NBA Store Allows ‘Defund Police,’ ‘Beware of Jews’ on Custom Jerseys, But Not ‘Free Hong Kong’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 13 July 2020 | Andrew Stiles

In keeping with league policy on political statements, the official online store of the NBA does not permit fans to order a custom jersey with the phrase "Free Hong Kong" printed on the back.

"Free Hong Kong" is one of the many phrases banned under the NBA's new jersey policy, which allows players to display certain political messages such as "Black Lives Matter," but prohibits messages critical of the Chinese regime.

Typing "Free Hong Kong" into the text box on the NBA store's custom jersey page returns the following message: "We are unable to customize this item with the text you have entered. Please try a different entry."

Here are some of the phrases that don't receive such a warning:

F—K HONG KONG DEFUND POLICE ABOLISH COPS BEWARE OF JEWS SNEAKY JEWS BAN GYPSIES XI FOR LIFE CANCEL ISRAEL NINE 11 HOAX END TAIWAN ENSLAVE TIBET TRUMP HAS AIDS PENCE IS GAY UYGHURS LIE

#12. Adam Silver is a coward. We don’t consider him a reliable Jew.

Glad to see that the NBA is allowing anti-Semitism to appear on their products. Makes our case that some NBA players and employees are anti-semites.

Let’s see if this information appears in the Jewish press across the country and if ADL will condemn it, or ignore it.

I also hope that Michael Jordan speaks up against anti-Semitism and the other pro-communist messages about Hong Kong, Taiwan, the Uighars and Tibet.

Wonder if Red China has paid some NBA players to be their frontmen on these issues? worth looking into.

They’re really gonna put anti-Jewish stuff on their jerseys? Oh, please do! Isn’t Adam Silver, the NBA Commissioner, Jewish?

Then let the NBA move all their players, managers, and owners to PEKING in the PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF CHINKLAND!

Were all RACISTS here anyway; and about 98 or 99% of players are BLACK (who gives a shit about the managers or owners), they should have wonderful/free lives in RED Chinkland!

Jerseys and t-shirts made by Uyghurs, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz and other interned ethnic groups. Pathetic.

Do you have a link? I’m curious if some of the others are still available. Like BurnJews.
