Reply to comment by BigBobby2016 in TIL that due to anti-Chinese sentiment in San Francisco in the late 19th century, Levi's jeans briefly held the slogan "The only kind made by white labor" on its logo. by lemming-leader12

I’m lucky enough to live in a part of the US where our regional culture doesn’t revolve around blue jeans, alcoholism and spousal abuse, sorry my bad

Hey, any reason would do to let your hate and stereotypes out, right?

Sheesh…I live in Massachusetts and our regional culture doesn’t revolve around those things either.

Lol…we do revolve around education though, as well as not being douches that would write “sorry my bad” without realizing that made them look like douches

Bro you post in r/Philadelphia. The fuck do you mean your culture doesn't revolve around alcoholism and violence?

I’m sorry where the fuck did that come from? I learned it in California where it happened, and it was framed as the story of how the Californian Gold Rush and ensuing immigration led to innovation by those immigrants in creating brands we recognize and value today, like Ghirardelli chocolate and Boudin Sourdough Bread. It’s an immigrant success story and emblematic of the best case scenario of what America has to offer. I’m sorry you don’t think that’s important just because some of the people who wear these pants are shitty, but those people probably aren’t teaching that they were invented by a Jewish immigrant either.

You sure? Because you sure are judging people blindly just like someone who liked all those things would.

Or did your tiny little ego get hurt because you learned something you didn’t already know?
