I'm not as free as y'all Americans (from Europe): Context for the guy on the left?
Kicker for the US football team Chiefs based in Kansas City gave a commencement speech where he laid out a bunch of misogynistic and homophobic bullshit including the equivalent of "women belong in the kitchen" and is getting defended by conservatives as speaking to family values or whatever they call that bullshit now.
Sounds like you know about the guy on the right already, but for anyone else that might not know he was simply kneeling to bring attention to racism and was vilified by those same conservatives.
A white man was applauded while a black man was attacked.
Does that cover it?
While race certainly played a part with the reaction to Kaepernick, that doesn't mean this guy got a free pass for being white. Conservatives would have defended someone of any race who spouted misogynist word vomit.
I mean, conservatives defend the murderer Kyle Rittenhouse.
They defend him because they like the idea of shooting liberal protesters in the street. "Murderer" is not a mark of shame to them.
I do love how they defend him in part by saying he killed a convicted sex offender as if he could have possibly known that and as if that were his (or anyone's) job to do.
That's because for Conservatives you're allowed to take lives to protect property. You are not allowed to damage property to protect lives.
Really shows where their values are.
Good point.
Almost makes you associate racism and misogyny with the conservatism ideology….. almost. I’m sure a few more instances like this will solidify it for more people? Maybe?
They can't say Christian values anymore, so they say family values. Anytime you hear family values, they mean Christian values.
Family values, common sense, freedom caucus, and any other thing that sounds like it should be positive but is run by conservatives is the opposite of whatever the name is.
Don't forget the other crazy part. His own mother is a medical physicist that is the complete opposite of his definition of what he believes women should be. I was going to say those head injuries are true, then I realized he is only a kicker...
A kicker in American Football, who recently gave a speech at a Catholic College and said women will find more joy and fulfillment from being a stay at home mom than in a career.
He also said a bunch of other terrible stuff about women in the speech too, but yeah, that is the part that made the headlines.
Who only got where he was because of his mother's physics career.
