@pakman the daft thing is, many of these companies could still associate themselves with him (banks, AON etc) purely for the business, and I expect for privacy reasons most would be none the wiser, but instead they make a big sweeping public statement which then causes conflict with say 30% of the public, makes 33% happy and then the rest are like seriously, WTF!

Not sure this is right place for it, but Coon cheese, an 86 year old Aussie favourite, has been rebranded because of its racist connotations.
Founded by Edward William Coon, but now called ‘Cheer’.
Always made me laugh when I saw it on the shelf. Just my dark sense of humour

Maybe they thought he was always a fluffybunny to do business with but were scared to ditch him. Now they're just jumping on the bandwagon - or should that be deserting the sinking ship?

Brand name apparently after the founder. No racial connotations
Annoys me.

I can't see how calling it "Coon cheer" is going to hep matters.

Not sure that helps either, but for different reasons.

If I were Biden, I’d be inclined to pardon Trump.
It would be unexpected. And would give his most rabid supporters something to think about. And if that allows him to potentially run again that would see him remain as a potential nuisance for the GOP for the next 4 years. Very clever thinking....
