I know, and I'm operating off of the standard you presented.
They both do the same thing, if the standard is the standard, you can't change it when it blows back on the guy you are defending.
IF its bad to mix with whites, then shannon is guilty
If its bad to talk about money and etc, shannon is guilty
If we are saying a person hasn't done anything outside of the sport, well Shannon hasn't done anything outside of the sport.
Why would AB need to make a line when he doesn't present himself as a character on a tv show? Shannon has made a distinction between himself and the fictional character he portrays.
HOw is AB being himself c00ning?
Kooning is self serving acts at the expense of the majority
The standards for separating entertainment and IRL naturally separates koons from Black folks doing an entertainment job
Shannon's clear separation of entertainment and IRL via his outspokenness on issues, Black kids, and the lack of props usage for most of his on-air time, suggest he's not a koon
AB is the stereotype of a Black professional athletes, emotional self-centered, reckless talk, new money that seeks attention and constantly needs to portray worth...koon
Fawking is natural and doesn't need a long term commitment
Breeding, unlike fawking is kooning because the strength of the Black community is the Black family, which is strengthened by the Black individuals. The long term commitment of pro-Black lifers is the empowerment of the Black community which isn't possible via interracial relationships. Not a far-fetched concept because there're rarely inter-faith/inter-political unions due to the difficulties of upholding conflicting beliefs and goals
"mix with whites" is a generic slippery slope comment that allows folks with agendas to easily stir the convo in any direction they wish because it could broadly reference everything from breeding with whites to being neighbors, thus a person could be recklessly called a koon for buying a computer from a white person, which is silly. So depending on who you speak to, you'll need to be more specific about what actions with white will constitute kooning
Talking about money isn't kooning unless you're carelessly upholding some stereotypes like some of these Black rappers and professional athletes
AB undermined his black head coach who the media is constantly trying to put on the hot seat but Shannon is the problem because he jokes about Henny and milds?
We've heard Shannon speak the truth on various racial and social issues and AB has said what exactly on anything that matters?
No he didn't. Nobody is calling Shannon a c00n simply cause he drinks Hennessy. Context matters - He regularly acts classless on a talk show to please his white producers
AB was talking a bunch of nonsense
Is he completely at fault no
I believe Big Ben, and management are cancers to the team just as much as people blame ab
And why the shots at randy as if being an analyst is a bad thing he’s getting paid anywhere from 6-7 figures to talk about football I can’t think of a better job than that
And Shannon always speaks on black issues with no hesitation or reserve
