If you want a modern example of nakedly racist authoritarianism in America, look no further than the National Football League.

The NFL announced Wednesday that “all team and league personnel on the field shall stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem” and that a “club will be fined if its personnel are on the field and do not stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.” If a player wants to not stand for the anthem, he can stay in the locker room until after the anthem is done.


Such beautiful tears this is amazing 😂

some more mimimi please? :lol:

this "racist authoritarianism" allows people to pursue their passion and earn millions playing football
worst country ever

cant say i think this is the best decision right now, but if it helps to stop politicizing sports for fake narratives like racist police executions (quote kaepernick) i am ok with it
people are tired to see this kind of stuff in football

i wonder how it never occured to kaepernick that he is not blacklisted, but teams just dont want the media attention he will bring, he is not as good as he thinks and price tag too high
he fucked up by opting out of his contract and is now searching for a scapegoat

fun fact, german people looking up his wikipedia entry will be presented with the fake news that he was released by the 49ers (for his protest), which is simply wrong

Hilarious how you guys talk about freedom of speech so much then cheer when people you disagree with get censored.

This is blatantly racist authoritarianism - and you fucking love it.

No, it's really not. It's a profit seeking institution being smart and not alienating a sizeable portion of it's viewers which would result in a lot of money lost.

true, they are using their basic right to dictate whats going in their stadiums and what is not
but i still think its not a very smart decision, the taking a knee trend would have died out at some point, now even more people are triggered into oblivion

Are you intentionally playing the part of the stupid voter who sticks with Trump because of irrelevant cultural issues?

Yawn.

Kneeling is barely offensive. They really need to ban bathroom usage during the Anthem and worshiping of our Great Big Beautiful Flag. Symbolically shitting and pissing on our flag and anthem should be a deportable offense. So should buying concessions. Buying hotdogs and beer during the required patriotic idol worship session is some degenerate bullshit that should be illegal. Anybody not in the stadium standing at attendance needs to be ground under a jackboot and carted off. It's the only way to preserve freedom and liberty.
