Reply to comment by trolleyblue in New Poster for "Rittenhouse Square" by peter095837

People are too brainwashed to be able to separate things from one another. It's quite sad.

I think it’s more that many more people know the guy than the location

That's fair

I’m not brainwashed, I’ve just never heard of Rittenhouse Square until right now

Neither have I but I have enough sense to know it probably has nothing to do with that guy.

Well if someone doesn't know what Rittenhouse Square is but do know who Kyle Rittenhouse is then of course they try to find the connection. It's not sad it's how people think.

Or they could have picked a place that doesn't share a name with a violent white supremacist...

You know, like how entire religious organizations stopped using certain symbols because evil people had co-opted them?

It's a stupid choice to name anything "rittenhouse" in 2023, unless that's what you're going for.

Basically. Archer changed the name of Isis to adapt. Really not that hard to change the title of a movie.
