Thread: NBA HOFer Allen Iverson posts pic with Farrakhan then forced to apologize

We went from George Floyd, to Black Lives Matter, to Trans Lives Matter, to Straight Black Men oppress and kill Trans, to Black people are racist and oppress Ashkenazi Jews.

My post in the thread yesterday:

24 replies and not one person caught on to the fact that Iverson did not apologize. Much less was he "forced" to apologize.

The thread title is fake news and if I was a mod I'd ban OP for three days. The rest of you need to start looking at sources.

Iverson actually handled it damn well, condemning anti-semitism while defending his respect for Farrakhan and his intent to continue the relationship.

A lot of you could learn from him.

its a damn shame that they try to make us apologize for taking a pic with people like Farrakhan.
if thats the case, any cac that has taken a pic with Trump needs to apologize.

True but the point here is that it is bullshit to claim Iverson apologized and there's a thread full of people talking about him being a punk or letting himself be made an example of and HE DID NOT APOLOGIZE. The thread wasn't about people trying to make Iverson apologize, the title said "forced to apologize."

Shit is ridiculous

Damn, not A.I.

exposing all the pawns still dependent on the Khazar.

If you keep showing the enemy that you have a price, you'll never be more than just property.

Worth millions and still subjective to someones elses power. What a fucking waste of wealth.

no suprise here.. this brother has made a lot of white males rich in the sports world so they own him. he is not his own man so he has no choice but to be a slave and apologize to your master

these niggas bitches

It's not an apology and it's not a denunciation of him either ala Barack Obama. The end.

Basically it's a "we took pics together, I like what how he reps for Black people, but I dont agree with everything he says. I love everyone"

It may not be an "apology " it damn sure isnt an endorsement.
The fact he even had to explain the photo is troublesome in itself.

Yep.

Not "may not." Clearly isn't.

it damn sure isnt an endorsement.

"Does not endorse" or "explains the photo" are separate discussions. But they weren't chosen because they are not nearly as click-baity.

damn, you are hell bent on having that thread removed. I agree, he did not apologize, it's more like an explanation, which I think was unnecessary .

@BGOL Mark Zuckerburg makes it difficult. He has enough moderators to have higher standards, but instead lets the fake news and distortions run rampant.

Wouldn’t call it an apology but it can be taken as one because he is explaining himself. He did well with the statement tho, unfortunately you have to do this kind of thing.

I get it no one is above criticism. However, the larger problem is it seems “some” groups are untouchable to critiques.

Yeah if you went in that thread and didn't read AI statement and just read the comments then you would think he apologized. I agree with his statement, I don't agree with everything the Minister says but I do respect every thing he has done for our people.
