Facts. I am from Sweden and I also live here and we have the same issue here. Always uneducated and pivileged people telling black people how they should react to racism and what racism is and not.
You do realize Silver coaches a league that is majority black males. You think it’s wise of him to punish them in response to them being tired of seeing folks who look like them being murdered, while said players are already away from their families to play during a pandemic? LOL
It’s a players league unlike the NFL, which is an owners league. Honestly I’m so sick of this **** and just want normal sports. If the Rockets pull this card today I’m probably done for good and will pray the NBA goes bankrupt. Adam Silver looks like he has AIDS and Cancer.
As a Jewish person, you shouldn’t reference your friend as a sole source of how people feel. I’m not a person of color but, If you’re not in another person’s shoes, you have no idea what they deal with on a daily basis.
Bucks have boycotted, but let's be real, they had little to lose up 3-1 and ready to advance. Rockets and OKC have much more to lose if they boycott today. Bucks can forfeit and still be up in the series. Houston or OKC boycotts and it gets really dicey.
Why would they NOW? You ever heard of the Nuremberg trials? Not to mention they have had their own country since the end of WW2. Can we get justice like that?
it’s like the nba didnt learn from the nfl with Kaep. Nfl ratings and attendance were horrible during that whole episode. It took 4 years for the Super Bowl to show an uptick in ratings. For a while it looked like the nfl was becoming an afterthought to many Americans The nba is nowhere near the nfl is terms of revenue so I think this hurts them more
So just because you're friend is a jew and does not complain it gives you the right to judge others based on how they react to discrimination and racism. And quite disturbing of you to make that comparison to start with, first and foremost the second world war occured about 80 years ago. Your friend was not the one having to suffer due to despicable acts of the nazis. Educate yourself, don't be a puppet. Such a pathetic thing of you to do, to play the race card and then refer to your jewish friend.
Racism is a tough enemy to fight, I really don't know how you fight it. Deciding to fight it with emotions, however, might not always obtain the best results. There has to be some clear set of values that are maintained which can legitimize the position of standing. Right now, neither side is doing this. Unfortunately, these dumb-ass cops are going to keep doing what they do. And people will not stop boycotting. I knew some people who studied criminal justice, I'd hate to be them right now. Or maybe they're making the money? ****ing media...
