It’s not allowing those people to be advisors to the President that’s the problem. The problem is that this President will only allow advisors who tell him what he wants to hear. It’s a confirmation bias that affects the highest level and biggest decisions that need to be made for the country.

Blood libel is the term given to the myth in the Middle Ages that Jews would murder non-Jews and use their blood in food and in rituals. Blood libel = hysterical, irrational antisemitism basically. Accusing Israel of genocide of the Palestinian people is not irrational given everything we’ve seen.

Let’s nevermind the fact that the chief in the logo is wearing a headdress that an Algonquin (the tribe that gives the name Massapequa) would never have worn. You’re not honoring Native Americans by assuming they’re all the same. It’s straight up ignorance.

3) It's really incredibly ironic how bent out of shape people get about these types of names and traditions being taken away when they are only in a position to do so because the land and customs of the people they seek to "honor" was once taken away in an even more meaningful and life-altering way

2) It's not about "honoring" the Native Americans who once lived there and named the place. If it were, the mascot/logo wouldn't be wearing the headdress of a tribe thousands of miles away.
saltbagel.bsky.social (@saltbagel.bsky.social) reply parent
Couple of things: 1) the name Massapequa isn't the "Native American" word for anything. It's an Algonquin word, one of hundreds of Native American tribes with their own language. That's like saying that "water" is the European word for the substance that makes up the ocean.
