[EL PRESIDENTE]

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/dec/22/lebron-james-nfl-team-owners-have-slave-mentality

LeBron James, who has consistently used his platform as one of the most famous men in America to discuss social issues, has said that NFL owners have a “slave mentality”. The Los Angeles Lakers star made the comments on Friday’s broadcast of his HBO discussion show, The Shop. “In the NFL they got a bunch of old white men owning teams and they got that slave mentality,” James said. “And it’s like, ‘This is my team. You do what the fuck I tell y’all to do. Or we get rid of y’all.’”

He was just quoting the lyrics from a rap song. No big deal.

So if I post the n word in here, as long as it's a lyric it's cool then?

That is specifically what he posted. No big deal.

No.

If he posted that then there would be trouble.

He posted

That is nothing like what you posted. He is just saying he is getting his pound of flesh. Everything is cool.

Those are actual lyrics? What radio station plays them and do the rest of the listening audience think they are cool expressions?

Good God, the country has gone down hill rapidly under Trump.

Some rap is good, some is bad. I thought everyone knew that.

e.g. Good rap (Idris Elba) -

This has to be a joke. It has to be.

You're going to pretend that a guy who is concerned about racism and prejudice in this society doesn't know that those lyrics are offensive? Really?

I don't really give a shit what Lebron thinks or posts. The issue is that everyone else has to be perfect all the time. What did Megyn Kelly do? Say she doesn't see why black face or black makeup is bad if it is a positive portrayal of a hero?


FIRE HER NOW!!!!!!

Rap is immune to the SJW criticism for some reason.

I don't think it's country, there's no truck mentioned.

Really it's not just rap, it's music in general. I find it very strange that there is so much racism, sexism, hatred, etc spewed in our music and it's almost never called out. It's like music is the one place where all of that is ok, it's creative artistic expression! As long as I'm singing about how much I hate people it's ok... Again it's way beyond just rap music it's in just about every genre.

Also I kind of fear for Lebron. I have a lot of respect for him and what he's done and tried to do in his communities. I hope LA, the attention, the I have to have a statement about everything mentality doesn't hurt him in the long run. There's wisdom in just not opening your mouth at times.

How so?

 

[Mediocre Man]

How so?

How so? Seriously?

 

[MARIS61]

Le Bigot.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Le Bigot.

Come on... I mean his comments about the NFL stuff I wasnt sure I was very comfortable with, but he didnt really say anything bigoted. He already apologized about the Jewish money comment.

If you’re gonna call him a bigot for that, than you paint yourself into a corner when defending the president on all his outbursts. He is a bigot too, and more of one than LBJ, at least LBJ apologizes.
