Deplorables won? No more kneeling during the anthem? Oops, they're kneeling...

[RoryN]

Eight University of Mississippi basketball players kneeled during the national anthem ahead of Saturday's home game in response to pro-Confederate rally nearby.

If they didn't kneel, would anybody really know about the rally?


They elevated the protestors to their level...

Assuming that a lot of people follow UM basketball.
I know you don't, so you are following the MSM which knows
beyond a shadow of doubt that they have a cadre full of useful tools out there.

Tools willing to advance this narrative with the same glee and gusto as they did the Smollett story.

A basketful of tools. Too bad most of them are left-handed hammers and screwdrivers...

How do you know that? Are you living Rory's life?

do you follow them?

Or do you know about this now only because you're up in the morning, looking for engagement, followed Rory into his thread and learned something new like usual?

I mean, you didn't even know who Karl Lagerfeld was, so...

Either one stands up against hate...or you condone it. Really is simple

BS^^^. I'm glad people continue to protest Confederate rallies and ignore this sort of convoluted BS from right wing apologists.

The right wing will now trot out the Smollett exception every time there is a legitimate form of civil rights protest.

Exactly how poorly educated are these "student"-athletes?

Maybe someone should explain to them (and you) how the flag they're kneeling under was the same flag (less a few stars) that the men who defeated the Confederacy fought and died under.

Are you trying to embarrass ypurself?

We tried doing it your way, housesquaw.....and got Trump as President as a result.

Ignoring a festering wound won't make it go away. It gets worse, as evidenced by the rise of White Supremacist groups in America (along with their half-breed cheerleading auxilliary).

I commend the players for taking a stand against the pro-confederacy shitweasels by taking a knee.

Progressive democrats do both!!

Remember condoning hate is ok as long as that hate is pointed in the "correct* direction comrade.

Making money BAD!!!

White men BAD!!!

Private Property BAD!!!

Individual rights BAD!!!

Freedom from state control BAD~!!

Que, go ahead down to Old Miss and mansplain to those player-protesters how they should be following the right wing playbook for protesting

You just don't get it, do you?
What’s the point of standing for the Stars and Stripes when there are dimbulbs outside celebrating the Stars and Bars?

Wonder how many months pay it would cost to drive his Yugo alllll the way to Mississippi?

You can't even parrot idiotic progressive tropes correctly. How would that be "mansplaining?"

What is a "right wing playbook for protesting?"

It's amusing that you don't see how idiotic it is to kneel before Old Glory to protest someone supporting The Stars and Bars. It's as if you and they don't understand which side the Union was on.

Wait till they find out Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.

Someday, people may actually learn that the Republican Party during the Civil War, promoted beliefs held by the Democratic Party today. And vice versa.

But I am not holding my breath.

In the modern lexicon, mansplaining has come to encompass all types of condescending explanations by know-it-all men.

Go ahead and drive down to Mississippi to condescendingly describe your theory on how taking a knee during the flag worshipping ceremony is an inappropriate form of non-violent protest. Mansplain to them how they should not insinuate that America still has some issues to work out. Let them know that expressing their free speech in a quiet manner is too provocative.

The Republicans of the Civil War era subscribed to the idea of the soft bigotry of low expectations?

The only difference today in the party of Jim Crow the party of the clan the party of segregation then the party of lynchings is that these days they believe that they own blacks. Which is more or less true since eighty-five 90% of the votes go Democrat due to scare-mongering, patronage jobs, and government largesse.

Add "lexicon" to the long list of concepts you do not understand.

Where the hell did you get that I said they can't protest or that it is too provocative? I said it was idiotic not provocative. Being an idiot is not provocative.

 

[Dribble]

Being an idiot is not provocative.

Trust us, we know. Just surprised you claim to know.

Mansplain the word lexicon to us.

You stated that their provocative protest elevated the pro-Confederacy protest taking place outside to the basketball court.

The actions of the player-protesters were not "idiotic", but feel free to mansplain to them why you think they were. I'm sure they will be hanging on your every word.

Who is this "we" you claim to be a part of?

I regularly see you piling on when you think that you can be part of some sort of mob but I don't really ever see you leading the charge.

Do you actually fantasize that anyone would notice if you left?

Yeah. I said no such thing.

Start at the top of the thread, read all of the posts by everyone... pay attention to who said what ...and then get back to me.

Yup, Deplorables sure are being effective in getting those uppity protesters to stop kneeling during the public flag-worshipping ceremonies.
