Asking the important questions...

I've got a good name they can take:

Two Horses And a Pig

[Copper]

Yes, the name is racist, hurtful, and offensive

But I believe they are woke

Shouldn't that fix it?

Welp, name changed.

[Mik]

I don't know what is stupider, renaming the band or the writer deeming Little Feat's Dixie Chicken album country rock.

Damn.... he only missed it by 36 years.

Nobody really gives a shit what they call themselves any more.

The Dixie Chicks drop "Dixie."

But still keep sexist "Chicks."

Apparently not woke enough.

The Dixie Chicks have officially dropped the “Dixie” from their name. The iconic country-pop trio of Natalie Maines, Emily Strayer, and Martie Maguire are now simply called “The Chicks,” changing their website URL and their Instagram handle to the new name on Thursday.

On their website, the trio only offered this statement: “We want to meet this moment.” In a press statement, they added, “A sincere and heartfelt thank you goes out to ‘The Chicks’ of [New Zealand] for their gracious gesture in allowing us to share their name. We are honored to co-exist together in the world with these exceptionally talented sisters. Chicks Rock!”

A great example of my beef with this moment. If folks weren't "woke" enough before, and suddenly they are because of "this moment", ok... egg on their face. My respect for black lives, as part of my respect for all lives, has not changed. If you change things now just because of the social pressure, it's time to grow a backbone or admit you were ignorant and/or racist before.

Wow.

Now Lady A(ntebellum) is suing the other Lady A.

[Horace]

Should have renamed themselves Lady Antifa.

Or Queen Antifa, that has a good ring.

How about Queen Antifat?

Of course, I would love their music, you would find it offensive.

You'll see who's on the right side of history in the coming famine and me with my built-in power packs. My body has stored more calories than you could ever possibly imagine.
