  That was between 80-110 years ago. Is anyone that was even a part of that decision making process still alive?

  If no institution that ever participated in bigotry, racism, and/or violence is allowed to take a stand against those things now, there will be no organizations left. If the United States tries to pass laws against those things, are you going to point out that the US had slavery 160 years ago? BMW made equipment for the Nazis.

    Unilever the company that kept killing people by adding hydrogenated vegetable fat to most of its products long after the disastrous effects of trans fats on heart health were well known. Unilever the company that when it finally removed the hydrogenated vegetable oil decided to replace it with Palm Oil. Which, given the amount it uses (the world's largest consumer) has massively contributed to the destruction of the planet's remaining tropical rainforest. Then we've got enormous amount of plastic pollution ... So, is Unilever really attempting to occupy the moral high ground? Or is it just an attempt to sell more of it planet destroying sh*t to a particular demographic?
