These things are not being attacked because they were designed to be racist or even because people are legitimately offended, there's just a power trip right now by a segment of the population intent on "fundamentally transforming America", or in other words...destroying its history.
Did you hear about UVA's "racist" sword logo? Now wavy lines are racist!
