Amazon changes logo. Because it resembled Hitler.

Math is racist, words are sexist, white men are evil and now Amazon is Hitler.

Here’s a link if you want to jump right into today’s nonsensical headlines: Linky Link

Apparently people were getting upset (natural in today’s world) over Amazons logo because it resembled Hitlers mustache. You read that correctly. I’d attach a picture but I’m on my phone and ATS doesn’t let me upload photos from my phone.

Anyway, not really much more to add to it. If there’s a plus side maybe this will get my wife to stop buying from Amazon.

This article doesn’t state whether this was a result of our never ending cancel culture, or just an internal correction to a bad design. But at no point did I ever think their logo was reflective of Hitler or Nazi Germany.

FedEx on the other hand....a whole lot of white privilege on those trucks.

I'm not upset when bad/dumb things happen to Amazon.

I noticed the change on my phone and iPad in the last 24 hours.

Funny, you’d think they’d change it because it looks like an erect penis.

Go figure, guess Hitler will have to do.

Damn, now I do see a hitler-stache and now I can't unsee it ☹

Idiots.
Complete idiots.

When I was a kid I saw bunnies in the clouds, but now I see only Hitler...Not sure what that means...

Well slick my hair and call me Dr. Seuss... I never even noticed the mustache.


Edit: Pepperidge Farm® remembers...🙄
Edit Edit: it's not racist because it's Michael Jordan.

Maybe now they’ll be prompted to pay taxes.

Sigh... aren’t there more important outrages for the easily offended to outrage at..?

I weep for the snowflake future

They already pay every cent of tax they owe. If you don't feel like they pay enough tax then call your Congress people and have them change the tax laws.

People will use any excuse to find something racist in everything.

I didn't associate Amazon with Hitler before, now I do.

They should have just left it alone.

Lol. Ok. If you say so.

After two straight years of paying $0 in U.S. federal income tax, Amazon was on the hook for a $162 million bill in 2019, the company said in an SEC filing on Thursday. Of course, $162 million is still just a fraction of the $13.9 billion in pre-tax income Amazon reported for 2019 — roughly 1.2%, in fact.

People really need to stop looking for things to be offended by.
Everybody is a damn victim.

I find this admonishment racist, fascist and offensive.

I hadn't thought about it before but now it does somewhat resemble a weeaboo Hitler. Some people have a strange imagination when they look at Rorschach blots and stuff. Then again I suck at those magic eye games.

Damn it Amazon, why?

Robert Mugabe had a Hitler moustache and he was great.

I dunno, the upside down Hitler logo seems more appropriate given their labour policies and general empire building.

Reminds me of the silicon valley show.
