Considering all of the batshit theatrics most teams attempt to throw out there pre-game, I can’t imagine having a problem with this.

ETA: then again, if I was a white racist, I’d be triggered. Thankfully I’m not.

Looking for where I said someone was racist for not agreeing with me. Pls help.

I think in your case “nuanced” means pandering to the wishes of the five, while ignoring the wishes of the ninety-five.

Let me ask you a simple, straightforward question. Do you think that playing the “black national anthem” before NFL games does more to unite or divide us, as citizens of the United States?

No. I’m pretty sure white people telling black people what they’re “allowed” to have and not have is racist, racist.


Even for a retard like you, the mental gymnastics necessary to call others racists while actively promoting segregation by color is just dumbfounding.

What's the point of objecting to this song
It is not the song

It is labeling it "The black national anthem"

Do you think it is wise moving forward to have a national anthem based on each race? That is unifying as a nation?

Should we black "the black national anthem" when a black person wins a gold medal at the olympics?

I watched team England sing proudly shoulder to shoulder for God Save the Queen, black players included. And that is the anthem for a nation that had slaves across the globe

you have to excuse KKlark Kent he kinda just makes it up as he goes along.


again, tell me you wouldnt RA me for adding that but of extra to your name? we know the answer to that question tho, don’t we?

here’s a hint sorantable. anytime you find yourself agreeing on or on the same side of a discussion with gadknot, you might want to reassess your viewpoint. take it or leave it.

I'm on record as saying playing any national anthem before games, other than international tournaments, is kinda silly at this point.

With that being said I don't let it stop me from enjoying the sport

Has to be 3.50, assuming that number isn’t racist.

It’s a song. It means something to some, and nothing to others. Teams play dozens of songs prior to games. Think about why this one bothers you so much, and why you view it as divisive. Why are your feelings about the “Black national anthem” more valid than other folks’ feelings about the National Anthem? All of these things are worth exploring as you continue to grow as a person. But like I said, you’re behaving like a 5 year old, so I know you’re not interested in personal growth.

The pandering white liberals want it "separate but equal" just like it was in the good old days, the early 1900s!

That is impressive dodging of the question, so I will ask again


Do you think branding and promoting a second "black national anthem" is healthy and unifying for this country?

The Star Spangled Banner is the official national anthem of the United States. Playing any other song and calling it your national anthem means you consider yourself part of a different country or want to be in a different country. That is divisive.

Because it is, you disingenuous frick

You think those pushing for this would be ok with a white national anthem?

If anyone does type one out, it'll just be ignored by the usual cast of characters. All these threads are the same. It's pointless.

Any reasonable person understands why an anthem for a particular race is not a positive step in race relations.

I don't RA people for saying racist things or sharing their point of view no matter how dumb it is
