No one said anything about Whites being persecuted, other than you.

They don’t have to say it word for word, claiming that blacks make up a smaller percentage but are represented at a higher percentage in ads, etc tells us otherwise.

What part of interested in sports don't you understand?
I stand by my comments. If the athletes and talking heads were saying things that you agree with, you’d have no issues.

You’ve become too political. It’s radicalizing you and millions of others. Sports have always had a political facet. Muhammad Ali wasn’t political?

Come on...stop it. SMH

All I can say is, is Mrs Nichols didn't get the job either by her own merits. Her husband just happens to be the step son of Diane Sawyer, long time A-rated journalist for both CBS and ABC. So, you do the math.

Yeah, except for the hard work part. NOPE! Not even.

You inserted that yourself.

gg just stated he gets a kick out of the well more than represented virtue signaling. IE 14% of the population now makes up 80% of the marketing campaigns.

That's even more than 14% of the population accounting for over 50% of the violent crimes in this country.
It doesn’t have to be said. I know how to read white people’s comments and figure out what’s NOT being said. That stuff is usually a lot more important than what IS being said.

Kinda like your 50% crime comment. No biggie because it’s what you’re NOT saying that I can easily pick up. There’s a lot of resentment behind the black representation, and you bringing up crime is your way to express it.

Of course, I care about white resentment about as much as you care about black resentment....which is to say not at all. It has no consequences for me.

Yeah...that’s my point.

I actually don't care one way or the other. I probably have seen more of Rachel on The Jump - but not doubting Maria's work ethic.

My whole interest on this is watching the woke culture eat its own. Watching the white people not totally be up front about how they feel about the tyranny of social justice.

I'm in the Houston TV market. I have seen most of Yao's games. He's a better more skilled version of Mark Eaton for the Jazz. HOF potential and talent, great guy - but not much playoff success and not a HOF career... unless China says so.
I’m fine with Yao being in. Again, impact beyond the stats.

Sure he did. He just didn’t explicitly say it.

They don't have to say what you want them to say, because you will just say what you want them to say for them.

What you are missing is that we think this is FUNNY!

We are laughing our a$$es off over people and companies tripping over themselves to try to convince people they aren't racist.

It's hilarious.

You are putting your own biases on me. That's on you, not me.

I stand by my easy to understand statement. When I tune in to watch sports, I expect to watch sports. When I tune in to a political show I expect to see politics.

The two should not cross over. They are two totally different interests. There is no reason for them to cross over.

Here you go folks. Here is a classic example of blacks being racist against Whites.

It's also a classic example of the permanent victim status some are seeking.

You call it racism, I call it realism. I know all the trickery.

You brought up the crime stat because of racial resentment at black overrepresentation in commercials. You didn’t want me to figure that out, but I did anyway. I know white resentment and aggrieved entitlement when I see it. And I’m fine with it because it’s of no consequence to me.

50% of violent crime? Okay. Bet. But African Americans are gonna keep being overrepresented in commercials. In fact, it might get WORSE!!

That’s just more resentment for you to chew on. I don’t know what to tell you.

Victim? Nah...I make a very poor victim. My post is triumphalist if it’s anything. No one can victimize me.

You’re only using the victim trope in order to position yourself above me as the possible (but not probable) victimizer.

But nah...that’s not even within the realm of possibility. Perish the thought.
