Default The Red Baron

This just struck me about Red Baron Pizza. How, in today's woke/cancel culture climate, could you name a product after a man who shot down at least 80 allied airplanes and who fought for a country that basically started WWI.
No doubt an honorary man in history, but essentially, an enemy of the rest of the world and a killer.
They pulled Uncle Ben's rice and Aunt Jemima Syrup....who were portrayed as kind black people who knew their shit. They didn't kill people.

How could something like Red Baron Pizza be allowed to fly in today's climate?
I'm glad it is, because censorship sucks.

What's next? Hitler's Gas Oven Pizza?

IMO the Baron is just a guy that was on the other side of the family dispute that caused WWI. Not the same as the German liberal democrats that murdered a race in WWII

Knowing history has never been a strong suit for the woke.

Why do American Jews vote Democrat when the Democrats are anti-sematic?

I guess because, like all Democrats, they are on autopilot and vote the party line, even if it means jumping off of a cliff.

To go with that, why do inner city residents vote for the same dishonest POSs than have robbed them blind for the past 60+ years.

illegals who come through our Southern Border claim political asylum, which we know is a lie, they come here 100% for economics.
Given both reasons, it is more truthful to state they are leaving corrupt regimes whose endgame is socialism.

BUT, they vote dem once they get amnesty,,, basically they vote for the same party that destroyed their country and uprooted their families.

Japanese cars and German are better made. I've owned Japanese cars and German cars since 1983. I have one DIL that is a gook and another one that is a Chink. And i watch Archie Bunker reruns all day long

Also, pictures of said slope heads.

Gook=Vietnamese
Chink= Chinese

I have many friends of both persuasions. Almost to a 'T' all are smart, responsible, ethical, hard-working and honorable people. Which is why they don't get any 'affirmative action' credits for tests or exams like the blacks.

I'm just waiting for RedBaronx2. Figure this was a new feature of the site, along with ADog trolling all you about slopes.

I was wondering about that when I was posting. Thank you for straightening that out, and many more thanks for using the correct version of 'wrong' in '
Wrong-o' !

Wrong-o

Gook – A derogatory slur for Vietnamese and East Asians. It was originally used by the United States Armed Forces during wartime, especially during the Vietnam War.

I was being sarcastic. My DIL's are more to me like my own daughters. Very good wives to my son's. Both very successful. People need to drop the Archie Bunker mindset.

That's what I'd thought hearing it from a few of my friends who were there.
I know (knew) a LOT of guys who are now gone or in their 70's-80's who used that term if you could get stories out of them. Most were airplane mechanics over there, but a couple got the real shit detail, Army Infantry and Marine recon outfits. Life and death stuff daily, mostly death. I don't think any of them 'healed' from it 100%. The ones who died later all got cancer, IMO from Agent Orange.
