Canada’s Girl Scouts Change The Name Of Their Brownies Because Racism. The New Name Is Completely LAME AF.

I was a Brownie when I was a little kid. I sucked at it, which is why I never advanced to Actual Girl Scouthood. Even back then, I was a person who avoided things that seemed like a lotta work. 🙂

Anyway, that’s not really important. What IS important, is that leftist woke ideology has permeated SO MUCH of the fabric of Western culture that Canada has decided the word “Brownie” is offensive and must be changed because of its racist connotations.

Here’s what the Canadian Girl Scouts (The GirlGuides) gave as their rationale for the name change: “‘With this new name we’re showing girls that what they say matters, and that Girl Guides is a place for everyone to belong.” But wait. There’s more.

THEY’RE GONNE BE CALLED EMBERS, you guys. OMG. The spokesperson explained further, “‘This wasn’t just about a name or its origin. This was about the fact that girls experienced racism and felt that they weren’t welcome in Girl Guides.”

They had to turn off comments on that tweet, presumably because reaction was similar to what our own Rachel’s was when I shared a link to this story in our group chat earlier today. She said, and I quote, “IT’S A DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE PASTRY CUBE F*CK OFF.”

She couldn’t be more right. Brownies ARE also delicious chocolate pastry cubes, and those cubes DO NOT NEED A NAME CHANGE.

CHICKS ON THE RIGHT

    Will they call it an “Ember Alert” if one of them goes missing in the woods while on a camping trip?

    Who is “brownie” offensive to? Diabetics? The faerie folk? Cleveland football fans?

    So following that “logic”, is the word ‘brown’ racist? How about ‘red’ or ‘yellow’? And if those words are racist, how about ‘green’ which could be racist against fictional people from Mars?

    You know that part in the Bible that talks about sparing the rod and spoiling the child? Me thinks there has been a LOT of rod sparing lately.

    Good grief, clearly the demand of racism has dramatically outclassed the supply when they are resorting to memory holing “Brownies”
