Trashing Trump/America every chance they get, and bowing down to communist, racist, totalitarians.


Tells you all you need to know about liberals, doesn't it?

NBA - We hate Trump, will not go to the White House.

NBA - We love China, how dare you speak about democracy and free speech.

You can be critical of the problems of another nation and still fight problems in your own nation.

Sure you can... but if money is your god and the criticism results in losing money (even though they have tons of money already)... it can change what you claim to believe.

By buying up our private enterprise the Chinese have effectively exported Chinese censorship and pro communist propaganda to the west. Allowing China into the WTO, and the US hegemonic system, was maybe the worst decision in the last 50 years. For cheap goods we could have gotten elsewhere we allowed authoritarian communist tyrants to become a global power; economically, militarily, culturally. This is not good.

We can always choose not to accept their culture of censorship and communism. Somehow the desire for more and more money clouds what people say they believe.

These athletes are pathetic. Lets see them take a knee in Tienemen Square. Then I'll be impressed.

That would require personal sacrifice and actually put their freedom and life in danger. Easier to tweet or say something in front of the camera. So brave <sarcasm >

People have different opinions, but the NBA is a place of sports and games (not politics). If Daryl had maybe created his own separate account without any NBA affiliation and published it maybe it wouldn't have gotten as much backlash.

No it's not. The entire NBA organization from the Commissioner down to the players are all "woke". Was nice to see Tucker destroy Steve Kerr for his nonsesne last night:
