Been in the weeds the past couple weeks, look today and it’s almost low the whistle blower stuff in taking a backseat.

Any update would be great.

TIA

China shows the power that a strong government wields representing a people. NBA shitlibs parrot their anti-American talking points at the behest of Chinese propaganda efforts.

They may be a shitty communist state but there is strength in collective action.

Trump could learn and actually use red state normal folks to shut this country down and get shite fixed. Military to the border, deport everyone, and if shitlibs raise hell call all truckers to block the roads in and out of the coastal cities.

I would give you an update, but I'm still waiting on Steve Kerr's brother to tell me if we should be kowtowing to a Communist dictatorship.

NBA is now a Chinese league using the communist government of China’s tactics to censor its fans. No self respecting American can support this league until Nosferatu is fired as commissioner. I’m a big NBA fan, I grew up with basketball, but I won’t spend another cent on anything with that license until the Chinese deal is dissolved and Silver is fired.

Instead of the NBA and Nike partnering to build factories and bring jobs to inner city communities which would elevate people out of poverty and drastically improve the lives of young black youth who the sport literally relies on for its existence, they chose to partner with China for cheap labor and now they're actively suppressing people for mentioning Hong Kong or saying anything negative about China.

Why an American Professional Sports organization is choosing China over its own people is beyond me.

~Rockets GM tweets Free Hong Kong (From China)

~NBA has significant financial interests in their brand in China

~Communist China starts flexing its muscle on the NBA

~NBA straddled the fence in its initial response and tip toed around furthur pissing off China.

~Some of the NBA's biggest woke scolds when it comes to clapping at Trump have punted when it came to taking a position of vocal leadership on real human rights issues.

and now some teams are already starting to look at a potential 10% - 15% reduction in salary cap next season if money stops flowing to the NBA from China

side note (but somewhat related)...

A week or so, South Park runs episode "exposing" Chinese prison situation, as it related to political speech (more or less). And a few other funny jabs.

A few days ago, China (undoubtedly with the help of Google programmers) obliterates all electronic references to South Park within the Chinese interwebs.

A day or two ago, South Park creators issue a hilarious and BRUTAL mock apology that even takes a shot at the pussies over in the NBA and their sincere apology.

Why was Killary's computer sending all emails to china?

Why have spies be found working for US congress, unknown to the congress person... wink wink.

Why does one congress woman identify as Chinese and believes she was Chinese in a former life?

Why did we outsource military parts to china?

Why did we sale US ports to china?

Why have so many rich Chinese bought up so much property in the USA and Canada?

Why did congress and the presidents pre-Trump sale out our jobs to china?

Why are the dims pushing Russia as our enemy but cuddle with China?

Why was Killary setting the USA up for a war with China?

Why did Killary say that Russian meddling in our elections was an act of war?

Why is google doing China's biding?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do you think all of the above truths/facts are just coincidences without an underlying goal?

The NBA is a POS (this isn't a new revelation)
China owns a majority of the NBA
Houston GM spoke out FOR the HK protestors
China went batshit
NBA Commish railed against the Houston GM
NBA Commish then gave China head
NBA Commish tried to backtrack but it was too late
The NBA is a POS
