Read my comment above. There's no doubt Kaepernick has been influential in social issues that led up to the George Floyd riots. We were all outraged by it. Yet, I wonder whether the promotion of it by the media was part of a PsyOp prepping the public for such a triggering incident as the George Floyd event? Has anyone ever considered this?
Colin Kaepernick sacrificed his entire NFL career for this career-destroying ideology. Why? How stupid can one be, especially when certainly having publicists and advisors stating otherwise? There must be a motive here, especially after it was evident that the San Francisco 49ers benched Kaepernick for another quarterback. Publicity never grows by a media that's absolutely controlled. Information is underwritten and groomed for a desired end result.
Did outside moneyed influences give Kaepernick a very public forum? I wonder? How does Kaepernick pay the bills?
“part of a PsyOp prepping the public for such a triggering incident as the George Floyd event? Has anyone ever considered this?”
Of course. It’s why the cabal shoehorned a fentanyl overdose into a pre-decided police-brutality narrative.
“Colin Kaepernick sacrificed his entire NFL career for this career-destroying ideology. Why? ”
He didn’t. He was already on the bench and on his way out of the league.
“How does Kaepernick pay the bills?”
His Nike money increased after his football career. His reps got a cut too. The kneel down stunt was probably their idea.
Are you being facetious here? Basis for your assertion is what? Inquiring minds would like to know.
I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, but Kaepernick was certainly not on his way out of the league until he started doing the kneel down antics.
At first this was perhaps a valid income, but it definitely soon lost its value is now a liability. The number of people repulsed as a result of his antics soon outnumbered favoring it.
Like most dual threat QBs, it took a couple seasons for injuries and defensive coordinators to catch up. Look at the 2022 seasons of Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray. Krappernick had krappy throwing mechanics and his inaccuracy made him a bad fit for NFL passing offenses..
In 2016,
So Krappy already got benched in 2015 and the beginning of 2016. His reps knew his earnings and marketability were on the downswing so they thought of a non-football way to make some money off him. It was later on in 2016 that he started doing the kneel down during the anthem. The stunt got him a bunch of money from Nike, and his reps got their portion of that endorsement money.
“At first this was perhaps a valid income, but it definitely soon lost its value is now a liability.”
Money already in the bank isn’t a liability. That they were able to get any money from Nike for a washed-up player was a great scam for them.
For reference, Shanahan’s 2016 Falcons offense was a passing attack that once had a 25 point lead in the Super Bowl. Veteran passing QB Matt Ryan won the 2016 NFL MVP.
In 2017 Krappy was out of the league. He cooked up the story that he was politically blackballed, because it helped the Nike campaign of “Stand for something even if it costs you everything.” The truth is that if he was a good enough player, his politics and stunts wouldn’t have mattered. In 2017 the kneel-down trend became widespread among NFL players and they weren’t blackballed for it. Because they could still play.
Even in 2023 Krappy whined about and sold out his adoptive parents in order to generate buzz for his graphic novel he’s trying to sell. He’s a grifter.
Good analysis. You said, "Money already in the bank isn’t a liability." You unwittingly stated an oxymoron. Idle money looses value even with the paltry interest rate of a bank due to inflation. If Kaepernick has a good financial manager then perhaps it favors what you said. However, the flow of Nike money is not there as it was initially. That's like being laid off at work. It wouldn't surprise me if there are political NGOs paying him a retainer for future use. Who knows... He received his Andy Warhol 15 minutes of fame. Now he's a has been like David Hogg.
