Kyrie is a kook. Not about his vax stance, but just in general. Not exactly a role model for anyone.
Hero. Because of his youth and high visibility, serves as an inspiration. Well done.
Me? I did the same, lost my job and much needed income, but I’m a nobody. I did learn a lot about the country that I thought I knew in the process.
He should run for Mayor. Finally, someone with some common sense.
Kyrie Irving is a few sandwiches short of a picnic, but he’s totally correct on this one.
Seems like a class action lawsuit should be initiated for all the unvaccinated who lost or will lose jobs.
I never heard of the Brooklyn Nets. Are they a new team?
These guys are heroes against the largest medical crime in history.
He really didn’t “pay” anything. He just didn’t get that contract extension, because with the various mandates and restrictions in place he’d be able to play in less than half the team’s games. He made his choice, the Nets made a perfectly valid business decision, Kyrie still gets phat cash, mandates are gone. Trying to paint it as some great sacrifice is silly.
I was shocked how many people who I thought were strong and had great integrity ultimately caved out of fear of losing their job, their home, their pension. I credit my faith-- to accept and be complicit in coercing medical procedures on people against their will is evil and no one can convince me otherwise. I trusted that doing what was right by God was far more important than my comfort, my home or even my life.
The greatest irony in all of this to me is that because I have been tested weekly throughout and received anti-body testing as well, I KNOW that I have never had the virus, despite being in the office with no breaks and having dozens of known exposures (I never cared, I spent days with folks who were sick with it in close quarters). Everyone who caved and got the vax that I know has had COVID multiple times, so what was the point of it all really?
Kyrie is a nutcase, especially with his flat-Earth takes and difficulty in being coached. But give him his due. Not many would opt for principle over money, although having earned nearly $200M in NBA salary (plus his endorsement money) makes it easier to do.
Let that sink in.
They attested to their own fraud when issuing the illegal mandate.
Nuremberg II
Several brave Americans stepped up and spoke out against this tyranny. Some we’ll never know about and it was a hard thing to do.
Dr. Simone Gold went to jail. Thank you Kyrie and everyone else.
