America has become a place where entertainers and professional athletes are mistaken for people of importance.

“But there seems to have been an actual decline in rational thinking. The United States had become a place where entertainers and professional athletes were mistaken for people of importance. They were idolized and treated as leaders; their opinions were sought on everything and they took themselves just as seriously — after all, if an athlete is paid a million or more a year, he knows he is important … so his opinions of foreign affairs and domestic policies must be important, too, even though he proves himself to be both ignorant and subliterate every time he opens his mouth. (Most of his fans were just as ignorant and unlettered; the disease was spreading.)” ― Robert A. Heinlein, To Sail Beyond the Sunset

Robert A Heinlein was a very insightful man.

Who gives a F about what Lebron James emotes? He is the poster child of what is wrong with America. Don’t ever watch basketball again. Don’t buy their products. Don’t listen to these Marxist a-holes. Don’t buy from any of their advertisers.

Uneducated, vapid people require hero worship to give meaning to their pathetic lives.

King LeBron - as Trump’s crowd said, “LeBron James sucks, LeBron James sucks!”

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has been a very vocal and active part of the 2020 Election process. Just this week, he helped contribute more than $27 million to ensure that felons would be able to vote.
On Tuesday, James spoke out once more – this time in response to what he perceives to be shoddy election site practices. The four-time NBA champion retweeted a video of a woman allegedly being “denied her right to vote despite arriving on time [and] waiting on line.”

James publicly endorsed Joe Biden for president some weeks back, which wasn’t much of a shock given the repeated issues he and President Donald Trump have had. Their feud was on full display this past Monday, when President Trump mocked both James and the NBA at one of his rallies. The crowd subsequently started to chant “LeBron James sucks,” which President Trump seemed to enjoy.

“How about basketball?” President Trump said. “How about Lebron? I felt badly for LeBron. I felt very badly. Down 71% and that’s for their championship — I didn’t watch one shot. I get bored. … You know why? When they don’t respect our country, when they don’t respect our flag, nobody wants to watch. Nobody!”

Several weeks ago, James was asked about his ongoing beef with the President of the United States.

“I don’t go back and forth with anybody,” James noted. “And I damn sure won’t go back and forth with that guy. “But we want better, we want change in our community. We always talk about, ‘We want change,’ and now we have the opportunity to do that.”

Before that, President Trump referred to James as a “hater.”

“He’s a great basketball player, but people don’t want to see a guy that’s that way,” he said. “They don’t want to see that. … He’s a hater.”

President Trump also claimed that James and his cohorts in the NBA were the reason for the league’s declining TV ratings.

“You don’t want to sit down, watch a basketball game, and then watch somebody that hates your guts, okay.”

Of course, James didn’t seem too shaken up by the prospect of President Trump and his supporters no longer watching the NBA.

“You trying to make me laugh right now?” James asked. “I appreciate that. I really don’t think the basketball community are sad about losing his viewership, him viewing the game. And that’s all I got to say.”

One way or another, a new chapter in the ongoing rivalry between James and President Trump will be written this week. Either the latter will lose to Vice President Biden and James’ efforts will be an important reason why, or he will win and all of the Lakers star’s work will be for naught. An answer should come within the next 24 to 72 hours.

Heinlein is like George Orwell - writing of futures that, though fiction, sometimes reflected directions they saw in bits and pieces of things in their own time.

I think the quote by Heinlein is ever so much as prophetic as Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm.

If I wanted political advice from someone who chased a ball around, I’d ask a dog.

Apparently it is a video of someone telling abut a liberal woman voter who got to the pols and was told she could not vote because the polls were closed. Like her vote would have made a difference at all.

““I don’t go back and forth with anybody,” James noted. “And I damn sure won’t go back and forth with that guy. “But we want better, we want change in our community. We always talk about, ‘We want change,’ and now we have the opportunity to do that.”

Prior to Trump, we went 8 years with a black president that did nothing for his community. Where were you then Labrat. Where was your change? And if you want change, do something besides complain about it. Get people that can do things to help the issue together rather than college grads that didn’t attend their classes just bitching about it and do violence for a living for more money than a large majority of black people living in the US will ever see. This type of action is nothing other than just a way to deflect blame and not have to take responsibility for your own faults OR life? And that makes you a coward.
