The kneeling is all about race, and making it political.
I’d say when players who kneel like the race baiting liar Michael Bennet, and say they will raise a fist for black panthers every time he sacks a white QB; they make it more about black power and turn off the majority of their white fan base who do not agree with the made up stories and made up narrative.
Not a big difference between the KKK and black panthers. Both seek violence instead of peace.
If a white player said he would do a symbol for white power every time he makes a play, I’m guessing it wouldn’t go over quite as well with black audiences and they would rightfully turn that shit off.
The difference is a lot of whites still want to watch football and be away from politics and bullshit for a couple hours of their life. As the players keep chipping away at it, and making it political, more and more people who disagree will turn off football.
If people wanted to watch politics they’d watch the freaking news.
