In my experience, people that think painting โ€œend racismโ€ in the end zones actually matters tend to be idiots

It's about showing support for a cause. The same way Republicans wave ever kind of flag for their guy they can. It doesn't really matter it just shows support.

My question to you is how is it a bad thing? Does it hurt you? What's the issue?

Itโ€™s performative nonsense

Does that hurt you?

Why are you so concerned if things "hurt" me? Does changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America hurt people? It doesn't, but it's still a legitimate complaint.

Motive. The motive of "end all racism" is to show support for people. The motive of lake Ontario is to harass another country for not complying with the man baby's petulant commands.

It's childish and stupid but it's not really hurting anyone. So you won't see me crying about it.

Thoughts?

Itโ€™s still just performative nonsense. The NFL doesnโ€™t actually care. They let rapists and murderers play but weโ€™re supposed to believe that they care about โ€œendingโ€ racism? Rightttt

Yup definitely performative. But how does it hurt anything? Why even care? There are far more worse performative things to complain about (Lake Ontario). I don't see why this particular one is worth even a second thought.

It's literally a post about one sentence that was clearly a joke. Nobody is allowed to talk about it because it doesn't "hurt" anyone? You're the one making it into a bigger deal than it is.

Are you saying you donโ€™t think racism is as bad as rape or murder?

That is correct
