Who's Boycotting the NBA??? (CHINA)


Recommended Posts

 

 

SO I JUST SAW AN AD FOR THE NBA: “TIME TO RETURN.”

 

But it was layered with obnoxious preening social-justice wokery.

 

I’m guessing it won’t call all that many fans back.

We’ve now reached the stage where white reporters are grilling black players on whether they truly care about black lives if they don’t kneel for the National Anthem. Yes, things have gotten that ludicrous.

 

Jonathan Isaac of the Orlando Magic chose to stand during the anthem last night, prompting him to be asked one of the more disgusting questions I could imagine asking a black man.

 

Part of why Isaac didn’t kneel is because he doesn’t believe it fits his religious viewpoints. That seems like a perfectly reasonable explanation, but he shouldn’t need an explanation. What kind of country makes a black man answer whether he cares about black people for not kneeling to disparage his own country? And let’s be clear, we are well past the “it’s just about police brutality” lie at this point. The admission now is that it’s about “systemic racism,” which is a vague indictment of the entire nation and the systems that undergird it.

 

 

Back to Isaac’s case though, it’s just gross that the country has reached a place where we are going to make kneeling for the anthem a requirement to care about black people, to the point where a black person is being essentially accused of being an Uncle Tom who doesn’t care about his own race. It makes no sense and it’s a complete perversion of the real concerns people may have about discrimination. It’s also exactly what many predicted would happen when others were saying the kneeling protests were no big deal several years ago. Progressivism never stop. It only “progresses” toward more left-wing, more ridiculous dogma.

 

Here’s the reality. You can care about black lives and injustice without believing that blatantly disrespecting the nation is the right way to show that care. What the media are perpetrating and doing to our culture is profoundly damaging. But they don’t care. It’s all about the narrative and their ratings. Eventually, the alligator will reach them.

53 minutes ago, KD in CA said:

Ah yes, another season of the Real Housewives of the NBA......no one care what the score of the game was, only which guy stood or knelt.  What a pathetic commentary on what people care about these days.

I couldn't care any less about the NBA if I tried. Let the teams all relocate to China and change their names to the Shanghai Kneelers and the Wuhan Bats.
