quick recap for people who don't know :
Hong Kong is currently fighting for their lives, and fighting against the oppression and censorship of the Chinese government. HK wants democracy and freedom. Many of them have died in protests on the streets these past few months.
So, Daryl Morey, an MIT-educated GM of the Houston Rockets, sent out a tweet saying "Fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong"....
since then, China has almost kicked the NBA out of China and is telling them to stfu.
President Trump criticized the NBA for kneeling to an anti-humanitarian Chinese government just to earn more money in the Chinese market.
Today, Lebron James came out in defense of China, and against freedom. To protect his $$$$$$$$$.
“I believe he was misinformed and not educated on the situation,” LeBron James said on the Morey tweet. LeBron added Morey’s tweet was dangerous. LeBron said he is uncertain about the future ramifications of the Morey tweet with the NBA and players.

Kap lost his job because he wasn't good at football. The timing of his little charade is particularly interesting and it was quite convenient in the end.
keep sucking China's dik LeBron, you know who butters your bread. He might need to be sent to a reeducation camp to learn a little bit more about his favorite governmentPosts are for fun, not to be taken seriously or as truth.

If you are following the whole thing and are "pro-Hong Kong", then it's not your fault, you're just paying too much attention to fake news. I'm not calling anybody stupid here, but the level of misinformation around the whole thing is absolutely mindblowing. I'm half expecting that next I'm gonna hear Saddam has weapons of mass destruction.
What is the actual argument for Hong Kong "liberation"? You all realize the entire thing was started by a Hong Konger committing a murder somewhere else then complaining that he was going to be extradited to face trial there instead of in Hong Kong, right? That the "revolutionaries" are just antifa-level domestic terrorists who wear masks and mindlessly attack random people and businesses because they can? That the entire "people's front" was started by State Department swamp creature NGOs who are doing the same thing they did in Ukraine and the middle east? You know, when Hilary gave a bunch of jihadis guns in order to install a more US-friendly regime, but actually just ended up creating ISIS?
The US just has zero moral high ground against China. They export useful things because we don't even make them any more, while we export feminism and other leftist degeneracy, and fund rebels in their country. How would you feel if they were doing the whole Soros thing? Backing the Greta Thunbergs and David Hoggs and the kind of antifa idiots who crash free speech events? I understand American exceptionalism, but in this case we are just completely in the wrong. They even have more freedom of speech at this point. In China you are not allowed to talk about the government, while here you are not allowed to talk about anything except how great communism is, how great gays/minorities/women are, and how much some people have allegedly suffered at the hands of others and deserve endless special treatment and free chit. They're basically more capitalistic than we are at this point too. China has every right to stop their people from rioting in the streets over dumb chit like this. And they aren't even rolling in the tanks yet, they're trying to solve it diplomatically. If I were Xi I would have had them in there a long time ago, before this got out of hand. But good on them for keeping their heads cool.
One thing I do agree on is the patheticness of American businesses who are cucking to the Chinese government by penalizing players who support Hong Kong. But they have to do what they have to do, it's just a good business decision. The problem is not that China is doing these things, it's that we are not. They are strong and we are weak. We play "fair" and they don't. And that's where the real anger is coming from.

The only real losers are the ones who give a ****
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."
