    Our fight is there fight b/c we are fighting the same enemy

    as true as that is that is we need to hold folks to that on some you scratch our backs we scratch yours, cause with all tgis so called cominality we hold with everyone else, we find ourselves dealing with our exclusive ? on our own


    folks need to reciprocate their leverage n resources or hold their own nuts cause being the cheap mascot for a supposed one size fits all oppresion is tired

    extra especially for these so call liberal n poor whites that get thrown in our face when someone tries to throw a black hat in the arena of discussion (bernie sanders n co, holla)

    That may backfire and show ESPN true colors. He didn't do anything wrong.

    yeah i dont see ESPN taking any actions towards Bo.. if they do they would be proving exactly what hes trying to illustrate by wearing the the shirt

    And here's the really disturbing thing about this: In order to be on the same level as the Cleveland Indians, the shirt would have to say 'Crackers' or 'Honkeys' on it. Slur for slur. Because they're not the 'Cleveland Native Americans'. The shirt actually uses the correct sociological term for white people. But because they understand the intent, people are STILL up in arms. If that doesn't illustrate white privilege and some perceived superiority, what does?!

    Just the mere image itself is ? white folks off...and they don't get that's the entire point. This post just shows what added perspective puts the icing on the cake

    Nah they won't. They can't w/o a serious backlash...plus like I said he says way worse ? daily. Hell him and Danny Kanell got into a while back on twitter and ethered him and espn ain't do ? about that and you know how quick they are to punish their on air personalities for publicly beefing
    Bo on his first time.dunking

    The full story of this on his podcast is hilarious. Said dude had been chugging beers on the sideline and then went off like ol boy in White Men Can't Jump on some "I'm going to my car, going to get my gun, shooting everybody" ?

    some lack the conceptual fortitude to even realize the dichotomy maybe due to a severely calcified pineal gland

    All this reverse racism ? is hilarious to me. It shows how self absorbed and oblivious white folks are to white supremacy and white privilege. It's like they can't stand outside of themselves and put themselves in other people shoes.

    People like Bill Maher and some of the few who can.
