He's being blackballed but who cares. That's my stance.
Activists don't know why everyone in the world isn't also an activist. In that sense, and in a lot of other senses, they're like kids coming home from Bible camp. They just can't fathom why EVERYBODY isn't high on Jesus.
The progressive, postmodern values that equate victimhood with virtue have elevated Kaepernick to sainthood. NFL owners, to their credit, are playing this exactly right. There is zero reason to placate those people, since they're a bunch of brokeasses that don't like football anyway. They hate the NCAA, hate the NFL, hate sports in general and football especially for its violence and machismo. They hate masculinity as a concept, wealth because they lack it, and if they're not white (many are not) they hate white people. They put up a smokescreen about hating "whiteness" and not white people but if you hate someone who is unapologetically white for their "whiteness" you're just a racist.
Long article in the NY Times today about the Asian people suing Harvard for their racial quota system. Asian students, particularly Asian males, are held to a much higher standard academically than other groups. Progressives are tying themselves into knots defending race based admissions that exclude members of a race because they're too successful.Its quite a ****show.
