This is from a dude off realgm

This reads 100% like a Chinese propaganda piece.

I highly doubt the "quiet majority" of HK are against the protestors seeing as the majority of that country is vehemently against rejoining China.

Shout out to Adam Silver for standing up to China in the face of losing billions of $.

Damn I’m surprised Adam Silver defended Morey :whoo:
He had too. Whites were about to get the Tiki torches out of the garage and iron the beige Dockers if Silver and the "black league" road with China and Morey was fired. The shyt-storm here in the States would've been way worse than what's going on in China. They'll just take the loss for now but they know the Chinese are NBA junkies and their product is cooked crack over there.. they'll just ride this one out and hopefully get the dough on a back end in a year or two.

not sure how true this is:gucci:

I'd be really really happy if that happened actually.

NBA already released a weak-ass statement, I doubt they will go any further. If China STILL wants to hold that over their heads....how are their own people going to feel about that? Can you imagine taking NBA basketball away from an entire populace? Great for the anti-government protesters.


Edit: I see Silver manned up. It's on. China tried to push too far and this is their L now.

Bowing down to China just sets a bad precedent. That’s the main part. Half of y’all run with what Tariq Nasheed says as facts and good bit of yall thought nipsey murder was a conspiracy so dmt talk about uninformed...


But HongKong got to hold that China L sadly. They might as well stop the protest and let the heat die down, they don’t have a win with China. If China drop that hammer down can’t nobody save them.

It could the truth or it might be propaganda. I'm trying to hear all sides of the equation cause I'm not sure Hong Kong is our friends no more than China is. Matter of fact Hong Kong is China. They're not British anymore

that reads like some shyt you would see people post on similar sites when some protest is going on in their city. "it's not all of us protesting police violence and it's the protesters that are actually the problem."
what a garbage post, it reeks of :mjpls:

1. Rich White businessman goes to Asian city with a lot of money to fill his pockets. All his friends are wealthy and he may or many not be in cahoots with the authoritarian government to keep the wheels of his business well-greased.

2. Giant protest movement of common folk rises up. Rich people are all :whoa: because they don't want to fukk up their bag.

3. Rich White businessman, who only hears opinions from his rich government-tied friends and government-run media, spouts a bullshyt narrative that throws all the protesters under the bus and denies that the LARGE majority of the country has their backs. Throws that uninformed, bullshyt narrative back to the West as if he's the authority.

silver said a lot of nothing. he kind of defended morey but also bent the knee to china. after reading china's response to silver's comment i think the nba should just back off working with china for now. china's government is obviously totalitarian and have strong nationalism so nothing you can do at this point. the chinese people will just follow the government and do what they say.

sounds like a chinese bot. the fact he called them terrorist says it all. that's a common dog-whistle with chinese nationalist and this protest.

China is a regressive Communist shythole country. But let’s be all the way real here. China is the second largest economy on Earth. The USA or any other country is not going to torpedo that relationship for a single province or city. This would be like if Puerto Rico was rebelling against the US for whatever reason.

You nikkas have the nuance of a bowl of low sodium chicken broth

What part of Authoritarian government that will not stop it's quest for world dominance don't you simple simon ass nikkas understand?

Is there some magical scenario where China recolonizes Africa and imposes its will on the US, but somehow lets a select group of super woke HYON ADOS Coli posters get 0% interest loans to start businesses in Black communities and relaunch Black Wall St?
You sound like a white supremacist that don't know shyt

Silver tried to pull a pr bullshyt on the CCP by not picking a side. The CCP just pulled a power move on the NBA by pulling all the games from airing. These capitalist owners just got exposed they all about the money. Whatever campaign they have going on in Amerikkka about black issues is all just smoke and mirrors. The owners play both sides to keep peace and the money flowing.

As for China's politics you should look at this shyt objectively. If Alaska decided they wanted to be on their own all hell would break lose in Amerikkka. The fact of the matter is Hong Kong is part of China, their people are historically Chinese and from the mainland. There's no reason for the league to go in and mendle with their politics.
