[JLova]

Lol Dese people really have absolutely no fukkin clue how much dey are only provin Kap right wit dis kinda dumb opposition shyt.

Basically, lets grab one another, love each other on the field, then we'll all go home and feel good about ourselves while the problems persist. Is this really his solution to addressing black oppression?

Seattle Seahawks #AllLivesMatter Protest Is an Act of Political Cowardice

To paraphrase that great sage and social critic Titus Andromedon “What kind of white #AllLivesmatter nonsense is this?” Colin Kaepernick isn’t seeking unity. Black Lives Matter isn’t seeking unity. All the men and women across the country demonstrating are not seeking unity. They are seeking justice. TVOne’s Roland Martin was quick to bring the ruckus to Baldwin on Twitter Saturday pointing out the mushiness of their “demonstration.”

Further, calls for unity always magically appear after people of color make noise about injustice and institutionalized racism. Unity is a pacifier thrown at people of color to distract from the serious suffering in our community.

White police officers and politicians started calling for unity after Sandra Bland died mysteriously. Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina had nothing to say about white supremacists for years, but after nine people are massacred at Bible study she’s calling for “unity.” Nobody was calling for unity when Cleveland cops were bragging about taking out black folks but after Tamir Rice is killed suddenly it’s supposed to be a Kumbaya unity moment.

Kaepernick’s actions have galvanized fans and led to actual tangible support for social justice issues. The NFL is at a tipping point for activism and entertainment that has never been seen in modern times. This “demonstration” by the Seahawks plays right into that oft debunked notion that social justice can only come by tiptoeing on the sidelines of white guilt and comfort instead of giving the ball to your biggest loudest messengers and punching it in from the one yard line. The Seattle Seahawks would be better off doing nothing than taking a fence-straddling appeasement strategy that serves no one but will inevitably be used to distract from the real issue of police brutality that Kaepernick is protesting.

[Adebisi_Said]

Moss face

I wanted to believe that white people were clueless
Maybe they just "dont get it"

Nah

These muthafukkas just dont give a fukk
And these coward ass players can all suck dikk

fukkin police hats and shyt

They get it; they just don't want to admit it. Admitting it would be throwing their own people under the bus. More black people need to start adopting that mentality.
