A new offense???
Apparently the perpetually offended have found a 'new' thing to be offended about...
Designers aren’t perfect. Sometimes a designer can create a logo or product that communicates a message that nobody intended to come through. Those mistakes can sometimes be embarrassing.
Bath & Body Works recently released a line of winter-themed candles just in time for Christmas shopping. One of the candles is called “Snowed In,” and the artwork on the outside of the jar is supposed to evoke those paper cut-out snowflakes that we call made as kids.
There’s one teeny-tiny problem with the artwork. Some people say that it looks like Ku Klux Klan hoods.

Now I'll be the first one to admit I don't shop there, and I don't 'do' candles unless they are emergency candles...
But I kinda doubt Bath & Body supports the KKK. After all, they obviously didn't 'see' the problem, nor did anyone else until it hit the shelves. I just have to wonder who jumped on this one and how it got such wide dissemination so quickly.
It's also interesting to note that Bath & Body immediately caved to the wokies, pulled the candle, and apologized. I just wonder if there will be a sacrificial firing to go with it?
You know what really scares me? These people vote... sigh...
I can kinda see where they got the idea, but I wouldn't be screaming over it. They also looked like a series of white alien heads too, so...*shrugs*
what scares me? not only that these people vote, but that there are so many of them! No wonder our country is going to H - e double hockey sticks in a hand basket!
Talk about grasping for offense. My first response: little aliens or those forest spirits from Princess Mononoke. You really have to reach to be offended about something like that. Somebody should have called out the design just for those two holes on each lobe looking like eyes (creepy!). Yes, these weTodds vote, but luckily there aren't many of them. I think this kerfuffle is probably a closed loop of moronic offense junkies getting a response from immature, over-woke people at Bath & Body Works.
