Former NBA star Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is attacking conservative and anti-woke celebrities, demanding that social media giants step up censorship because these stars are tweeting “irrational and harmful opinions to millions.”
In The Hollywood Reporter, Abdul-Jabbar singled out conservative Hollywood stars Jon Voight and James Woods. He also targeted celebrities who refuse to submit to woke ideology, including Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling..
“Social media companies have begun slapping warnings on some messages that are false, incite violence or cause harm to society. But this needs to be done with more consistency and vigilance,” Abdul-Jabbar wrote. “Many Americans imbue stars with political and social intelligence they just don’t have.”
He made no mention of left-wing celebrities who have tweeted false and defamatory claims. Some have even called for violence on conservatives.
Filmmaker Rob Reiner has repeatedly tweeted President Trump is a murderer and a white supremacist and all of his supporters are racists. Actress Debra Messing once tweeted that President Trump is a rapist and pedophile. She recently expressed her hope that the president gets raped in prison. None of these posts has received a fact check or disciplinary action from Twitter.
Social media platforms increased their fact-checking efforts in the weeks leading up to the election. But much of their energy was focused on censoring President Donald Trump by blocking some of his tweets and suppressing damaging stories to Joe Biden, such as the New York Post‘s series of reports on the Biden family scandal.

Hypocrisy from a Muslim racist.
That’s it in a nutshell.
Yeah, but my hero Dave Cowens was 1-0 against him in head to head NBA Championships.
Kareem Abdul is a RACIST ASSHOLE.
However, because of the time of year I won’t say it.
ok, Minnie Mandela. Tire necklaces next?
More useless clickbait from Breitbart. Breitbart was started for the purpose of investigative journalism. The editor at the failing Breitbart should investigate his pants to see if he can find his balls.
CORRECTION
"Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is/was a Hanafi Muslim, a group which he bankrolled at large house in Washngton DC, the site of a murderous slaughter of an entire generation of Hanafi women and children by the Nation of Islam run by Elijah Muhammed, (of which Ali was a member of and controlled by).
Alcindor/Jabbar has never said a word publicly about that slaughter of a whole generation of his Hanafi muslims by the Nation of Islam.
Why?
Because he wants to stay alive.
Kiss my ass you racist bigot Careem.
When I was little and playing basketball in school, I used to look up to him. He was the giant in basketball at the time. Now, I think he’s just a small little man and have very little respect for him.
“Is he a member of Louis Farrakhan’s church?”
As uninformed as he is on free speech and other things I was glad to see he apparently does not like Farrakhan.
“I am an Orthodox Muslim,″ Abdul-Jabbar said. I am not a part of Minister Farrakhan’s little group. He is part of the problem, not part of the solution. He is a demagogue taking advantage of misery in the black community.”
Speaking of Wilt I found a fun quote from him:
“Having a thousand different ladies is pretty cool, I’ve learned in my life. I’ve (also) found out that having one woman a thousand different times is more satisfying.”
But he hasn’t actually done anything
And-—You just KILLED all that effort.
“Bring out your dead.”. Monty Python.

Shut up and dribble, Lew. Entertain the tards who watch your useless sport.
😆😏😁
“I have been writing books and articles about history, culture and politics for 30 years to establish my credibility.”
Perhaps he should read more and sound off less....like the first amendment for free speech and equal protection under the law. When you use a worthless notoriety to harm people, you have no credibility. I believe that, and he, is defined as a rogue.
