Saucony is too woke.

Feel free to let me know what shoes you are running in. This should be good.

Atreyu. Love them. You?

Many people have been boycotting Nike or Amazon for years over bad practices like this. But the racists aren't boycotting about that. They just don't like anti-racist messages whoever it comes from. It could be from the most ethical business in the world and they'd still find a problem with it.

Maybe they are just tired of being called racist over and over and over again from the Left. You know, the party that has failed the POC miserably.

"How to be an antiracist" is actually a great book and you should for sure read it.

You should definitely read it, not because it's a great book, but in order to fully understand ethnonarcissism.

You are not the center of the universe. Why do you assume anti racist messages are directed at you? Unless of course you hold the exact opinions they are opposing.

You are from the Left, so you are part of the center of the universe and do get to tell me how to feel (and think). I am what some would refer to as Redneck, but not racist.

Which party tries to suppress the POC vote? Which party loves confederate participation monuments? That is failing POC miserably.

I’m sorry saucony hurt your feelings.

Which party has hearded POCs into inner cities, giving them just enough benefits to keep their vote, but not enough to help them get ahead? . Which party champions abortion that is not only legal, but free? Which community of people does this harm the most? Which party thinks that POC are too dumb to think and speak for themselves? I don't wear Saucony.

Then anti racist messages aren't directed at you.

If someone says "using the N word is racist". I just think I don't use that word so I don't need to take any notice. Just chill.

Ah, so you've only been running for a year. Makes sense.

I train in Bostons and race in Takumi Sen or Next%, depending on the race. Good luck with your Atreyus, though.

I don't really run. I'm a hobby jogger. Thanks.

Ah yes the whole I know better than they do projection.

Enjoy your loss.

Being kind of a snowflake here.

So on two separate occasions you received an email that you didn't like and that is enough to make you not buy their shoes?

If you had any ability to self reflect you may have stopped yourself from writing this post. But apparently you do not. Somewhat ironic. The fact you choose to come here and complain about this, I mean, you may want to talk to a therapist about it. Though you do not need one tell you that if you are offended by those types of messages, you might be a racist.

Sounds like a great campaign. The running community needs to diversify and attract different groups of people from different backgrounds. It is an activity that is painfully primarily white and/or wealthy.

I have a feeling that you would be advocating a boycott if the company had recommended bible reading or watching a documentary about Trump.

Assuming there was some relevance on that day or something I don't see why I would care about. Is this what you do with your life? Imagine that others are as miserable and reactionary as you?

the people that run Saucony are absolutely pigs. All the good people left for good reason. Anyone who has worked for that company over the past 10 years knows exactly what I'm talking about.

No reaction on my part. I am fine with private companies doing whatever they choose to do.

So maybe tomorrow would be the logical day to send out the recommendation to watch a Trump Documentary detailing all of the great things he did while in office. Christmas would be the day to recommend everyone read the bible.

Don’t cry bro.
