Yes, the country is full of cry babies, especially the ones crying over an election they lost! I'm so sick and tired of complaints just cause your side lost a freaking election. Get over yourself. People are just so entitled in this country! And then you got the whiners about the so-called cancel culture. No one cares cause Twitter bans you! It's a private company. If you violate their terms of service, then you're banned. It's not rocket science. Go start your own Twitter company if you don't like it. What a bunch of whiners.
Ah yes..cancel culture isn't real huh. The problem with supporting that nonsense is that it will eventually come for you.

Not gonna waste my time explaining how twitter is a monopoly and that's different than bake the cake bigot. You know, like how there's a 1000 bakeries but twitter teams with Google to get their competition taken away...while keep the ayatolla of Iran saying death to jews...you know terms of service and all. When the chancellor of Germany and the opposition party to putin say its wrong...maybe you want to accept that yeah it is. Bc now authoritarian regimes can say, see its no big deal we are silencing you, they even do it in America.

Seeing the bigger picture is really hard as opposed to saying, everything I don't like is a nazi

You obviously haven’t spent any time in the Deep South.
I was born and raised in Kentucky. Have family in Texas, Alabama, and Tennessee. Lived in Georgia for 3 years. Vacation in Florida frequently.

The overwhelming majority of people I met were not racist and want everyone to have equality. If I met anyone that did hold those beliefs they weren’t open with them.

id argue that you’ve never taken the chance to get know people from the south. You probably hear a southern draw and think “RACIST!” That’s not how it works.

If anything, the only thing I heard against equality was people against gay marriage. And that’s because it’s their religious belief. But none of them thought the government had any right to interfere with marriage, one way or the other.

What fence am I straddling? Oh, not being a mindless polititard who puts a party ahead of country while claiming to be patriotic? I thought I made it clear that I think you people are trash and I have zero respect for you frauds.
You sure have quite the inflated opinion of yourself. A legend in your own mind. LOL. In reality, you’re most likely a pathetic little flunkie that has failed at everything you‘ve attempted and as a result like to lash out at the world. It’s your childish way of dealing with your disappointments I would imagine. You’re most likely like the little skinny Jean wearing, black hoodie and face covered Antifa cowards. Are they your heros? Do you dream about joining their ranks every night?

Because i have something called "perspective"
Your disappointment from 1 season is so great that youre blinded about the fact that every program in the country (besides Duke and UNC) would trade their coach for him. We're all disappointed but get a grip.
That’s not even what I’m asking. I saw how strongly you feel about the whole rioting, kneeling, walk over a baby to burn a flag society we have . I feel the same way as you . But your beloved basketball coach doesn’t. In fact he supports and encourages all that stuff. He’s lost a lot of respect from me because of it . It doesn’t bother you? And you say 1 year . Is it ok with you that we are 22&23 against ranked teams with 1 quality win in the ncaa tournament since 2015 ? I’m not trying to be an *** , I just don’t understand it .

I’ve lived in Texas, Ohio, West Virginia, New York, Kentucky and Georgia. Most of my adult life in Kentucky (Lexington/Versailles), and the last seven years in South Georgia. I’ve always thought equality was something which was gradually improving in this country — until I moved down here. It’s been a real eye opener, to say the least. The most obvious example is the workforce. In a state that’s pretty evenly split racially, it’s the complete opposite in any business or company you can name. Probably 95% of the upper level, management and/or salary positions are held by white people, while an overwhelming majority of lower level jobs are held by blacks. It’s closer to 100% in the two professions my wife and I are in. This is the kind of racism people want to pretend isn’t really racism, when in fact it’s racism of the worst kind. Things may be improving in some parts of the country, but that is far from the case down here.

People have “the right” to do many things, but it doesn’t make it right to do them. I, and anyone else, also have “the right” to condemn any actions we see fit.
I mean , is it wrong that I feel it would be none of my business if these guys kneeled or peacefully protested as long as they weren’t doing it while wearing uniforms representing the University of Kentucky?

They can do what they want to on their own time, misguided as it might be. But not before a game. Can you protest when you get to work? I highly doubt it.

How do you automatically attribute that to racism? just curious.

Oh ok, i get what you're saying. Last year was a final four team, they were by far the best SEC team and had just beaten a solid Florida team at Florida without Hagans. I was happy, this board was boasting.
As for the kneeling, im not a fan, but Cal's screwed either way. If he doesn't kneel, after all the players asked him to, he's labeled as a racist and it'll come out in the media that his team kneeled, but he refused. He'd lose his players trust, the parents trust, and lose all the recruits. You have to remember, the kids he recruits aren't educated.....in their eyes youre either with them, by kneeling, or against them by standing. If you remember, he said multiple times "they wanted me to kneel with them"...almost a hint he wasn't planning on it. Bottom line, the kids put him in that position, you're going to piss someone off regardless. I dont like it, but i truly think its the least of the 2 evils.

I told you they're frauds. Everything about them is fake including their words. They're a cult who care first and foremost about Trump and their party, not the country.
Flipflop at it again. The biggest liar and noser in this thread. You remind me of the ferry boat operator in The Outlaw Josey Wales. Just a little worm. Could sing the Battle Hymn of the
Republic or Dixie with equal enthusiasm. Which ever side has the upper hand, there you are. A complete and utter weasel not to be trusted.

You’re going to have to prove to me that those statistics are real. And you’re going to have to prove to me that the people are not in positions they deserve to be in.

To be upper level management of any major company a college degree is all but required. And black people drop out or fail college at a disproportionate rate to their peers (Not just white, but Asian and other demographics as well).

This country, imo, does suffer from inequality. But it’s not inequality of race. It’s inequality of economics. I’m not a socialist so I’m not in favor of higher taxes to redistribute wealth. But I am in favor of trying to build up rural communities (of every demographic, not just blacks). Imo the race stuff is being thrown in our faces to divide us while politicians, media, big tech, and the corporate elites grab more control and influence. The real issue in this country is not race, but where we come from.

While it is true that poor blacks have a harder time getting through life than richer whites. I would argue poor whites, Hispanics, Asians, etc. have a harder time getting through life than richer black families. You really think the coal miners in Eastern Kentucky are benefitting from their “white privilege?” You’re crazy if you do. Maybe go to Eastern Kentucky and see what it’s like for all the rich white folk out there.

Another thing: companies only care about one color- green. If a black guy or gal can come in and make more money than a white guy or gal that company will hire them 10/10. If they don’t? Capitalism will eat them alive.

I could go more in detail on these points but I don’t want to hijack the thread anymore than we have. Rest assured that the south isn’t the evil, backward place you believe it to be. It hasn’t been for a long time. And the last time it was really evil and backward it was run by democrats. Food for thought.

False, I said there were a few that do and they reside on the right and that was a fact. Meaning that there were no good ones on the left.
"there are only a few in both political parties that actually do and they all reside on the right."

Straight from your post.

Yeah, a little error with wording. I meant to say both parties are corrupt and there are only a few good politicians out there and they all reside on the right.

Again, you're too dumb to realize I'm not on your side and think you're trash. LOL, how is it possible to be this dumb? I'm not sitting on any fence, I can tell you how I feel about any subject and I don't have to check with Fox News or MSNBC for talking points the way you mindless tribalist do. I make judgements based on what I believe is right and wrong, you make judgements based on left and right.

It was once said that when George Washington entered the room, Benedict Arnold was the first to stand up. Of course after Washington left, Arnold would start throwing erasers and taking over the country.

You couldn’t make a judgement on whether to eat a ham or turkey sammich!

Or whether to wear your pink or blue panties.

I actually could, you're just mad because you got called out for being a fraud. It's so obvious you have to deflect with some dumb nonsense about a ham or turkey sandwich because you can't intelligently deny it.

Sure thing Thong Boy. What’s it like in your world?
It's real in my world, I don't do things for show like you frauds who oddly all claim to be patriots, I'm not a mindless easily manipulated simpleton, I don't tell others how to live their lives. I don't have fake internet friends that I want to be my boyfriend, I have real friends. It's nothing like your pathetic existence.

You keep throwing around the word fraud. LOL. You must think it’s a magic word that makes you look intelligent. I’m going to let you in on a little secret. It doesn’t. Based on your interactions on here, it seems you don’t have two living brain cells to rub together. Stupid people should remain silent. Do yourself a favor and take this advise.
