== Lil Nas X controversy ==
Nike, in collaboration with rap "musician" Lil Nas X, announced a release on March 29, 2021 of a limited-edition athletic shoe (limited to [[666]] pairs) dedicated to [[Satan]], containing a [[pentagram]], the number 666 and a drop of human blood in each pair.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/03/evil-nike-release-shoe-dedicated-satan-pentagon-human-blood-limited-edition-666-pairs/ EVIL: Lil Nas X and MSCHF Release Nike Shoe Dedicated to Satan with a Pentagram and Human Blood in it – In a Limited Edition of 666 Pairs] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> Online reaction to the release of the Satan-themed shoe was overwhelmingly negative, while liberal commenters on Twitter and other social media, in typical fashion, found said reaction amusing and refused to take it seriously.
