No, they were trying to be edgy and capture the youth market and it backfired. This really was a stupid move on their part.

How in the world is linking your product to a racist organization an attempt to capture the youth market??

Oh believe me I have met plenty of young people who spray pain KKK and Nazi stuff on things, just because they think it is cool to upset people and will buy Nazi books just because they want to support these groups the adults are always trying to put down.

I know people who get it tattooed on their heads and chests. My brother draws all this stuff on the walls of his room.

There is a market for this stuff and they will pick up some business from young people who want to support them for pushing things and upsetting the "niggers". Sorry but that is how my brother always talks about black people and I think it is important to understand the kind of mindset we are dealing with here and why someone would think there was money in appealing to this group of people.

They most likely expected it would get excused as a typo by most people but they would pick up some new young customers. The number of racist young people is growing all the time so it is a market worth going after.

There was no risk for them since they could use the typo story, so why not give it a try?
