@nileane It’s capitalism.

Selling Che Guevara T-shirts (oh, the irony) and BLM posters is primarily a business exploiting a trend.

This is also one of the reasons people feel that culturally significant things are stripped of their meaning and repurposed to sell fashion trends, with no regard for their original context or background.
