This really makes me sad.
Harley, despite what it's become, is an American icon - an icon of White America.
As a motorcyclist, I really appreciate the contributions (mostly stylistically) Harley has brought us. Though so many of their bikes look quite alike, there have been some real gems over the years. (I'm particularly partial to the Rocker C and the Breakout styles.)
Watching Harley fall apart under foreign and "modern" leadership hurts a lot. And it seems to speak to the state of America and the world in general. (Why is a German heading an American company - especially a company which represents such a root part of Americana?)
Harley in its present form is like a terminally sick animal. It doesn't need to be left to die. Harley needs to be put down. We need to actively kill Harley and stomp its ashes in to the ground for two reasons: 1) To stop what's going on in Harley, and 2) To send a message to everyone in the world that White Americans will not tolerate the woke bullshit.
It's always sad to have to put down a special animal. But when the need arises, I will pull the trigger.
