The fucking nazis actually come to mind, Hugo Boss knows how to cut fabric
Edit: to be clear I’m not saying wearing SS uniforms would be acceptable but I also think there’s a bit of space between that and having an antique coke machine for the look
Eh everything is political in one way or the other, but you can appreciate the craftsmanship that workers put into building or designing something like a coke machine or antique phone without validating Coca-Cola or AT&T(formerly Bell along with every other phone company) as good forces.
They influenced and defined parts of our culture for good or ill, I myself tend to think it’s the latter in the macro sense, but it’s still interesting as a piece of history that someone imagined, someone else built, and countless other people used. It’s not like confederate statues or something else akin to monuments which were purposefully put in place to try and define and frame history, they are parts of our living history and that will always be kinda cool.

i thought of the same example but thought it would steer discussion into politics somehow.
