    Seems to be a lot of collective amnesia on the internet in regards to "LeBron should actually do something concrete to affect change not just talk" like he didn't co-found a well funded voting rights organization backed by the most popular athletes and entertainers in the world like a month and a half ago

    Yeah but voting won’t be enough. His foundation is good but it’s going to take more than voting to bring about structural reforms.

    Jordan was too busy winning six championships to focus on being a decent person. My GOAT. :hearno::alien::eh:

    Man my fiancé wanted to get a cabin off the grid for five days and I specifically planned it for the day after a scheduled finals game 7. Should’ve given it a couple days more cushion smh

    Absolutely not.
     
  14. a lot of important protests have happened because of spontaneity

    trying to plan something like this would end up leaking and getting the higher ups involved and diminishing the initial impact.

  16. The Bucks were ready to take the loss with a forfeit yesterday to highlight the issues going on in the state they play basketball in after George Hill and Sterling Brown felt uncomfortable playing yesterday and the rest of the team decided to stand in solidarity with their teammates - I think the vast majority of Bucks were expecting to play yesterday.

    The March on Washington was literally planned for two years.

    "this moment was always going to be a moment of spontaneity"

    I mean come on. You literally, right there, said it was "always" going to be a moment of spontaneity.

    I was commenting on it leaking and the impact being diminished. The president warned the March on Washington organizers and it still went through. It wouldn't have been diminished at all had they planned it better. In fact, it's possible we would've gotten an even BIGGER impact instead of them...striking through one set of games.
     
  24. This specific moment yes absolutely

    no where did I say all protests are like that and then you hit me with some unrelated fact about the Washington March

  25. Also spontaneity in the sense that George Hill or Sterling Brown could have thought they were gonna play until literally the moment they put on the jersey that says Milwaukee on it and the real gravity hit them

    I don’t think it was wrong how they did and I also don’t think it would have been wrong if they gave a heads up either

    pissing about the right or wrong way is muddling up the message
