Honestly should Kyrie get kicked out the nba. He should start a show or podcast where he can get his opinions off.

Might as well start a new career. He’ll have the money and support to do it.

Like it or not he’s becoming a martyr for some
I don’t feel like looking for it but there’s a video predicting kyrie retiring early just like this from years ago. Complete with him talking about it back when he was in Cleveland on a podcast. Said his friend called him. “the lauryn hill of the nba”

Kyrie is going to lose millions from this might even lose his career.
Yeah and he has the power to stop all of it with a simple “sorry”
My post was not saying the persecution was equal but rather that he is being persecuted for his beliefs which are not mainstream in their respective time periods. It was to show how bullshyt religion is more than anything.

If there were millions of Hebrew Israelites and nations dominated by that religion shyt would be different.
He’s not being persecuted for his beliefs. He won’t even say what his beliefs actually are.

He said himself there were things in the documentary that were false and antisemitic. All they asked him to do was strongly denounce those things and apologize for sharing them.

He can believe he’s jewish as much as he wants. Just like last year when he was muslim they let him do that.

For me, this ain't about supporting Kyrie. It's about the slippery slope that could happen. For example, if I'm a christian athlete and I post a scripture that said people who don't believe in Jesus will die in their sins. And obviously Jews who reject the Messiah fall in that category, why couldn't I get suspended. Even though that's what I believe my religion teaches.

Let's take it a step further. What if I post this Malcolm X video on my timeline without comment?




Now, of course some will say this is clearly anti-semetic. Which is fine if you feel that way. But if I posted it to see if people agree or disagree with Malcolm. Can I do that? Or would I have to explain my intention before posting a video like this?

Anthony Edward's put a video up mocking the gays, arguably more indicting and he didn't get this much heat.
Don't wake the Alphabet crew up bringing this back up.

:ufdup:

The difference with that was Ant publicly apologized immediately after that got out

I think Kyrie is an idiot. And I don’t agree with shyt he says really. But him being suspended is bullshyt. He don’t deserve to be suspended but he brought it on himself

This. Is. fukked. Up.

We really need to take a closer look at this "relationship" between Black people and Jewish people. Not with conspiracy or things that can't be sourced, but with actual facts. The good, the bad, and the ugly what is the truth? Are they our "allies" that fought for "civil rights" or is the truth more...complicated? :mjpls:

My god you may be the dumbest motherfukker on this website.

If a white dude rolls onto a job with a confederate flag & the boss doesn’t like it, then yes they’re getting punished. If a white dude has a confederate flag & his boss agrees with what it stands for, then no he isn’t.

The nets didn’t agree with what Kyrie posted you idiot.

Man shut up with this grand standing bullshyt like you are a constitutional lawyer or some shyt.


I'm asking a perfectly reasonable question international citizen.

THIS IS ANTI SEMETIC

:devil:
:evil:


Man they need to get on with that shyt.

we bombarded with anti black realities daily and deal and these dudes act like the world is ending when a pseudo intellectual millionaire with more time than intelligence does some smart dumb shyt.


I'm fairly left leaning and even I'm beginning to get annoyed with things now.

He IS being persecuted for his beliefs. He said he is semitic so he cant be antisemitic (this after the statement denouncing things like the holocaust is fake). Boom suspended for saying he is semitic.

Yeah I guess

They need to go all the way and have it be indefinite until he's moved if that's their only option

I just don't like the idea of suspending someone for being an idiot and stubborn.

He's an idiot for promoting that in a tweet, and then doubling down with his babbling nonsense answers , but I don't feel like there's hatred in what he's doing. He just has dumb young girl energy

I don't think he gave them any choice though. He's clearly not going to change. He's given up $20+ mil because of his beliefs.

He's gonna keep sinking their brand. They're not winning on the court. They have a new issue with him every week and he won't shut up. They're not even selling tickets like that with KD on the roster. What can they realistically do? He's not gonna listen to anyone
