Espn liberal agenda

Then say "Trump's rhetoric and agenda feels threatening to minorities' interests, some people don't feel that way because they aren't a minority".

Calling the President a white supremacist is a tad extreme.

 

If you're saying I am more articulate than espn's current lineup, thanks.

 

Absolutely.

 

This was on her personal Twitter account, which to me is a little different, but I agree with you

 

when she generalizes a group of people based on their race, like saying everyone around Trump is a white supremacist, how is it not racist. She assumes and hates.

 

Low bar, but you're welcome

 

Not really sure I can buy this.

I work in marketing. Does that mean I can't talk about politics on social media?

I've never driven a race car. Does that mean I can't discuss if Danica Patrick is good or not?

I'm not a vet. Does this mean I can't post pictures of my dog on Instagram?

Not attacking you here, I'm just confused by why somebody should only be allowed to talked about subjects related to their given profession.

 

I assumed this was during some show. If it is on their private account, then that is what it is. However, in modern media, it is impossible to have a private life

 

You aren't a public figure. Hill is.

It's part of the job. You agree to it when you get your face plastered all over a television screen. She doesn't have a "private twitter"

 

True, but I don't think that should preclude you from having an opinion (as misguided as it may or may not be).

 

So as soon as you become a public figure, you can't have an opinion on anything or be be qualified to speak on anytning other than the subject that made you a public figure?

 

they should just let them have free reign (within reason) and treat them all the same, imo

 

I don't care that she said it per se. Agree or not, she can say and believe what she wants.

But if scott van pelt (and I have zero idea of his political ideologies) had said Obama was a Isis loving Muslim that was only elected because he was black, he would have been suspended, if not fired, and everyone knows it.

I just don't agree with the double standard.*

*-of course this espn and given the stories we've heard from there over the years maybe hill told skipper shed give him a bj under his desk if he'd just pretend it never happened

 

Racism requires an attitude of superiority or inferiority. It goes beyond generalizations.

 

Not anymore.

How many people get fired for voicing their opinion now?

 

Less than 0.1%?

 

Whatever that number is, you can apparently subtract 1 from it.

And I'm not saying one shouldn't have to deal with the repercussions that come from their employer or public for what they say.

I'm saying I don't buy somebody can't or shouldn't talk about X because they do Y for a living.

 

I don't think anybody is particularly upset because she discussed politics. Obviously some losers will always throw out "stick to sports", but this isn't the same.

 

Lots of people are upset.

 

But not just because she discussed politics.
