Should New England Patriots change their name because Patriot is dog whistle for racist?

[ColonelAngus]

We all know Patriot is a dog whistle for Nationalism, which is a dog whistle for White Nationalist, which is a dog whistle for White Supremacy, which is a bullhorn for racist.

All fans and players and management of the Patriots are misogynist homophobic transphobic Islamaphobic xenophobic racist if they disagree.

They should be the New England Football Players.

It might happen. You never know. The only safe names are animals and that could change too.

Don’t be a racist! You know it’s a racist name.

Fair question. That's the way things are now.

Animal appropriation.

PETA is surely pissed off about that.

Pardon the French, but in my opinion, they ought to change their name to "F*ck You, We're The Patriots."

Sure. I’d prefer the name be dropped entirely and there are no fucking parties whatsoever.

I am not happy with the Buccaneers or Raiders, either.

Pirates took slaves and were slave owners. Those names are offensive and should be removed.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Texans? More like, Racists! That name has to go!

 

[Justin Richardson]

The New England Patriots were known as the Boston Patriots before moving down to Foxborough, Mass after 1959 - they were part of the old AFL.

If they should change their name, maybe it should be call The New England Militia ....

 

[22lcidw]

San Diego Padres....religious?

 

[my2¢]

No, for reason obvious to more partisan fans they should change their name to "Cheaters".

Not the same thing.

Cleveland Indians, I mean...a no brained.

They should be renamed the Clevland river fires.

Kansas City Chiefs?

Gotta go. I am sure Pocahontas Warren would agree.

 

[petro]

Vikings?
Rape, pillage and plunder.

Actually not far from reality a few years ago when they led the league in DUI's and sexual assaults.
