I don’t keep up with sports, but I know who Enes Kantner is.
I am very happy he’s been speaking up about human rights violations in China. But it’s not surprising to hear that he’s been traded to another team. A team he apparently would prefer not to go to. When you spend a great deal of your time speaking up publicly for what some consider to be controversial causes, that is going to get noticed.
At some point, your employer may think your political image has eclipsed your athletic image. Most Team Owners of today are as ‘allergic’ to Lib Rage as Roger Goodell, and will quickly do what they think it takes to get the Lib Ragers off their backs.
As I said, I know who Enes is. I have been waiting for him to enter politics anyway. I think he is a US citizen since last year. He would make a great young Republican.
First, I dont really feel bad about him because he’s now an AMERICAN CITIZEN. He would easily be deported back to the gulag with the ragheads if he were not now a proud American.
Second, he made close to $30 million his career. He’s not hurting for money. If he were working for $15 hour,and got fired, sure I would feel for the dude but he aint.
Now he’s got lots of time to tear Pedo Joe and the leftards a new a**hole and can speak freely..
You’re overlooking the fact that the NBA encouraged players to do this.
They’re supposed to support black lives matter.
