They're not, but the old company logo was associated with a scandal/disaster so they changed it to distance themselves.

Idk if I really buy it considering how similar the new logo is, nobody is gonna think it's two different companies. But I haven't fully immersed myself in the conspiracy yet, so I might be missing some context

Yeah, like I said, idk if I buy it. The explanation doesn't really make sense.

But some really strange PR decisions have been made in the past.

Um deleting all evidence from the world except two supposed photos (which btw have different cornucopia designs) and a tiktok video... sounds like far more than anything a PR team could manage. All the three-letter agencies combined couldn't pull that off, as the action itself would leave evidence.

Starting your reply with "um" makes it sound like you're condescending and disagreeing with what I wrote, but nothing you said disagrees with what I said... So I think you just misread my comment.

But why do they deny the old logo existed?

They don't, because it's made up.
