The very thing that the National Anthem kneelers are bitching about, is contradicted by their kneeling (or sitting) actions. They claim to be upset about oppression to blacks. But actually, by kneeling or sitting during the National Anthem, they show (confirmed by NFL Commissioner inaction), that there's a double standard in America. One for blacks, and one for non-blacks.
Trouble is, this double standard shows privilege to blacks, not oppression. It shows another example, among others, whereby blacks thinks they can do what whites cannot, and that they shouldn't be criticized. This is like how many blacks (not all) believe they are entitled to act differently than whites - often in ways that impact whites (and everyone) negatively.
A perfect example is Affirmative Action. To many blacks, racial discrimination is OK, as long as blacks are the beneficiaries, and whites are the victims. Just like Affirmative Action and kneeling during the National Anthem, many blacks will talk rude, cut in front of whites on lines, wear pants low - exposing their underwear, blast obnoxious (sometimes racist) "songs" on car radios, litter profusely, etc.
Who, over the age of 45, can forget when OJ Simpson was (foolishly) hired as an announcer for Monday Night Football ? OJ (a popular guy back then), shocked us all with his grammar that could only be called "atrocious". A typical sentence was >> "He good at tight end, cause he be strong, and he be fast."
Needless to say, OJ was yanked after one season, fully justifiably, but many blacks cried "racism!". To them, qualifications and competence didn't matter. To them, ABC TV was picking on OJ because he was black, or at least they were comfortable portraying it that way. They thought OJ should not have been fired because he had black immunity (AKA privilege ).
So now we see the NFL nitwits who think they are outside the bounds of criticism, even in disrespecting the National Anthem. How weird to hear them say they are expressing unity and respect, when that is exacly the opposite of what they're doing. It must be a combination of 1) growing up with black privilege thinking, and 2) pure stupidity.
