Do they have the right to change the lyrics of the song? Copyrights, you know.

The original 1908 version is in the public domain, but the revised 1927 version is still copywrited.

So they rename the product to "promote women's rights", then put the cover girls in what look like Walmart-quality "sexy sailor" Halloween costumes.
Wiley Coyote couldn't do it worse.

I think The Babylon Bee had one a while back something like: Cracker Jack renamed to more politically correct "Caucasian Jack".

When I saw the title, I did think the "Cracker" part was what got renamed.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Nah, only Progressives get triggered and they don't mind being called racist names because they think that all white people are racists.

" Cracker " isn't racist . It was aimed at white people . We're fair game for insults .

When I saw the thread title, I just assumed that was what caused the change.
So did I, and I thought "score one for whitey!".
I should've known better.
