    Some of us have a passion for licking Trump's nuts. Some of us have a passion for finding that disgusting and sad.

    Trump is not my guy if you’re referring me to the nuts licking group. That deb4rockets chic has some kind of sick obsession with the Orange man.

    Freedom will soon find out the reason he can’t get a meeting with them because one is too busy fighting Cornpop and the other is always hiring new staffers.

    Also Kaepernick hasn't been in the league for 5 year now. Meanwhile the Chicago with two starting QB's couldn't win more than 6 games.

    Well the both the banks and the society in the 40's and 50's were racist.

    That said yes the NBA is a business and most of their decisions are business decisions. The whole embrace BLM thing wasn't a move made to be "woke" by the NBA. It was completely because the players wanted it and the owners had to placate the players.

    The NBA and NFL are private businesses, although ones that are actually allowed to be monopolies. There is no right to be in the NBA or NFL so even though they are actually discriminating they can. That is why I don't think Brian Flores' lawsuit will win. That said for those who believe that private censorship is such a threat to society they should be supporting Kaepernick and other players who have spoken out and are being blacklisted. You should also be criticizing those who have said they will no longer watch the NFL for kneeling or the NBA for their embrace of BLM since that is also punishing players and the leagues over speech.

    For that matter I know a lot of people don't like Lebron for his kowtowing to the PRC, and I agree he's a hypocrite, but if you believe in free speech then Lebron is entitled to free speech also. If it's such a threat that economic pressure over free speech,(calling for Lebron to be kicked out of the league or saying people shouldn't buy Lebron merchandise) is censorship then LEbron is being censored.

    You are starting to get it. Now apply that to today's allegations of "cancel culture".
