Jason Dill and Anthony Van Engelen's FA World Entertainment is facing intense backlash for promoting drug use with a recent product release.
The controversial item in question is a plate featuring a design of a man doing cocaine with his daughter watching, which has sparked outrage among consumers and advocates for drug abuse prevention.
Many critics argue that the company's decision to use a design that glorifies drug use is irresponsible and sends a dangerous message to young people who look up to skateboarders as role models.
Skateboarding has long been associated with counterculture and rebellion, but promoting drug use goes against the positive values that the skateboarding community upholds.
Several individuals have taken to social media to express their outrage and call for a boycott of FA World Entertainment. One Instagram user commented, "That's really f*cked up but there's something about drugs child neglect and optical illusions that made this funny to me."
Another user added, "Yall f*cking suck. went from one of the coolest companies to one of the corniest. just some more edgelords being cringe."
