Grr.... it hasn’t even been half an hour and I can’t edit my post to correct my typo.

“This is not a presidency” Trump declares while sitting in the Ocal Office.

Oh dude, there is such a big difference between his mother approving the publication of a picture of him in his coffin and the artist deciding to make this painting.

Do you mean profit by it in the sense of achieving some measure of fame or success from it? Or do you mean monetary profit? In that case, the artist has stated that she will never sell the work.

They can’t “take the painting down” because is was never even part of the exhibit in the first place.

When did the party of FDR become the party of Josef Stalin? I will vote Democrat till the day I die, but this HYPER-LEFTIST shit gotta go

That is the single dumbest thing you’ve written on this article.

It actually did happen at CBC. Remember Gomeshi? I suppose the feather in canada’s cap was that he knew it would be damaging to his career so he tried to get out in front of it by saying ‘oh no, I’m just into BDSM but am being blackmailed’ and never thought all three of his victims would come forward in rapid…

It’s Kara Walker, and she’s not the only person on the list. Dread Scott, Barbara Takenaga, and Roberto Juarez are also there. There might be others, but I’m not in the mood to google 80 artists to find their pictures online.

Protest away. Just know that the art still gets to be shown.

That’s what they always say, and it’s never true.

Kaepernick had $0 guaranteed money on the contract and 9ers GM said he was going to release him. That opting out excuse is bullshit

Of course there’s a whiny white asshole wanting to bring up Tebow, who proved himself sub-average repeatedly, was given repeated chances with multiple teams, and is now being given an undeserved chance in yet another major sport.

The major point being that Kaepernick obviously can win games and make money for the owners (the merch bump alone!), and they still won’t sign him, because they actually care more about silencing his black voice than about winning games or making money.

My bad - did not mean to duck your Castro question. I’m mixed on his results post revolution. I agree that there should have been a revolution and that he was the person to lead it. Like many revolutions, he wasn’t the person to follow-through on the promises - best player doesn’t make the best coach, Johnson, Magic,…

I wouldn’t say I love any world leader. I would say - and I think I am much older than you - that Castro isn’t universally hated by all communities in the americas - there was a reason many revolutionaries went to him in the 50's, 60's, 70's - including black americans who were literally running for their lives from…

You remember/have read up on the 1968 Mexico City Olympics and the protest there by 2 black athletes and 1 white who joined in solidarity?

Heads up, racist scumbag Loco Jones is in your thread.

There is definitely a parallel there that has been pointed out before. But it goes largely ignored sadly because of the celebrity of a lot of these men, and the money. They money definitely blinds them. Sometimes its almost a IDGAF if they use me as long as they pay me my millions attitude.

They are only happy with white players who express support for maga, like tom brady and his coach. Let a black man protest the killing of black bodies and all of a sudden.. we need our fans approval.
