Sometimes, companies release things without checking them over or having a product test from perspective customers. When they do this – they often times miss some key mistakes or problems their products have. It happens to the best of us – I’ve been known to miss a spelling error or two from time to time, but hey, I’m not offending anyone.
Unlike this company, who released a tote that it supposed to read “My favorite color is glitter,” but, due to the way the lettering is done – it looks likes a lot like a different word that is, super offensive.
Belle Chic released this bag – obviously without checking it – but Twitter users picked up on the mistake.

I mean – it does look like Hitler on first glance. And, that’s pretty f*cking offensive to an entire community of people across the world. Many people would believe the company would take the bag down after the backlash – but, the bag is still on their website and available for purchase.
F*ck that.
