Brueggs Posted July 31, 2020 Posted July 31, 2020 58 minutes ago, K-9 said: Kaepernick and any teammate who wanted to, had the expressed permission from the 49ers to take a knee. Quote from NFL.com. "Kaepernick said that he is aware of what he is doing and that he knows it will not sit well with a lot of people, including the 49ers. He said that he did not inform the club or anyone affiliated with the team of his intentions to protest the national anthem".

Another quote from NFL.com: Quote The 49ers issued a statement about Kaepernick's decision: "The national anthem is and always will be a special part of the pre-game ceremony. It is an opportunity to honor our country and reflect on the great liberties we are afforded as its citizens. In respecting such American principles as freedom of religion and freedom of expression, we recognize the right of an individual to choose and participate, or not, in our celebration of the national anthem."

Based on your limited worldview it's no surprise that you also have a twisted view of "marxism". Do you realize just how boring you are? Before you convince 1 person to agree with your lame, banal point of view, you will put 100,000 folks to sleep. 1

The fact CK didn’t seek permission beforehand does nothing to diminish the fact that his employers granted that permission moving forward. This might be about political correctness to some people, but to those corporations and other enterprises overtly showing support for the movement, it’s about their market analyses and what that data reveals about external and internal customers.

Logic Posted July 31, 2020 Posted July 31, 2020 Just wanted to point out how hypocritical and absurd it is that the people terrified of the “Marxist” BLM aren’t even slightly concerned about the rise of actual, clear-as-day fascism in our country. Hey you! Ignore the unmarked federal police troops snatching protestors off the streets and tear-gassing Americans nightly and the president talking about delaying the election and refusing to accept the results of said election, and instead look over here at the scary, Marxist brown people! Racist fear-mongering and Red-scaring to frighten the populace into voting for “law and order” and to distract them from the dangerous actions of those in power that are ACTUALLY endangering our country. The playbook hasn’t changed in 70 years. Points for consistency, I guess? It would be funny if it wasn’t so transparent and vile. 1 1

Fair enough, but it does say something about him that he put his employer in that situation. I agree 100%. The NFL is a business and the all mighty dollar is king. I might be wrong, but I think they may have miscalculated on this one. The variable are too hard to predict.

Because anyone that knows the definition of fascism is saying that's literally what is happening under this regime. We are living under authoritarian rule in a police state.

So what do you call it when police march down neighborhood streets shooting people on their porch, abduct citizens without warrants or cause, deny people of their right to protest, physically assault and arrest the press and shoot first responders? What exactly do you think a fascist police state is? I mean really, what do you think is missing?

You can tell because under fascist regimes people are often allowed to openly describe the government as fascist with literally no consequence. Either way, what really matters is the threat of delaying the election. Whereas most of the accusations of fascism are petulant or based on flat misrepresentations, the threat of moving the election date is truly problematic.
