By a meaningless stenciled phrase? How weak minded are you?


If they stenciled a swastika would you keep watching? Or would you show your displeasure by not giving them any more money?

I mean, it's just a stenciled symbol.

He’s right that it is only said as a counter to BLM

Don’t see how anyone could debate otherwise at this point

Most people (including corporations and professional sports) have failed to do their research on what BLM is all about.

BLM stands for

anti-America (and its values)
anti-Law and Order
anti-traditional family structure
anti-Capitalism
anti-Conservative politics
anti-Moderate politics
anti-Borders
anti-white skin (including Woke Whitey’s)
anti-Private Property
anti-Freedom of Speech
anti-Intellectual Diversity
anti-Gun Ownership
anti-Credit Scores
anti-Personal Responsibility

Is this what we call “virtue signaling”?

Will you do me a favor? Will you tell Mountain and Nugget the PT banned me in 2017 and I can't reply? Milquetoast Board is off limits.

It's more inclusive. All lives matter.

It's factually correct if you value everyone's life.

Black Lives Matter or White Lives Matter are exclusive.

Yeah, you never heard or used that phrase once in your life until BLM existed

It’s the “NUH UH!” retaliation that only exists as a counter to a different movement.

So?

It's factually accurate. Why should someone that values all lives be fired?

I didn’t say anyone should be fired

I didn’t say it wasn’t accurate

I said it was only a counter to BLM, and it is.

Stay focused, homie!

Some people pretend it's racist to say that, so they harass your employer until they fire you.

It's not racist. It means nothing bad.

It's simply a retort to the assertion that black lives don't matter to you, which is what the phrase "Black Lives Matter" attempts to do.

Certainly not worth firing someone over. If anything, it should be common ground that we should all agree on. Everyone's life does matter.

I watch games and I pay zero attention to what’s written on the field.

Means zero to me, so their little antic to try to teach me some sort of lesson didn’t work.

Don’t care. Still watching baseball. As far as I’m concerned, BLM doesn’t concern me and it never will.


I’m the same way, I was watching the NBA yesterday and there was a minute left in the first quarter before it registered in my head that “BLACK LIVES MATTER” was written in big bold lettering across the court

Being excited about something and letting some words in dirt and a couple minutes of kneeling ruin it for you actually sounds really spineless to me.

What if those words said "frick America"?

They essentially do.
