Skreddy new fuzz fail

I never had a Skreddy pedal before and now I'm sure I never will. He did change the name, but only to avoid "drama". This is probably pissing me off way more than it should, but you just can't be that ignorant.

Just when I thought that awful limited edition 'Smashed Pasty' fuzz with blood splatter graphic by Way Huge couldn't be topped for lameness.

whats the problem? he called it chernobyl first and explained the idea where it comes from pretty well on another board. Also, skreddy pedals shit over the most other traditional fuzz copys on the market. His stuff is top notch!
p.s. its based on the green russian - i think its pretty good instead of just calling it "Tall Font Russian" like the one from wren and cuff. on top of that, dont be tgp - the sound is not in the finish/color/name of a pedal

It could be worse: at least the knobs have conventional labels rather than like "meltdown" for gain...

Woops, does this mean my 9/11-fuzz won't fly?

Don`t care about the name at all, but why couldn`t he just take a picture of a real pedal, not this cheap paint-like drawing?
p.s. it got three mistakes

I actually don't see the big deal, but then again, I do. Mixed emotions. LOL
I see why it's upsetting for sure.

As someone who has no personal ties to the Chernobyl disaster or even thought about it since I played that old Call of Duty game that had that abandoned merry go round level in it, I gotta say I find this offensive.

I mean, at least it's not a swastika. AMIRITE?

It's no GISM cover I'll tell you what.

You could call it the three mile island but seriously this is so fucking stupid (even compared to the swastika).
And actually, does anyone have that new-ish GISM that wants to send me a taped copy? fuck paying $40 for a copy on Discogs.

Finding the name of a place on a pedal offensive is a stretch.
When are the threads about ZVexes SHO being indicative of rape culture and Wounded Paw's brand name tolerant of animal abuse coming?
