Until very recently, it would have been hard to imagine anything more iconic of American life than Coca Cola and baseball. Today both remind me of Benito Mussolini’s corporatist – aka, fascist -- game of merging of state and corporate power. The CEOs of these operations should hang their heads in shame and fire their public-relations teams. So should the CEOs of Delta and American Airlines, Black Rock, Cisco, American Express, and American Airlines, who have promoted President Biden’s false assertions that tightening election procedures to bring them back into line -- and in accord with those of civilized Western governments elsewhere -- is racist voter suppression. I’m fed up with this never-ending sham: partisan power grabs to weaken the most important features of American life being cloaked in virtuous anti-racism.
The immediate target of these corporate actions was efforts by Georgia and Texas to revise their election laws, laws which in many states have resulted in widespread disbelief that the 2020 elections were conducted on the up and up. When people believe election procedures are untrustworthy, it shatters voluntary acceptance of the election results. Under pressure from racist propagandists of the left and using COVID as an excuse, jurisdictions in several states so loosened the election rules that widespread fraud was made easier. One state in particular was Georgia, where asleep at the switch (or corrupt -- your choice) officials permitted the sloppy, untrustworthy, opaque, and disputed election procedures.
In an effort to prevent a repeat, Georgia enacted a new election law. (In pdf form it’s 104 pages, and that makes it unlikely to me that any of the corporate bleating about it was made with knowledge of its contents.)

Henry rifles?
George Washington and Apple Pie.
Baseball is quintessentially American. But the sport has been so exploited it is being stolen from America.
Baseball is now a stage from whichi America is destroyed. baseball no longer supports America or iots constitution. So it needs to be ignored. Let the major leagues fail commercially, Boycott them. Boycott the ignorant athletes whop WE AMERICANS have made into millionaires and who now bite the hands that have fed them.
Baseball players are no longer patriots. They no longer support the constitution. Instead they support Utopian fascists and communists by following Saul Alinsky.
MLB needs more Rick Mondays.
The Bill of Rights.
The MLB can move to Cuba before I watch another game.
I’ll second that!
Yeah. That time he rescued the flag from that commie jerk in right field made me cry.
And the Declaration of Independence.
Let the major leagues fail commercially, Boycott them. Boycott the ignorant athletes whop WE AMERICANS have made into millionaires and who now bite the hands that have fed them.

Not enough. Teardown any city owned ball fields and sell the land for housing and job creation.
What’s more American? Boycotting traitors . . .
...and Curt Schillings.
“Not enough. Teardown any city owned ball fields and sell the land for housing and job creation.”
No. Baseball isn’t the problem, and Americans should keep playing it.
Not enough. Teardown any city owned ball fields and sell the land for housing and job creation.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Agreed,
Yogi Bera resembles your remark.
All professional sport except for NASCAR now is a vector for Alinsky- leftist , jingoistic propaganda. The Olympics are as well now.
I ignore all of it.
NOOSECAR is woke & dead.
What’s wrong with showing photo ID to vote?
You have to do that here in Canada, same in Britain, France, Australia, NZ, etc - every modern country.
Dems and their Big media shills should be forced to produce one person who doesn’t have photo ID ... how can you survive without it? You can’t cash a cheque, open a bank account, get welfare or even a bus ticket
Leftists need to be called out on this one
NOOSECAR is woke & dead.>>>>
If so, then I’ll ignore them too.
Mountain Dew and Bocci Ball?
MLB was the last source of sports entertainment that I contributed to until this final straw that broke the camels back.
MLB has gone full blown communist and can rot in hell.
I removed all sports apps from my cell phone and canceled my MLB all access account. All my sports jerseys ripped to shreds and burned in the fire pit. No more listening to games on satellite radio. I am done with them.
The only thing I want now is to see them dead and the stadiums demolished.
