I do think there comes a point where you can't in good conscience support something that is destructive and in bad faith.

I think we need more people who are unwilling to overlook the small appeasements because you simply can't appease the mob.


this^^ was the reason I did it.

I was fine with the small appeasements the NFL did in 2016, but now it has continued to snowball because the mob is never satiated. I think you an I are on the same page, I'm just further ahead with where I view the problem as pervasive and needing to be addressed.

What sucks too is the Braves are actually good now so walking away isn't as easy as if they sucked.

You do realize that most everyone you watch on TV or at a movie theater is a BLM supporter, right? You realize that just about every retailer that you buy things from are BLM supporters, right? Get rid of everything in your house that wasn't American made and see what you have left. Why you choose this hill to die on I don't understand. IMO it's a "Karen" move, a cancel culture attempt. Maybe you are as far right as these extreme leftists are left, I don't know. And to be clear, I'm a conservative, a Trump supporter all the way. My dad was in Vietnam. I am loyal to this country, to our flag, to our military. I will NEVER kneel. I just don't get your mindset.

Food for thought. Do you know how many other companies that don't share your same viewpoint? But yet you still support them unknowingly.

Dude, it could be anyone. The Keurig you use. The cereal you eat. The soap you bathe with. Get real.

Anyone and everyone has the right to protest, however, absolutely nobody is entitled to anyone's money (especially if you promote a false narrative a d an economic policy that is harmful to the country). I'm tired of this entitlement mindset so many Americans have these days.

You won’t find many people arguing with this on a Baton Rouge centric board.

Guess you have no respect for the homosexual men and women who have given their lives or serve this country.
You have the right to cancel whatever you want. Starting a thread about it is signaling and using veteran status as clout for this is ignorant.

Didn’t think that gay slurs were still allowed on this site.
