That would've required you to have posted it with the intention of it being funny. Instead, you posted it here looking to make a political point b/c you have a track record of coming into this forum looking to stir up the forum before you run off.
Attacking someone? You mean pointing out the racism in it by assuming Crystal Dunn represented all black people's opinions b/c she's not kneeling next to Megan & then learning the actual reason?
Again, this forum isn't for you if you're not interested in discussion seeing as you didn't post your "meme" in the right thread.

By conveying a situation about her & her black teammate to make her look "idiotic" except her black teammate supported her.
It's not a meme. It's a picture trying to make a political point; it's misleading & deserves to be called out.
We have a meme thread if you're looking to post something funny.
The Political Satire/Meme Thread
Let's argue about/with some political cartoons. Intellectual discussion is frowned upon in the funny picture thread.

You posted it here, it's going to be open to discussion.
And there's the typical conservative mindset at work.
Quote black people when convenient, but deny protesting racial injustice that supports black people as a legitimate reason.

You don't have to respect the national anthem in America, nor do you need to respect the flag, politicians, or anything related to the government and the country. It's kind of a cornerstone of our rights.
But my brother in Christ, Megan Rapinoe doesn't even play professional soccer anymore and she kneeled for the anthem in 2016. I'm at a loss as to why you're even talking about it in 2023.

Bold claim that's doubtlessly slanted by ideology and affected by mental defect innate to said ideology.

The fun part about this is that your own choice of image kinda ***** on that idea.
Remember, your take was (summarisable as) "lol stupid white chick doing a racism protest while black chick - who this supposed racism supposedly affects - doesn't, I am very smart", while the actual story was "white chick does a racism protest while black chick doesn't because white chick can and black chick is literally too afraid of the consequences because of the racism white chick is protesting".
With that in mind, the picture is literally an illustration of systemic racism: black people fear consequences of protesting it while white people who do have no such fear but get attacked by internet trolls anyway.
If you don't believe systemic racism exists, do you believe that black people, generally, face no more discrimination from those in authority (the "system" of "systemic") than white people do, in the USA, today?
