Is there anything Kyrie could say to make Pinhead Silver fine or suspend him?

I think there is a fair discussion to be had about how awful Democrats and libtards are, and I think people would be much more willing to engage with you on it if there was even an iota of occasional acknowledgement that your "side" can be pretty despicable, too. That might not seem fair, and in the past I've said it really isn't far. But so be it. The difference being that Republican anti-Semites are rightfully mocked/voted out of office, while Democrat anti-Semites are rising stars given an outsized platform. They even give them cute nicknames! They’re what now?

Weird that neither Kim K nor any of his business partners were aware of his love of Hitler.

These are rally weak statements from the NBA and Nike. Even as someone who barely follows the NBA, I know Kyrie Irving is one of the league's top players. Call me cynical, but if this was some 10th man on an NBA team's bench posting this, he'd be suspended or cut from the team. No matter the issue, controversy or crime, talent trumps every other consideration for pro sports owners.

Kyrie was called a "spare part" on the Cavs championship team at the OWH. He's a lunatic, but definitely was more than a spare part on that team.

He hit arguably the biggest shot in Finals history to bury the best regular season team in history. Spare part my ass

Kyrie suspended at least five games essentially because he refuses to apologize.
At this point, what would an apology even do? He's obviously not sorry.

It does seem sort of pervasive in the community.

How did this happen?
And, why are all the efforts at “education” aimed at the individual people who pop off, and not the broader community?

I don’t remember if I read it here or elsewhere, but someone made the good point that Kyrie fancies himself an intellectual and a free thinker. But like pseudo-intellects from time immemorial, he doesn’t think he should have to defend his positions. Or he says he’s “just asking questions.”
