Seattle's businesses are mostly sports related for Kraken and Mariners. Do the owners of these teams know how they're connected to white nationalist merchandise? One of the others is a book store that has a lot of genealogy (hmm) and confederate crap.
Safe to assume they know but don’t see it as a problem.
I guess I'm hoping someone will do a deep dive locally into the owners. I know some of the owners wouldn't be cool with it, especially The Kraken. They're minority investors, but still.
Have you seen Macklemore's video? https://streamable.com/vaj7al
Maybe if enough people raise awareness, it will become a problem. That’s the only thing that really works.
