Do white people have an extra lobe in their brain that allows them to not process information correctly? Maybe something is missing.
I believe the science community needs to look into this more in-depth. No matter how many times they are told "it's no disrespect to the flag or armed forces", they still see this as being selfish and dismiss what the gesture is actually bringing awareness to.

The so-called black boycott of the NFL will be a bust judging by the IC.

They just want us to handle injustice like Jackie Robinson did, just take the abuse and don't say nothing.
Nigga how dare you, read your GODDAMN history
this dude founded one of the first Black Owned Banks in Harlem and literally refused to sit at the back of the bus......
Jackie agreed to hold his tongue for his first 2 seasons and put up with the racist bullshit before going full Field Nigga on these cacs while having his GOAT MVP season and never holding his tongue again. I thought everybody knew this fucking story smh
"The Hall of Famer wrote in his 1972 autobiography “Never Had It Made” that he had “believed in payback, retaliation” from the time he was 8 years old and a neighborhood girl called him the vilest of racial epithets. “Jackie had a genius for getting into extra-curricular scrapes,” wrote sports columnist Will Connolly, and he was quick to speak out against injustice. While in the Army in 1944, the defiant Robinson had been arrested for insubordination after refusing to sit in the back of a military bus as ordered by the driver. He was temperamental, too quick-tempered some teammates feared. He talked back to white officials, struck back against white players who levied hard blows. Rickey had heard the reports that Robinson was a “racial agitator” but believed he would have been considered “a competitor” had his skin tone been paler.
Robinson faced perhaps his greatest test a week after his debut when the Philadelphia Phillies, led by their manager Ben Chapman, sprayed the field with racial taunts and calls for him to “go back to the cotton fields.” Robinson daydreamed “for one wild and rage-crazed minute” about “what a glorious, cleansing thing it would be to let go. To hell with the image of the patient black freak I was supposed to create. I could throw down my bat, stride over to the Phillies dugout, grab one of those white sons of bitches and smash his teeth in with my despised black fist.” Knowing that he carried the prospects of an entire race, though, Robinson endured it all without retaliating, and it ate him alive. He suffered from stomach pains. His hair turned gray prematurely.
Before the start of Robinson’s third season in 1949, Rickey called his new star into his office and issued what he called “an emancipation proclamation.” Rickey told a relieved Robinson he no longer needed to restrain himself. “You can be yourself now,” he said.
With his cheek no longer turned, Robinson started to challenge other players and argue with umpires. Some fans and sportswriters began to turn on the Dodgers star as a result. The Sporting News called him “a chronic griper” and took him to task for “umpire-baiting.” No longer the “martyred hero,” he was labeled a “troublemaker,” “uppity” and a “rabble-rouser.”
What he really was, however, was the true Jackie Robinson, someone who would speak out, someone who would fight back. “If I had a room jammed with trophies, awards and citations, and a child of mine came into that room and asked what I had done in defense of black people and decent whites fighting for freedom, and I had to tell that child that I had kept quiet, that I had been timid, I would have to mark myself a total failure at the whole business of living,” Robinson wrote."

Here's his letters to the White House telling President Eisenhower that he would rather have nothing than be insulted by calls for patience and weak-ass Civil Rights legislation:

You are one the most ignorant and dumbest posters on the IC, if not the dumbest.

That's called staying on code. They know that Kaepernick isn't really disrespecting the flag or disrespecting the armed forces but since Kaepernick is protesting against white supremacy and injustice against black people this is their way of arguing against him without blatantly coming off as racist. But they end up exposing themselves anyway.

My statement was mostly in jest but I can agree with this
but I also call those people dumb as fuck. I've never seen a more ignorant group of people honestly. White people have been historically dumb as fuck.
I'm not trying to absolve them for their racist and destructive behavior but that doesn't make them not dumb as hell.
