[QUOTE="Ana the Ist, post: 73587258, member: 302807"] It's hard to imagine another motivation. Can you imagine any possible way that kneeling for the anthem during a football game would [B][I]ever[/I][/B] affect "police brutality"? There's plenty of ways that he could really have made a difference....from volunteering his time with inner city youths, to fundraising, etc. Instead, he chooses to do what will garner him the most attention and praise. Oh I think it's not difficult to guess, is it? Do you think that maybe he was concerned that by performing....people would assume that he's "for police brutality", racist, or otherwise morally deficient? Do you think that maybe he was concerned about those things because that's how the left depicts anyone who doesn't "agree" with Colin's "protest"? You're right....anyone can do as they like. The thing is, when they do it conspicuously out of place...like during the anthem, or a shaving cream commercial....and their goals are unclear or non-existent (because Colin can't possibly affect police brutality by kneeling during the anthem anymore than Gillette can affect sexual assault with a commercial lol) one should definitely question why they chose to do what they did. It's not about you...it's about the argument several posters were either making, suggesting, or beginning to suggest. The argument that the only reason why anyone would have a problem with the commercial in question is their personal moral failings. As I said, it's the go-to tactic of the left. The only reason why you're against illegal immigration is that you're racist. The only reason why you wouldn't support Colin is you're some white supremacist oppressor. The only reason why you wouldn't be against toxic masculinity is that you're a misogynist/rape apologist/sexual predator. If you want help...I can point out where the discussion started to turn in that direction. I'm not making this up. I'll tell you what though, you're a reasonable person...so I'll just ask you this... You agree that people can dislike or disagree with the commercial and it has no bearing whatsoever on whether or not they are a moral person, right? Just as agreeing with the commercial doesn't automatically make you a "good" person even in regards to the subject matter of the commercial? [/QUOTE]
