And either way, I am only speaking for myself. Sports is a form of escapism to me. Mix in politics, even politics that I agree with, and it's ruined for me.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThe USMNT wore similar warm up jackets and took a knee before their games last week. Literally every NFL, NBA, and MLB player has taken a political stance. Do you avoid watching all those sports?

It is telling when standing (or kneeling) against racism is taken as "political". One would think that would be a non partisan issue

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostStanding against racism is fine. Taking a stance that virtually all white people, cops of any color, anyone who did anything to build this country in any way, etc are virulent white supremacist's whose goal is to re-enslave or kill all non-whites, women and non-hetero's is the problem.

Always love the Trump crowd’s logic here. Kneeling against systemic racism and fighting for equality is offensive. Grabbing women by the you know what, lying, raping twenty something girls / women, etc all good, white supremecists are very fine people, 17 year olds white dudes murdering people is no prob. Totally makes sense.
