Poll: 9 Out of 10 Native Americans Aren't Offended by "Redskins"
POLL: 9 OUT OF 10 NATIVE AMERICANSAREN'T OFFENDED BY "REDSKINS"May 19, 2016Daniel Greenfield
In a sane and rational world, this would end the manufactured controversy. But this was always a manufactured controversy spun by white lefties looking for a new cause in between gay marriage and men in women's bathrooms. About the only Native Americans interested in this were a handful of lefty activists with no obvious tribal links and a rather dubious casino boss highly controversial within his own tribe.
And it turns out, unsurprisingly, that actual Native Americans don't care.
Q: The professional football team in Washington calls itself the Washington Redskins. As a Native American, do you find that name offensive, or doesn't it bother you?
The Post poll asks.
90 percent are not bothered by it. 9 percent are.
A racial slur would not produce these results. Redskins is not a racial slur.
Native Americans on a reservation are less likely to be bothered by Redskins than those off a reservation. And, predictably, college graduates are somewhat more likely to be offended. Not as Native Americans, but as indoctrinated leftists.
Even among Native Americans who identify as Democrats, the level of offense only hits 14 percent. Among Native American liberals, it only hits 19 percent. There really, really is nothing here.
When 80 percent of liberal Native Americans are not offended by Redskins, just maybe it's not offensive. But this won't stop angry white hipsters from declaring boycotts anyway.
