“Robertson corporation is no better than prostitutes, gamblers.” I think I

can parse that piece for you at least, Jonah. Robertson’s jam is a tasty

spread popular in the UK. Their marketing symbol used to be a cheerful

little black golliwog. When I was a child, if you collected enough labels

from the jam jars, you could send them in and get a really _neat_ golliwog

lapel pin. All this has, of course, fallen afoul of the PC stormtroopers.

Persons like your correspondent would certainly regard that friendly little

golliwog as a symbol of Imperialist-Racist-Zionist oppression. (Googling

the topic, I am astounded to find that the Robertson’s golliwog seems to

have survived until 2001.)
