You're oppressing Native Americans.

 

And Elizabeth Warren...which, honestly, is just fine.

I will invoke the Snyder rule.

I thought he was just trying to make face covers great again.

Do they come in other colors? Sounds like a handy turtle neck to WOW IT GOT COLDER option. 

 

....or, it’s cold at the game, but I still need a “drink hole”.

That's just lack of judgement. They're Italian, maybe weren't aware but it looks racist as all get out. How can you not see it lol. Makes people look like Samba cartoons.

 

I'm sure they had different colors or whatever, but that model looks absolutely insane in the black and red one.

 

They're also just ugly and weird which is offensive to my fashion sense.

In general what percent of the population can afford to drop $850 for a sweater?

 

Im always astonished reading the prices of very very high end clothing 

 

Theres great livings to be made by separating stupid people with too damn much money from some of it.  I went to a few of these stores when I was in Chicago last year.  We went to Louis Vatton because my daughter wanted to look at backpacks.  There was zero chance she’d be getting one, but I let her look.  The clothes, etc. were nothing special.  The largest backpack was not big and the small and medium weren’t even big enough to be functional. Basically the merchandise there were all just uber expensive billboards for their logo.  A way for people to show off by telling the world “Hey, look what I can afford!”  It was shameful.  I felt dirty. 

 

On the original subject of the sweater my first two thoughts were that it looked both incredibly stupid and pretty racist.

Maybe any publicity is good publicity?

Up until about three years ago, that seemed to be the philosophy.

I always figured that a plain t-shirt was worth $10.  If a manufacturer wants to slap their oversized brand logo on it, I better get said t-shirt for no more than $5.  I had better get something for the free advertisement.

My biggest takeaway from that is, WTF is a 'social media influencer'?  

Slang for Russian bot I think.
