The cancel culture has recently been focused on Dr. Seuss books and Pepe Le Pew, but a hot take served up by the Washington Post has spotted something else that needs to change:

The Washington Post ~ Opinion: The Jeep Cherokee is not a tribute to Indians. Change the name.

Another day brings with it something else that needs canceling (and it took three people to write that one).

Yude ~ Oh for Gods sake - stop it already!

I Hate The Media ~ The Washington Post is insulting to Washington. Change the name.

Male Human Person ~ Jeep Football Team

Threedy ~ Feels like we're getting one of these every day now.

Paul Orozco ~ Opinion: calling Cherokees, "Indians" is not a tribute to Native Americans. Stop calling them that.

EmCityRose ~ If the Jeep Cherokee is offensive to the Cherokee Nation, don't you think the term "Indians" might be as well?
