False equivalencies are always a great fallback.
Me equating native Americans to other groups of people is "false equivalence", but lumping them in with "sub human" groups is righty-o? Because of their "ethnicity"?
I've frequently observed that liberal types are often the first to disparage the ones they claim to defend. Black police officers and public officials are called n*ggers, coons and uncle toms. Liberals will gleefully out homosexuals in the hope of wrecking their lives, and they have no problem extolling the virtues of prison rape upon people they don't like ... and now this. sigh. Native Americans are people. They are not animals. I can't even begin to fathom the mindset that would make that connection and then try to blame it on someone else. Then again, I am not a liberal.
All this and you didn't even answer my question. Would you name your team the Cleveland Blacks?
However, if I wanted to honor African Americans with the name of my team, and we lived in a sane world that wasn't populated by numbskulls poised to pounce on any perceived slight, I might consider the name Cleveland Blacks ... maybe something a tad more elegant. Ebony Warriors? You get the picture, I hope.
If you (liberals, in general) could put aside your innate prejudices then this horse-shit would go away. There would be no need for all the phoney virtue signaling. But you can't, so it won't.
BTW, rolling eyes are always wide open.
Me equating native Americans to other groups of people is "false equivalence",
Yes. You don't see the difference? Because I explained it in the first sentence. None of the groups you cited were ethnic groups, which is the core of the problem here.
Native Americans are people. They are not animals. I can't even begin to fathom the mindset that would make that connection and then try to blame it on someone else.
So you do understand the difference in context now? That's progress. Scary word for you, I know.

What are you talking about? Seriously, you lost me here.
phoney virtue signaling
Why is it virtue signaling? Why is it you're expressing an opinion and the other side is virtue signaling? To who? My real name sure as hell isn't ReyKahuka and I have no social media outlets to play to here. I can't gain followers or get street cred for my next media project or whatever your motivation would be for 'virtue signaling.' Who am I signaling to? Stop using stock arguments, start thinking. For the life of you, you can't understand why someone would care about an issue that doesn't affect them directly. They must be playing to an imaginary crowd on the enormously popular IMDb v2 sports message board.

Remember when you used to beg admin to ban DC Fan on the Marvel board? I told you to just ignore him, and you said you were 'fighting the good fight?' So were you 'virtue signaling', 'pouncing on a perceived slight', or expressing an opinion? And who seems more pathetic, a guy arguing in favor of human rights, or a guy trying to get a dude thrown off a message board because he was picking on his favorite movie? I'll let you decide. Everyone's a 'panty-waist' sometimes, eh?
I might consider the name Cleveland Blacks ... maybe something a tad more elegant. Ebony Warriors? You get the picture,
I definitely do. Thanks for answering my question, I don't think there's anywhere for this conversation to go at this point.
