Remember this? The North Carolina Dept. of Motor Vehicles freaks out over a license plate that says “kumquats.” Apparently some ijjit complained that “kumquat” is Racist or something. Maybe it’s coded language for Climbit Change Denial.

At the very least it’s Cultural Appropriation. I think.
Sigh…
Just the sound of pronouncing kumquat should be considered anti-PC and banned from the dictionary (and maybe arrest and send to prison without due process the person who paid for it).
