What the fluff? Sound off on claim that selling cotton is racist If it triggers people, it shouldn't be sold Of course it's racist. Cotton candy should be the next to go If the person offended says it's racist, then it's racist I don't think it is, but stores shouldn't sell it. Let's be sensitive Sometimes cotton is just cotton Does that mean my Marlboros are racist, too? It's nuts! This is 2017. Slaves didn't pick that cotton. Unionized agricultural workers earn decent wages harvesting it with massive cotton pickers It's the craziest thing ever. Cotton existed before there were ever slaves in the U.S. I'm amazed at how people get offended by everything now. We live in such a soft society I'm going to Hobby Lobby to buy this displayed cotton, and I hope it offends all these unhinged people I'd like to be 'sensitive' to these concerns and invite the offended people to send me their U.S. 'paper' currency, since it is 75% cotton Other View Results Loading ...
