So I'm going to test that by creating a petition thread for Rifkin to change the name of his tournament to something that isn't offensive to minorities and is inclusive of all (unlike the president elect of my country).
If you think Rifkin should change the name of his tournament write a comment or the word, "agree" in this thread.
Pro players definitely encouraged to use your voice.
Either make a comment here or make your speak your voice by not adding a viewership number to the tournament.
Here is my post...

This isn't about minorities, just about money = viewers = greater numbers.
For the record I'm in no way saying, "fuck Basetrade" or anything like that... but I definitely lost respect for the brand.
And I'm one person that won't be watching any of these tournaments.
I've been a big fan and player, since the wings beta. As much as I like starcraft, I won't choose it over speaking out against a tournament name created from the words of a man who espouses hate against minorities and empowers racist people/groups.
If this sounds like a tumbler rant to some people, try turning on a news station other than fox and objectively looking at the things that are happening in my country.
I'm didn't make anything up in my previous post, those things actually happened, you can google them.
You are using the words of a man who is an advocate of torture and nuclear arms proliferation.
If you other people feel this is wrong like I do, please don't watch, speak with your viewership numbers.
