An Ignorant Nation

Im watching the latest form of censorship applied by the NFL in regards to the players protesting the social injustices in the country. Apparently the dumb ass general public who cant see that the kneeling the players did during the anthem didn’t have a damn thing to do with disrespecting the flag or the anthem itself. It’s to show outrage over the social inequities among people of color nd the white class in this country.

Damn it people when will you bleeding heart Americans realize everything aint about the fucking flag and anthem. Though I will add if we did protest that, we wouldn’t be wrong. Under this flag we were enslaved nd called ubequal. Un this anthem we were not free until the abolishment of slavery. But the protest is nd still focuses on police brutality, racial inequality, gender inequality, income inequality nd all those issues that sre split along lines of race.

The owners all decided that they needed a uniform method of honoring the flag. I can imagine some players will stay in the locker room but how long will they do it. How will teammates look at those who chose to stay behind to make a point. If you want my answer to all this: it means the NFL is mirroring the NBA. Take away the players right to protest on their biggest platform.

Maybe one day we will stop with the ignorant assertion that every protest opposite the playing of the anthem is a protest to the anthem. One day we will wake up as a nation nd realize the cause being championed is well damn with. Wake up people.
