There can be no greater proof that we are now living in an era of identity politics than the recent LIDL supermarket saga that erupted after the vast, German-owned supermarket chain airbrushed some Christian crosses from a picture on its packaging of baklava sweet pastries, which it sells under the name "Eridanous."
The picture in question showed Santorini's famous domed churches, with two of the buildings surmounted by small Christian crosses. But on the packaging these had been removed, presumably so they wouldn't offend gays, Muslims, or women who like to abort babies.
Some years or even months ago, something like this would have gone unnoticed, as mainstream Christian White European people were not conscious of their identity, and were even unaware that their culture was constantly under attack by slimy Leftists.
In fact, a few years ago, Lidl would probably have added crescents where the crosses had been.

But now, thanks to the Alt-Right and other identitarian movements, insults like this against White European Christendom no longer go unnoticed. Europeans are awakening, as the social media campaign against Lidl showed, soon bringing the supermarket chain to heel with this abject apology.
"We are sorry for any offence caused by the artwork on our Eridanous range," the German discount store said in a statement. "We can confirm that we will be revising the design as soon as possible. We made a mistake in the most recent revision of the product design and are now treating the issue with the highest priority."
But some campaigners are not satisfied with that. One customer decided to go shopping in LIDL carrying a massive crucifix, while one commenter on Lidl UK's Facebook page said:
"We should all take pens into our local stores and draw crosses on the products!"
See, crusades do work!
