The cross-section of pro-Hong Kong and Blue Lives Matter is like one guy, and I get what he’s saying about censorship, but to put those movements in the same breath is impossible because you can’t talk and breathe with your mouth at the same time

And they don't actually care that much either way (which is the default position of, like, most people in the US).

It's a bad faith argument, but it's one Hawley can deploy to highlight hypocrisy and that's ammo and Twitter chuds will eat it up like candy, especially when Hawley can screenshot an email and put that in a Tweet. He's, obviously, not wrong for supporting BLM and Hawley's, obviously, not right for being against it. TFPIT Woj is an loving idiot for walking into blatantly obvious trap in manner that would make Wiley Coyote look thoughtful and careful.

What China is doing to Hong Kong, the Uighurs, and its citizens is disgusting, but I think most of us know that Hawley wouldn't give a poo poo if the Chinese government had a positive economic relationship with the United States.

Trying to tie basketball players' own personal issues with this nebulous sin by inaction over china is awful too. I wonder why the players give less of a poo poo about china than pigs abusing power

I was going to vote Democrat but then I saw that the NBA scoops master genrral Adrian Wojnoroski was a hypocrite on human rights abuses in China and said no sir, this is a bridge too far. To me the people who would see this "trap" as some sort of win for their side are already irredeemable. BWV fucked around with this message at 22:06 on Jul 10, 2020 |

Crazy Ted posted:It's less about giving Josh Hawley the benefit of the doubt and more about Woj being a loving eejit because he fell head-first into the most obvious trap of all time. What the US is doing to Puerto Rico, Native Americans, Black and Brown people is disgusting. Secretly they are high fiving at the ESPN head quarters about that F-bomb. No one gives a gently caress about a white prep school senator in this day and age. But more importantly, gently caress capitalism, nationalize ESPN.

It's not about changing votes, it's about stirring up your supporters for money, appearances, or sometimes even direct counter-action. It's worked like a charm during any sort of gun control conversation, and even recently with the Armed Michigan group that stormed the capital. "Blue Lives Matter" is just another buzzer to keep that hatred fueled. NBA is an easy target for this stuff.

"Blue Lives Matter" is just another buzzer to keep that hatred fueled. That makes sense but is Woj's "gently caress you " really bulletin board material? I guess I feel like even in the absence of real fuel they just invent it anyway so why should Woj miss out on telling a senator to gently caress off

Spacebump posted:Does anyone in this thread think the bubble plan will work? I don't see how they get to October (let alone August) without the bubble being compromised. I believe the bubble will work. I just had a vision that aliens will land in a spacecraft and deliver 7,800,000,000 vaccine shots to cure us all. Not many are even talking about the logistical (and economic) nightmare it'll be to roll out a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine to the entire planet (if a vaccine is even discovered). And its level of efficacy remains to be seen. Somewhat Heroic posted:This restart is going to be such a drag and the ‘champion’ that is crowned will forever hold the most hollow victory. Two rings. Dual championships. Maybe cancel next season too and have a three ring championship in 2022. LBJ gets hits threepeat. That's why he's not a GOAT coach.
