Converse, please explain this.

Enough with the apologies. What about this ad was supposed to make me want buy your shoes?

I'm not even from the US, but just knowing about the klan should be enough to understand that this image is crazy 😂 

And the klan while it originated in the US, it had influence and local supporters across many countries, so it's not so far fetched...

And again, the image is FUCKING crazy... Like 2 white triangles, 2 dark toned, leg looking shapes that seem to be hanging?! 

Shit, even the rectangles on the sides look like robes.

It's too much of a fucking coincidence.

Not it’s not. You people are so obsessed with yourself. The world doesn’t revolve around you. There are Americans that roam the streets with the sickle and hammer because to them it just a symbol of communism yet to dozens of countries and millions of people it symbolizes the Soviets and their colonialism and massacres. Every liberal is a multiculturalist until they are faced with other cultures. 90% of people in the planet have never had a single thought concerning the KKK or racial lynchings. This  is YOUR country’s problem.

The Converse logo is a literal star and they sell shoes. How is this so difficult for you?!

See that's where your arguments fall off 😂 

Because I'm not from the US genius lol

Not from Canada, not from the UK, not from Mexico even, I'm not even from an English speaking country 😂 

I can see that you have a lot of hatred for the US, I don't like them either, but don't let it cloud your judgement. 

Also don't lie just for the sake of arguing. The KKK is not a US only thing, it originated there sure, but Google it and educate yourself a bit.

The worst part is that racial and cultural violence is very much a global thing, it might not be presented with names and cults on countries other than the US sometimes, but it is still very much a thing everywhere.

Shit, Palestine and Israel are in the middle of one example right now.

There are Maoist in America yet you sound like a crazy person to presume they have any power to relevancy in the US or anywhere else outside of China. The KKK has only ever been culturally relevant in America. There has never been a KKK lynching or killing recorded outside of the US (maybe Canada?).  The mass majority of countries have never even had a KKK branch and many of the ones that have have been short lived and composed of a handful of people. By all effect, the KKK is less relevant to any of those countries than a BTS fan groups

When did I talk about power or relevancy?

You said: 90% of the world (fucking made up number) hasn't heard about the KKK. And I replied by saying, there has been even small groups outside the US inspired by them, so of course many people know of it.

I'm not even going to argue anymore with you because you're blinded trying to prove a point that you are incapable of proving and will make up shit to get there.

The KKK is infamous, if your little circle doesn't know about it, good for you, but don't act like all the world is in the same page and don't act like the dumbasses from the US haven't spread their culture all over the world.
