Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Praises MLB Moving All-Star Game: ‘This Means Something to Everybody’
breitbart ^ | 2 Apr 2021 | PAM KEY

Posted on 04/03/2021 5:52:22 AM PDT by MarvinStinson

Former professional basketball player Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said Friday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Major League Baseball moving the All-Star Game from Atlanta, GA following the passage of a new voter law “means something to everybody.”

Melber asked, “Kareem, what does it mean for Major League Baseball to take a stand like this right now?”

Abdul-Jabbar said, “I think it’s very significant, Ari, because it shows that this means something to everybody. This is something that we all want to see end. Voter suppression is not what democracy is about. We all want to see it end. By Major League Baseball making a statement like that, they show that they are concerned and that the people — that so many of their players are people of color, they’re probably worried about it also.”

voter law “means something to everybody”

Most people have no idea what’s in it they just go by what the propaganda media says what’s in it facts be damned.
Biden is the prince of lies and the media backs him what a dangerous lot.

It means, Abdul-Jabbar, that you are aiding and abetting the cabal that disenfranchised God knows how many black Trump supporters.

Didnt want to be tall and pbysically coordinated and well, himself. Fame is a big burden when people idolize you for what you can do physically...when you wre born with those capabilities, and you can sharpen your skills well.
He hasn’t handled the vagaries of human existence well...he is just a tall,athletic finger pointer.

Did he read the law? Or is he like (the Not G.O.A.T.) Lebron James and only pretends to read the first page of what he pretends to be reading? (Google it).

alex_busek: Don’t you have a compost pile that needs turning? A garden needing tending?

Starcitizen: WHY in the heck would I ever want to do that? Absolutely NO interest in that. Don’t garden, fish, hunt, camp, hike etc etc. No interest at all in outdoor activities.

Then: Crossword puzzle books to complete? Family trees to finish investigating? Scrap books to bind? Old photo albums to order? Elderly relatives to visit? Grandchildren to dandle on your knee?

Regards,

“I don’t think there’s a return to normalcy/decency.”

Certainly doesn’t seem to be.

What a numbskull. Has he been complaining about “voter suppression” since he became of voting age or did he just get convinced that “we’re” out to get him? Did “whitey” boycott his games because he was black? They don’t have a clue how stupid they are!

———-
Yeah they sure are.

But serious, honest question.

As company after company goes woke, is everyone willing to basically do without? Is it fair to any family to force them live an austere lifestyle where practically everything is forbidden. No entertainment, no sports, no branded foods, no non-Chinese overseas goods (er Amazon). Sounds a lot like a Quaker existence.

Remember, the woke company list is increasing by the minute.

Other than being a prepper and being self-sufficient in everything, can it actually be done? Are there enough non-woke companies to provide for basic wants and needs? Or is it a lot of doing without?
