. I knew people didn't realize that those were real people and, you know, to phase them out, would kind of erase their history,” Harris said.

‘She's just not a character ... I really want her legacy to be told. That this is a real person. And this was her recipe. And she fed the world from her flapjacks,” he said.

This kinda reminds me of when a bunch of white middle class Americans wanted Warner Bros to remove all the Speedy Gonzales episodes of Looney Tunes, citing it being offensive to Mexicans, and then actual Mexicans became pissed off because they loved the character.

Exactly, same as 'Latinx'. Woke assholes are only going along with the crowd and have no critical thinking skills.

This is the truth, downvoters should be fucking ashamed. Her family didn't think it was racist and protested her removal. Woke assholes made it happen and pat each other on the back for a job well done. Have some clue about what you're protesting or get fucked SJWs!
