"I just bought 8 pairs of Nike shorts so I could shred them"

Yes, actually seen in the wild.

Seeing the whole board is not their particular strength.

People who have nothing could use clean clothes. If you can afford to waste money like that, do some good instead.

They don't realize that they're harming the company NOT AT ALL by destroying their products after paying for them.

They also did this with Yeti Coolers, Keurig coffee makers, and assorted other items they deemed to be politically lncorrect.

But no doubt after the right-wingers got over their mad, they went out and bought a replacement item, much to the benefit of the company they wanted to hurt.

They have successfully induced sales from people who support Colin.

And even more sales from people who hate Colin.

Bravo. Their stock price will probably hit the roof.
