Morons Will be Morons: Nike "Boycott" [Dabbing with a Mage episode 164]

in #news6 years ago

The major shoe brand, Nike, recently made a move which sparked fires all across the nation in what seems to be one of the most stupid boycotts yet. I am unclear to the whole situation, but it would appear all of this anger stems from racism. Coming unglued, previous Nike fans took the their cameras and burnt down their Nike gear, some even purchased Nike items to join in. Join me in today's episode as I cover some of the more ridiculous points within this event, and some ideas on how to successfully boycott a company.

Yeah it’s amazing how stupid people are. I could go in deep about why the players are kneeling, which has nothing to do for hating America, but more for protesting the injustice. Which the NFL barely started to do national anthems, because the us government pays them to do it!! I say boycott the NFL. The way the treat the brain injuries is downright dispicable. And to boycott Nike? How about people boycott them for their damn sweatshops they run?

Oh yes, there are many great reasons that the players are kneeling - the negative reactions to them is completely uncalled for and unjust. I completely agree with you about boycotting the NFL, for maaaaaany reasons, haha. Yeah, Nike has quite a few unethical business practices themselves. I'm wondering if they made this move under the premise that it will cause mayhem? Haha.

Thanks for your comment, @jonyoudyer!

Yeah man Football is such a great sport. But the NFL, and NCAA are really corrupt institutions. Ive grown to have such negative attitude towards them. There are others, but i fell just the NFL and NCAA are on topic of your post.
