For my part, I would never buy a Nike product again because of their employment of Kaepernick alone, but their attitude and pandering on nearly every single issue of any kind is enough in each case to compel me to happily forego their products. I subscribe to the “Get Woke, Go Broke” mindset because of the racist and stupid “social justice” implications in the phrase “Get Woke” that they seem so fond of.

You hear Lefitsts complain that Kaepernick is a victim of racism himself, was colluded against by owners because of his race, blah blah blah.

If you haven’t read my post on this in the past that I posted above, I pinged you to it because I thought you might find it interesting and/or useful.

The people who defend Kaepernick in these matters and spout the crap about Kaepernick as a victim of racism have knowledge of his professional capabilities that is only a few molecules thick, and you might find any one of the points presented above a useful implement to scratch through that veneer of knowledge they use in defense of Kaepernick to buttress their real ignorance.

Nike is evil. Do a search on Mark Parker art. Parker is the CEO of Nike. He’s into the same Tony Podesta type art, children with blood and skulls type stuff.

Pandering to liberals worked for the press, newspapers, magazines, and CNN... why wouldn't it work for Nike? /s

(Every sector of the economy is growing - EXCEPT 'the press' (newspapers, magazines, liberal networks etc) - - they're suffering from an economic depression of their own making. May Nike -- in their insanity - join them soon...)

Amen to that. I refer to the former 49ers QB as “Copper Nickel”. Partly because I can’t or won’t take the time to figure out how to spell his surname as he wishes. Mostly because, like the U.S. coins made of that metallic content, he initially shone like silver but is basically worthless.

Like the Wildcat formation, his style of QB was hailed as “innovative” because it was a wrinkle on the standard offense, catching other teams off-guard and vulnerable. Once the other teams’ defensive coordinators had enough time and tape to analyze his moves, they were able to neutralize him, and his glaring deficiencies as a more standard QB were exposed and exploited.

Kaepernick is such a victim of racism that he was adopted and lived with WHITE FOLKS.
