Nope, this one won’t gain any steam.

Agreed. Man, some of these people have serious issues. This girl is 16 and is already an avowed Communist, complete with hammer and sickle emoji. I'm so thankful social media wasn't around when I was in HS.

One thing that I think makes this country so crazy. We can go out and be free to say all this crazy **** and not be persecuted. Which makes us so great. But brings out the craziness.

What about roulette? I was never comfortable betting on black, but man with the Washington football team I don’t know about red either.

So dumb. So they want to become grammatically incorrect (he to they) to become more woke.

That sure is some list. I'm all for respecting a person's pronouns but why are we getting rid of he/she if someone is a he/she?

Always bet on black!

I'm assuming that's referring to when you are referencing someone you do not know or does not have it specified in their profile.

One thing probably being overlooked isn’t the redskins discussion happening here: they’re not looking into their name for any altruistic reasons. They see tides turning and they’re running a cost-risk analysis. The American populace doesn’t give two sh*ts about cheap goods from China off the backs of slaves. They should, but they don’t. The general public is discussing mascots, monuments, racism, etc at the moment. The redskins are trying to figure out what gives them the most money. Change it or don’t change it.

WINNING would bring the most money.

28 years after their last SB title I couldn’t give 2 shits what the hell they do with their name.

Happy Independence Day everyone. Not political, just happy post. File this under "Current Events" or something.

Some red meat trolling

May or may not matter, but his full tweet:

Theres not really a difference between the two.

What's funny about the new age of Kaepernick Black Activism is that it's far more Malcolm X and far less Dr. King.

Postby **MWB** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 9:18 pm

I mean, the first gives no context, while the second gives an explanation. I do agree it’s more Malcolm X though.

Postby **Kaiser** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 9:20 pm

The difference is what you shared.

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 9:26 pm

This is real.

Postby **Morkle** » Sat Jul 04, 2020 9:31 pm

If it’s real, wonder how much money the GOP/Russia is paying to split the vote if he runs as an independent.

Who would vote for him who would have voted for Biden?

The context was laid out in the article.

I was talking about the tweets.

Yeah, don’t think this hurts anyone, unless it happens to pull the black vote, which I guess is possible.
