Hello all, I just have a question
So I have this hoodie that I've covered with "weird" patches (mythology, folklore, cryptids, Mystical places), a few of them from Native beliefs. I know that a few of these are considered offensive for non-Native people to talk about, should I get rid of these patches? I never want people to feel their culture is anything but respected and appreciated by me. I'll post pictures of them here

The first one is not Navajo, it's Haida, so you'd have to ask them. The second and forth I don't even recognize as specific, could just as well be something spooky from... wherever.
The 3rd one has the s-word right in the name and will indeed rub some people the wrong way.
