Aversive or colorblind racism? WTF? All Lives Matter is not a "narrative". Dude you are a head case if there ever was one.Non racists know that for all lives to matter, black lives matter and support the black lives matter movement. The All Lives Matter narrative is another example of aversive or colorblind racismHow about when non-Racists just want to say that All lives matter? Is it OK then?When all lives matter is used by racists to divide people against a valid protest against injustice, those doing so are what is wrong.When 'All Lives Matter' is considered offensive you know something has gone very wrong.I'm right with you, I attended some of those Redskins games in RFK during the glory years. The atmosphere was so fun, nobody gave a shit what color you were, you were a SKINS fan. Now they've completely fucked it up with Black Lives Matter. I don't know if it will ever be the same. Very sad.NFL’s social justice messaging sparks anger in every direction
The NFL’s got a social justice blowback issue to deal with that’s not going away.www.google.com
The NFL cannot get it right these days. Opening weekend and a lot of fans tuned out or off. I grew up in the glory days of Washington DC football when the NFL was run by the ultimate PR machine, Pete Rozelle. The NFL could appeal to ALL people.
Inside the league’s smallest stadium, RFK Stadium, Blacks and whites, Republicans and Democrats, lawyers and construction workers, and environmentalists and hunters all stood side-by-side unified enjoying a great product.
In today’s era of awoke, things have changed. Somehow, multimillionaires running around with a pigskin ball complaining about being oppressed is not appealing to the masses. Putting the names of people slain by officers on the back of helmets is encouraged but putting the name of slain officers slain by people on the back of helmets is prohibited. Separate national anthems further drives people apart.
The NFL keeps shitting itself and losing millions. What now? Are you going to try and guilt everyone into supporting the league? Government bailout? My advice is to get back to playing football and stay out of politics. It’s killing you financially.
Black Lives Matter is very divisive.
