Dumb PR move, and supports a false narrative but I really don't give a shite. It's the same as the Chic-Fil-A "Ban" jut a different group of crazies.

Chic Fil A was fine. Nike will be fine. People who "ban" brands or products because of something like this need to get a life.

When you have a guy as spokesman who praises Fidel Castro, bad stuff is going to happen.

I'm sure you'll probably want some Air Fidels for yourself..

1. Trumpkins are idiotic snowflakes that get offended by everything.

2. Investors dont seem concerned. Nikes stock closed last Thursday at 81.40. It opened this Thursday (today which is 1 week) at 80.35. A 1 dollar change over a week isnt even worth noting, in either direction.

Fidel Castro is a murderer and authoritarian in the vein of Joseph Stalin. It's not surprising some people think its' a bit inappropriate for the Nike spokesman to worship the man.

There's a principle in economics called the dollar vote. Would you say the gays are idiotic snowflakes for being upset at Chik-Fil-A?

Dont really care what gays are or are not upset about TBH.

Do know that trumpkins are both idiots and snowflakes though.

Intelligent black people see this for what it is: Nike and Kap trying to profit from a social issue, however misguided it may truly be.

Maybe they know ignorant people that bought into the same false narrative that Kaepernick has pilloried himself upon will also buy any garbage they peddle as long as it has a Swoosh mark on it.


Yes it’s a false narrative that harms the country but hey, it’s a conversation and if you don’t like it then you’re a racist redneck.

Nike's demographic does not even know who Fidel Castro is. Go ask a 14 year old, and see what answer you get. They barely know where Cuba is. It will not stop them from buying.

The difference is that, while the gays were mad ad Chic-fil-A, they never stopped eating it. The outrage only lasted until they remembered how good it was (which was about two days).

There are plenty of other options than Nike. Chic-fil-A has almost no one that can touch them
