Another Kyrie Rant: Plantation Mentality Rejected

Joe Tsai never had any right in the first place to tell Kyrie Irving what he could or couldn't think, what he could or couldn't tweet, what he could or couldn't say. One immoral lash is a thousand too many. Careful what you appease because it will come back to enslave you.

Heed the Word Indeed: The Agency of Hate

by Scott Creighton

But I have a new love for that glittering instrument, the human soul. It is a lovely and unique thing in the universe. It is always attacked and never destroyed - because 'Thou mayest.' John Steinbeck

For the record, Kyrie Irving had nothing to apologize for except misquoting Malcolm X.

 

As long as the presentation is powerful, as long as the presenter seems respectable, few take the time these days to check sources. This failing may not be new but it is certainly problematic in this Meta world of sound-bite clout we live in.

Cynthia McKinney, someone I have had a great deal of respect for in the past, tweeted out this link to a man making a video driving in his car (lovely) about the Kyrie Irving situation. In it he threatens the Jewish community that they had better 'leave him alone' or else individuals like him will expose the Jewish role in the Atlantic slave trade and cause still more anger and hostility and division between races in America today. 

Oh good. More race-baiting. 

The man in the video shared by Cynthia is Dell K Brereton a.k.a. "The Real Spiel'. Either he misunderstood the source he referenced in his 'driving while angry' video The Jews Better Leave Kyrie Irving Alone!!! or he is deliberately misrepresenting the conclusions it drew. 

Let's do as Cynthia suggests and 'heed the words' the Real Spiel speaks, shall we?

No. The Nets Have No Right to Suspend Kyrie Over His Opinion

You ever heard of the Civil Rights Act? 1st Amendment ring any bells? How bout freedom of religion? Country Clubs and diners were businesses also. Get it? 

DePape to Kyrie: Calls for Censorship Increase

What curious timing.

ESPN Mandate Apologists Throw Kyrie Irving Under the Nets' Bus

NO ONE on sports talk can call it what it is. Of the 30 NBA teams, only 5 imposed a mandate on their players. The Nets were one of them. This video is about how Big Business uses their mouthpieces to set the narrative and avoid any scrutiny of the unnecessary mandates that screwed Nets fans' season because they know WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE MANDATES RETURN.
