hunternay_10Leave it to the dumbass to shit on someone for grammar and then make a mistake his next post
DeadBDude you clearly don't care about native-american lives so just go ahead and say it already. You're a nazi trump voter.
DeadBFolsom skis rock bro. All these haters need to go fuck off, bunch of broke ass liberal timberline kids with their 20k tuition just to work as a ski instructor, bunch of morons. They are just paying respec to the natives, idiots will defend skiing in a durag listening to nas. Then get all pent up when a ski company uses a indigenous art style. Piss off.
DeadBFolsom quite literally stole them, copy and paste. Its an atrocity bro, I think folsom skis might be retards or siomething
hunternay_10I’m actively dating a Native American, and have been for 5 years, and voted for Biden in Arkansas. What are you talking about dude.
DeadBFunny how you can date someone of indigenous background and not support their artists. You make me sick, also you called me a libtard yet you voted for Biden? Somehow I don't believe you, stop lying. You don't date anyone ur single and probably 16 years old. Dummy.

And then call me a racist for asking a question that didn’t even have anything to do with race, but was actively trying to clarify, But claiming you’re the one being bullied, go back to your ultra-lib commune in Cali man, nobody thinks like you in the real world.

Christian_BaleDude you're such an epic troll thank u for your valuable contributions to this site
CaseyI think we should all calm down and take a minute. This isn’t a contest to prove who is better or anything like that. There is a long history that informs people’s experiences and honestly it’s pretty bitter and negative against indigenous people with few exceptions. I think it’s important to realize and understand who’s land you’re occupying- your house and mine was built on a parcel of land that was occupied for 10,000 years prior to our ancestors arrival so I don’t think it’s too much to ask to show a little respect.
DeadBdo you think I'm stupid bro, I could tell by your remarks that you are a fucking racist. and now you're tryna get followers out of this?? really dude take a step back and think about how you sound right now, seriously you're such a clown. I'm not even gunna give ur profiles a look because you are so beneath me little man. to really own up to your mistakes is something you seem incapable of instead you just fall into a trap and bury urself. lets look at this my way... you come on here and ask a question but clearly having a bias to 1 side, of course I'm gunna call you out on it. now you get all defensive. you clearly don't understand ethics very well, do I have to spell it out for u this much?? Call me kamala again and you'll see the consequences, I have people on my side that are very strong and could mess u up if you said this to me in public.

DeadBWOOOOWWW, really buddy. I'm turning 15 in april first of all, and my best subject in school is social studies so you can shut up.
DeadBYo I'm sorry we can agree to disagree, I think native artists should be able to make a livlihood and you don't its all good we can just put it in the past bro, we good?
hunternay_10and i agree with you, you’re the one who assumed I didn’t.

DeadBThen why do you keep arguing with me about it??? somehow I'm more mature then you, and I have an 96% in social studies dude, best in the whole district. You're pretty much talking to the guy who knows the most about indigenous peoples, You're a bad partner to your girlfriend and you can't even drop ur ego for a second and take a lesson. Embarrassing for u honestly.
hunternay_10Between your obvious jokes and your less obvious jokes I really can’t tell if you’re being serious or not anymore
DeadBI don't recall telling any jokes. The only joke here is you, you're the kind of guy to just follow the crowd. I can tell by the way you type ur sentences, I eat sheep like you. I'm a wolf, I have strong opinions that u just can't handle, cause ur a sissy boy.

Jemslooks like this dudes literally not lying hahahaha
hunternay_10I actually identify more with a turtle as my spirit animal
DeadBThat's so radical, as in radical right. Not even being a turtle can excuse ur blatant racism.
mrk127Still no pics of the graphic in question
icedid like to imagine its something actually horrible like having "residential skool is kool" in a script with a penis shaped totem pole just so that everyone in this thread is wrong
jps2.0meanwhile.. just a few years ago
FUUUCKAnyone have more info? What were the graphics?
IsaacNW82Lots of hearsay going on here, Nahanni's (who is in fact Native btw) IG story isn't up anymore but this is the gist of it (from memory, take the details with a grain of salt):
She was doing some type of project (school maybe?) about indigenous graphics and the ski industry and came across a ton of Folsom graphics labelled "cultural" like a dream catcher. She asked if the artist was indigenous in an IG comment and they DM'd her basically saying this should be an email and that she was cyber-bullying them. So, she deleted the comments and sent them an email asking the same question.
They replied super defensive, indicated they don't care what ethnicity makes their graphics (and implied it was wrong for Nahanni to ask), the graphics where legally Folsom's IP, there was a hang up about a ski graphic based off the Hudson Bay Blanket design. Apparently, Folsom was defending it saying an employee from upstate NY came up with the idea, and Nahanni replied saying that the Blanket was used to intentionally spread disease to Natives in Canada, and gave them a few book titles about the matter.
I personally have never heard about the Hudson bay Blanket before but here's an article about its complicated history if anyone is interested:
https://www.cbc.ca/radio/unreserved/uncovering-the-complicated-history-of-blankets-in-indigenous-communities-1.5264926/the-complicated-history-of-the-hudson-s-bay-point-blanket-1.5272430
I don't remember if Folsom responded or not but they did block her on IG and removed the graphics from their website, which prompted her posting about this publicly. She said she doesn't like cancel culture and didn't think she'd go after someone like this but after their interaction she thought it was justified.
mattytruquoting for visibility.
idk, seems uninformed and fucked up to me. this is not a case of ambiguous indigenous symbols being used on a ski; this is a situation where a symbol of violence is unintentionally being glorified. imo, it's like putting a noose on a ski and then being salty when someone calls you out on it. doesn't sound like folsom responded very gracefully either.
not sure why people are so interested in defending folsom on this one lol
Paul.Graphics in question
DeadBAre you retarded or what? you need a lesson in ethics little man. " I just wanna buy what I like" okay retard go buy some heroin then, clearly you've done so much of it that your frontal lobe is severely damaged, you get confused over basic ethics. You really think that some belegana can just swoop in and make money off of native culture and ancestry, whites have already taken so much.
CaseyCome on man. You can’t have white people replicating Indian artwork on a top sheet that is pretty disrespectful.
