that’s insane. Cotton has been grown and used in clothing since 5000 BC in the Indus valley civilization in India. You can’t boil everything down to a couple of centuries.

Maybe someone will correct me on this....but these cotton display items from Hobby Lobby...are they even bought from US farmers? Is it possible these are imported in from Egypt?

Why didn’t Obama do anything about this? Was he an Uncle Tom?

Just wait until they find out where polyester comes from.

Since it comes from petroleum products, we have to switch from exploiting African labor to exploiting mother earth!

I first thought that this was in reference to the Senator (I know, bad joke, lol).

Cotton is racist.

Silk is cultural appropriation.

Nylon harms the Earth.

Leather is anti-animal.

Polyester is a crime against humanity.

New fashion trend for 2018! What the inoffensive human will be sporting on the catwalk!

Start with throwing OUT all your clothing that contains cotton and all pill bottles that have cotton in them. /s

I saw a cotton decoration like that just the other day in a little home decor shop in my little town — a shop owned by a black woman.

This idiot complainer has clearly never heard of the “modern farmhouse” look that’s been popular for the last several years. But hey, now she can claim some cred with the Resistance, so it’s all good. /sarc
