Mark Cuban:"I know how I'm going to vote, but I'm not ready to comment on it."

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

Im not even mad at mark im not shocked he thinks this way either. What bothers me is folks who are cosigning Cuban saying his comments are different than what Donald Sterling said

If you THINK its similar then It is TO YOU.

Mark cuban is Jewish
Mark cuban said he stereotypes

What do you think he was referring to when he said white man shaved head and tattoos?

who am i kidding? you know these guys are gonna keep on playing for these racist owners and use "not playing for the owner and playing for the fans/city" excuse.

THE CITY IS ON STOLEN LAND

 

[IGSaint12]

Exactly. Yall gonna pretend like you never got on a plan, saw a Muslim, and automatically had a negative thought? Everyone has prejudices that pop up, the question is how you address them.

How old is cuban though? If he hasn't addressed his prejudices by now when he is a billionaire, why should I believe he ever will?

Cuban spittin that truth that a lot of people can't handle

what truth? i already posted dudes in hoodie that don't even have thuggish mannerism.

cuban said "black kid" in hoodie aka most any blacks 14-30. Put a hoodie over the shirt and tie and you're a thug that needs to be investigated and people should walk across the street, hahaha.

How is what Mark said different than what Donald said?

she moved away from crime....she didn't move away from a kid in a hoddie focused on studies and uplifting black people.

cuban was focused on one article of cothing as it came to blacks.

What? I must be missing something.

Thing is you can't legislate how people SHOULD feel. I have an aunt that moved out to lily white Shelby County, because she's scared of all the "thuggish" and "gangster" Black kids in Birmingham. Is that not HER prerogative.

I disagree. You can and it is being done. If it gets out in public and was said you can legislate it. You can get fired, fined, blackballed for it.

moving away from crime ain't prejudice. moving away because kids wear hoodies is prejudice.

What makes you think "addressing your prejudices"means you'll never have a prejudiced thought again?

 

[Matt504]

no...because I dont look like a Chief Keef clone.

Yall just go straight to "omg he's racist he thinks every last black person in a hoodie is dangerous".
Come on now...he was just trying to make a point.

Threads like this make me wonder if yall actually have ever lived in the hood.
In Chicago, kids/teens (whatever you want to call them) would all wear the same thing (plain hoody or T shirt if its summer) so that you couldnt give a detailed description of them.
This was common knowledge!

You cats really think the Ralph Lauren photos are the type of cats Cuban was talking about?

I love it when nikkas like you get your nikka wake up call, the fact that you think Mark would make a distinction between you and another Black male in a hoody is absolutely hilarious.

How is what Mark said different than what Donald said?

-- "It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people. Do you have to?"

-- "You can sleep with [black people]. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want. The little I ask you is not to promote it on that ... and not to bring them to my games."

-- "I’m just saying, in your lousy f******* Instagrams, you don’t have to have yourself with, walking with black people."

-- "...Don't put him [Magic] on an Instagram for the world to have to see so they have to call me. And don't bring him to my games."

I didn't hear Mark Cuban say any of this.

 

[MVike28]

Damn, 9th

He even took the, "Well, he said something about the white kid. Why didn't you say anything about that?" route.

Where Phontigallo at? I know he ain't cool with this shyt.

I swear these nikkas have been washed. The absence of critical thinking in general is concerning as fukk.

 

[the cac mamba]

you know what my honest opinion on the shyt is? dude didnt wana get clowned by his friends bein like "yea those black dudes your girl rolls with are definitely hittin that" i.e. dont bring them to games, or whatever he said

but what exactly is the legal recourse for not liking black people? we aren't talkin hiring practices or any of that shyt. he just expressed his prejudiced opinion in a private convo

*see username*

like i said, how can you justify an arbitrary fine like 2.5 million dollars? for what?

my only point is that this should be more of a court of public opinion thing, more than legality. and btw im not defending that jew either, i dont give a fukk if he loses his team or not
