Imagine losing your job you've had since 1988 because of an equality tweet.
I'm as ignorant as that guy in this "woke" world we live in. I can't stand people being unfairly treated, but if I was in the public eye on Twitter I'd be fired in about a week because I didn't take into account the feelings of person a, b, c, d, e and so on, probably have to use the Greek alphabet as well.
People are too sensitive these days. All lives matter, whether black, white, yellow, brown, or green.
Social media has given douchecunts all over the world a voice, and the pussified minority have voiced major concerns, proclaiming to be offended and butthurt. What these mofos need is perspective, jobs, and to grow a pair.
Too many snowflakes, pussyfags, and SJWs in this world - they're all just ASWs or attention seeking whores.
Because apparently we can't say all lives matter these days as this is racist because we don't respect the black lives.
At least this is what Sony is trying to stubbornly imply in their social media crusade.
and also what @Cerval said at the bottom of the previous page. of course all lives matter, but in the current context, especially as a reply to "black lives matter", you're going to get absolutely murdered for saying it.
Some context to it all: The tonedeaf individual who got fired got baited by Cousins who played for Sacramento Kings and who saw this announcer as a bigot in his years there (they really heated history) . Former players big time Kings icons Matt Barnes Chris Webber, current+ former employees of their organisation and other journalists who know him pretty much all came out to speak out against him.
Also said announcer used to defend Donald Sterling, the most racist owner ever in sports (used to own La Clippers), and spoke out against and attacked Colin Kapernick for kneeling and protesting against racism/police brutality.
No should ever get fired or suspended for just saying all lives matter, but this dude seems to have an unfortunate streak of alienating big demographic of the Kings organisation (an NBA organisation that's heavily involved in minority community outreach programs).
And people are too sensitive in general these days, but atleast in the US, sadly most of the time the sentences all lives matter is brought up, it's not just by well intentioned solidarity motivated people, but actual bigoted skinhead right wingers types saying it to dismiss the issue of equality and discrimination. Why it triggers or makes some question the thought behind it when its said. It's all silly, but has a fairly heated current events history with it all.
