Thank u for responding back in a concise and articulate fashion. im only here for the good convo.
To ur point. Not everything that is on the surface a "good thing"... is really a good thing. What Kap is kneeling/standing for is a good msg, but its not like we havent already had the msg. but because of the controversy, it has enhanced the spotlight. A Good Thing...
However, Kap is a guy who showed no signs of having any objective in life beyond playing football, being young, and having fun. up until recently after he started dating nessa. Who herself is a mix of thot-ish tendencies and socio-political rhetoric...
If what i believe is true, that him getting into a relationship sparked this new found consciousness in him (and the timeline seems to prove that) then he is a person that is potentially headed for a personal downfall and the msg he is trying to promote might fall with him.
Because the passion he is displaying for the message is directly tied into the relationship with this woman. If the relationship with this woman goes sour, what happens to the passion that he has for The Cause? Because The Cause didnt grow inside of him thru personal experience, or teachings over a long period of time, it came to him because he cares for this woman.
Ive seen this play out in real life all the time (usually with women tho). Person A gets with person B. Person B influences person A, to eat diff, change religion, cut off fam/friends, etc... Person A is captivated by person B. So they change... Person B leaves Person A.
Person A goes back to old ways.
1 more thing...people thinking everybody is a c00n for disagreeing with the herd... Vicks a c00n... now ray lewis is a c00n. 2 dudes who are really black and actually been thru some shyt, are c00ns but Kap who was raised in a white household is golden? Again, im not saying the msg is wrong... but I dont think people on this website should be studying up before they jump on bandwagons and start jumping off bridges for people
