People was getting them fake woke points off attacking trump, an easy target...

If Lebron can speak on shyt about the lightweight racism in America...he can damn sure speak on the real shyt going on over in China and how he's profiting off of it just like the white folks he criticizes.

He can't and won't because Nike will get in his ass and he doesn't want to lose that Nike money.

Bron and other major nba Hoops athletes denouncing the communist regime in China would be devastating to the Chinese government. He won't make that kind of sacrifice. shytting on Trump doesn't hurt his pockets. Phil Knight is a documented Trump Supporter and you don't hear him or anyone trying to throw Nike in the bushes.

Everyone has a price...

The fukk does China have to do with players speaking out on other issues that relate to them

Yall some dumb ass self hating fakkits

China's government's goal is the same as it ever was, to be the "Middle Kingdom". They will never stop in this endeavor and even if their people lose what we consider to be "human rights", it doesn't matter because in the end, it's their people over anyone else's.

This is what was told to me by the person who is old enough to have lived in pre-Communist Reformation China, before "The Great Leap" forward.

This kind of stupidity might sound especially appealing to the faux black militants (aka smart dumb nikkas and CACs pretending to be Black) that seem to have infested this site since around 2016, except there's that small little teensy aspect where the Chinese government don't value the lives or rights of non-Chinese people. And what the Chinese government says is law. So their endgame does not include YOU, it does not include some mythical Wakanda-like fantasy world where America and the white man falls but somehow, Black people survive and live in harmony with communist China

This doesn't mean that Chinese people are racist per se. For example, if you were to travel to Guilin as a Black person, you might get met with strange looks. A little Chinese girl might even rub your hand or touch your skin. This is because it's more than likely that they've never seen a person with dark skin before and some of them might legit think you're made of chocolate or something. To an uncultured person that might seem offensive but to someone who understands that the world is bigger than their block or a YouTube charlatans channel, it is an eye opening experience.

No, much of that country is NOT advanced (I don't know who the fukk said that dumb shyt earlier but it's cap), and they are actually very much behind the times in terms of knowing what is going on outside of China, let alone many of the amenities and comforts that we enjoy here in the states or the Western World in general. A lot of places in Western China are NOW getting cellphones let alone computers and shyt.

As for the younger generation, I went to grad school with a lot of Chinese students and still sometimes chit chat with them from time to time but it's mostly just strictly business type shyt. They are well aware that the Chinese government lies (ex. Tienanmen Square) but again, and I cannot stress this enough, OPEN CRITICISM OF THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT WILL LEAD TO YOUR IMPRISONMENT AND/OR ARREST. So yeah, they know this but guess what? Those students are here to study, obtain a degree, and perhaps a better life.

Furthermore, if your government dictates what you think, it's in your best interest to say and think what they say you should. Again, something the Smart Dumb nikkas of the Coli might use as a rallying point (dur dur 9/11, Sandy Hook, etc.) but you see Smart Dumb nikkas are notorious for surface level thinking, so they neglect to use the few brain cells that they have in order to consider that I'm on a computer right now in another thread criticizing the US govt as well as Donald Trump and NOTHING will happen to me.

No Military Police are coming to my job, no one will accost my family or take them away, no one will seize my shyt, nothing will happen to me, because it's my right as an American to say whatever I want about my government, even if it's not true, and even if I can't prove it.

Now consider that last point I made and consider that we have actual footage of Donald Trumps inauguration where he clearly didn't have as many people in attendance as Barrack Obamas but insists that he did, and even had his Press Secretary say that he did and followed it up with a defense that included "Alternative Facts". Here in America that shyt is a joke. We all know that it's not true and even the GOP won't openly say it but that's because they don't want to lose their jobs. Not because they fear he'll have them arrested and sent to a Reeducation Through Hard Labor Camp, or executed for "treason".

In China there are no "Alternative Facts". If the Chinese government said something happened, it happened. If they say it didn't happen, it didn't happen.

9/11 was for OIL

The Russian government meddled in the 2016 elections

Donald Trump is a moron who graduated nowhere NEAR the top of his class at U Penn

Nothing will happen to me. Nothing will happen to you for reading this. Nothing.

The Coli posters who think I'm cappin should humor us all and fly to Beijing, and wear a T-Shirt that shows a side by side comparison of Xi Jinping and Winnie the Pooh and tell us what happens.

It's not 1984...not yet...but that whole freedom of press, freedom of speech, freedom of religion (lol religion in China ) thing is for the Western World and its allies. Not for China.

All of this in a nut shell. You said the shyt better than I could....rep.

Everything you said I have seen and heard doing my time working in china. I will never forget how I was at a table with coworkers in Suzhou and the americans are talking about politics and how dumb trump is. Man them Chinese coworkers changed the subject quick as hell....cause they know they say shyt about their government and someone snitches its their ass.

Oh and you so right about them touching your skin and hair. I almost had to choke a old chinese man who rubbed my skin and hair one time at my hotel. Chinese folks are line steppers and nosy so they will touch without asking. Also have had experiences where little kids who see you across the street and run to you so they can take pictures with you...

 

[hashmander]

its not really that...
...this situation just shows how people are full of shyt.

They only "care" about issues that help them...
...its not about the betterment of people.

I may not agree w/ @ExodusNirvana on if employees of a company should speak on social issues...but at least he's consistant on his shyt.

Most of yall on here just want to bytch and moan because of your short comings in life...so you call white people Cacs and live vicariously through these athletes.

If Lebron can speak on shyt about the lightweight racism in America...he can damn sure speak on the real shyt going on over in China and how he's profiting off of it just like the white folks he criticizes.

look at this y'all, cops killing unarmed black people is lightweight racism. and if you as a black man in america speak out on things happening in your country then that means you have to speak on everything happening in other countries because you have to be "fair". why? he doesn't live or pay taxes in china. if an american wants to inform themselves about what's going in the world and speak on it that's their prerogative. if they only want to concern themselves with what's happening at home that's their prerogative as well. why not just call him selfish and only caring about americans?

 

[SadimirPutin]

The fukk does China have to do with players speaking out on other issues that relate to them

Yall some dumb ass self hating fakkits
If you're black...

I read those comments and was gonna write up a response and then thought

you know what they are gonna write some even more stupid response trying to draw a false equivalency and then I am in a circular argument with dummies who deliberately try to miss the point

Also this some geopolitics between 2 of the 3 most powerful countries in the world....folks want to use these players to do the dirty work politicians should be doing.

You wouldn't want a politician to be involved with Geopolitics who doesn't know the history of said countries. But we want some dude who plays basketball to be involved in Geopolitics? Also kats want athletes and coaches going in on china while in china?

So these same kats gonna travel to Saudi Arabia and while there talk shyt about the country and their human rights we will see how long that lasts.


This shyt between the US and china is so freaking complicated cause it is truly Geopolitics. China is a communist country we do business with. But at the same time they steal commercial technology and military technology from us. But this the same country we work through to keep North Korea in check.

While at the same time this a country who armed the north vietcong (with Russia) to fight the US and South Vietnam. Then when south Vietnam fell and Vietnam united...china then attacked vietnam..

Then during angola civil war after the vietnam war the US and China fought together against the Russians and Cubans...

While at the same time in the late 70s the US and China came to a gentleman's agreement to recognize china as the only china and not taiwan. But with the fine print saying that the US will still arm Taiwan. All the while the only reason the US developed a relationship with China was to slow down Russia.




Yeah if I was a player or coach I would sit this shyt out too. We have had like 40 plus years of politicians and presidents try to handle this and there are still issues between the two countries.

 

[Originalman]

Thats a dumb as question to ask. Hell Harden doesn't even speak on social issues.

bytch ass journalist are using this shyt as a gotcha moment.

 

[hashmander]

funny thing is james harden doesn't even really speak out on social issues. he just cares about basketball, his money and strip clubs.

 

[SadimirPutin]

still amazed at that dummy referring to "lightweight racism in America"

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

funny thing is james haden doesn't even really speak out on social issues. he just cares about basketball, his money and strip clubs.

And not in that order.

It's a legit question. They answer on everything else. Give your two cents on this.

what i want to know is how is this any different than the anti-BDS bills these politicians have been passing. marco rubio's bill that had bi-partisan support basically encouraged states to refuse to do business with companies that support BDS. so if starting a boycott against a country that is engaging in apartheid is bad, then not speaking out against china should be cool too.
