Its a simple lack of self awareness.
You've got a giant circle jerk going on at HQ. Everyone there is playing by the rules that the leaders put out there, so there are no checks and balances like you would find in the real world. If someone comes up with some offensive idea nobody is willing to stick their neck out there and say "Wait a minute, we are going to look like fucktards if this is put out in the public eye."
And if the GB ultimately approves this in the end like their literature bragged about in the past, well we know what kind of educated people sit at the top. Tight pants Tony and Crazy Stevie Lett. Need I say more?
Its actually a good thing in the end, their idiocy will continue to wake up those inside.
