A Perfectly Appropriate Name

February 2, 2022

The NFL’s Washington Wokeskins just announced the new name for the team:  The Washington Commanders.  No, not those commandments but more like:  Wear a Mask!  Shut Down Your Business!  Keep Your Kids Home from School!  Shut Up and Pay Up at the Gas Pump!  You’re Fired!  You’re Censored!  No Mask, No Airplane Seat for You!  No Amazon Sales for You, You Deplorable Dissenter!

You oppose teenage boys in dresses raping little girls in school bathrooms, do ya?  You’re a Transophobe!  And probably a racist as well!

You don’t think Supreme Court justices should be appointed according to skin color instead of merit?  No job for you, law professor!

You want free speech on campus?  You’re expelled, white male heterosexual oppressor!

You don’t want nuclear war with Russia?  Russian spy!  Traitor!

UPDATE:  Now that the Redskins have been politically castrated, the commie Left’s puritanical busybodies have announced that their next targets will be the Kansas City Chiefs and the Atlanta Braves.  Will Whitey Ford be kicked out of the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame?
