Just so I'm clear, the oppressive work conditions of Nike employees didn't cause y'all to boycott, the ad featuring Colin Kaepernick did?

The ad, not the oppressive work conditions of their employees...

Yeah that's a decades old issue. Kinda shitty if someone is feigning outrage about it now.

You mistake people pointing out hypocrisy as supporting or opposing something.

Sure. But there's a pretty good overlap in this case.

And fwiw, I don't like this move for Nike. But overall, I don't think it's going to move the needle either way.

On an unrelated note, you still do NFL Game Pass?

I haven't signed up for it yet this year. I un-cut the cord but still going to need it.
Looked at deals a month or so ago but didn't see anything. I probably need to get on it.

I did it. It was a great service until a new company took over.

I would advise against it. New company fricked it all up.

Well frick. They can never just let a good thing going.
I use ace stream for some of the shitty ufc cards and mirror it to my tv. Might just have to do that.

I don't care about Nike using cheap labor. Never have. I'm a capitalist. But I don't mind pointing out theyre being hypocrites for acting like they care about this shite when what they do is 100x worse than how black people are treated in America today.

More like a giant company with a bunch of unethical practices is now telling me to "do better y'all"

Yeah ok
