They don't have a right to not be labeled as frauds when they only stay woke when it is personally advantageous to them.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Funny how all of a sudden the Woke Bae League has simply "spoken out in police brutality a few times".

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Funny how you (and not they)are the person who provided that particular name for them. They have never referred to themselves as the "Woke Bae League" so why should you?

Because I want to make fun of a sports league and its players that brand themselves around wokeness, especially when that league and those players are such blatant hypocritical frauds about their wokeness.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

No it doesn't. NBA is a business. It isn't a Civil Rights organization.

They can't pick and choose.

Yes they can. And did.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Great! You were recently made aware that the NBA is first and foremost a business. At least now you know I guess.

OK then this makes them a business that is in bed with a genocidal communist regime. What now?

When will the snowflakes of the NBA get off their ass and play?

“As I’ve said before…we come to China with a certain set of core American values and principles,” Silver continued. “They have a different view of how things have been done, how things should be done. And hopefully, we can find mutual respect for each other.”

Trump praises Chinese president extending tenure 'for life'

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump praised Chinese President Xi Jinping Saturday after the ruling Communist party announced it was eliminating the two-term limit for the presidency, paving the way for Xi to serve indefinitely, according to audio aired by CNN.

"He's now president for life, president for life. And he's great," Trump said, according to audio of excerpts of Trump's remarks at a closed-door fundraiser in Florida aired by CNN. "And look, he was able to do that. I think it's great. Maybe we'll have to give that a shot someday," Trump said to cheers and applause from supporters.

As usual there was utter silence from the usual array of hypocrites when this particular heaping of praise was uttered.

Do you agree that refusing to hold exhibitions in US states explicitly over a bathroom law but then holding exhibitions in China and saying the league hopes to find "mutual respect" with the Chinese government (which is continually denying the freedom of its own citizens and literally cleansing a certain sect of them) is hypocritical of the NBA?

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

As the Trump administration initiates a possible trade war with China, the president’s businesses continue to benefit from partnerships involving the Chinese government, via state-backed companies and investors.

Chinese government-backed firms are slated to work on parts of two large developments — in Dubai and Indonesia — that will include Trump-branded properties.

The Trumps are the landlord to one of China’s top state-owned banks, which has occupied the 20th floor of Trump Tower in Manhattan since 2008. The bank’s lease is worth close to $2 million annually, according to industry estimates and a bank filing.

And despite the Trump administration’s focus on American manufacturing, assembly-line workers in China still produce blouses, shoes and handbags for the clothing line created by Trump’s daughter Ivanka, a White House adviser

Do you agree that it is hypocritical to constantly bash the NBA for its dealings with China while simultaneously providing a pass to Trump for similar dealings with China?

I can see you're not going to answer my question because even you can't deny how insanely hypocritical the NBA is being.

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

What's hypocritical is your castigation of the NBA while providing a pass to Trump for it. Again. You will never criticize Trump about anything. You're the actual hypocrite.

As far as the NBA goes (And America) it didn't take Daryl Morey speaking about China for them to know that they were human rights violators. They have always known that and yet they still conducted business with them anyway.

It's also fair to say that you don't give a damn about human rights violations in China and never have. You only cite it as a reason to bash the NBA for being the "woke" league.

"You're an asshole who doesn't really care about human rights violations in China!"

"The NBA doesn't care about human rights violations in China and that's fine!"

This is going to reach a head pretty soon.

Players have insisted that the fight for racial equality and social justice be a central part of the NBA's return to play and the WNBA's new season. Several NBA players considered skipping the NBA's resumption to focus on social justice issues.

The league is going to paint "Black Lives Matter" on its courts for the remainder of the season because they want social justice to be a central part of the league itself. I guess just not justice for, you know, Chinese citizens, right? They want to preach about social justice so much and so often that a message to that end is going to be emblazoned on every playing surface in the league, but want to find "mutual respect" with the Chinese regime that is engaging in ethnic cleansing and denying human rights.
