As I said earlier, I am critical of identity politics and other adjacent schools of thought. You built a straw man of me defending it, but could not substantiate it. Your argument being bad does not require CRT being good.

Neoliberal wokesterism is just an expression of the petty bourgeois class consciousness of its adherents.
It's basically the opposite of any legitimate black leftist tendency.Reed is scathingly brilliant.

No, I’m appealing directly coaches, so this is a straw man. On your view, there should be a significantly overpaid surplus. Second, the pool of applications isn’t the general population. The pool of applicants comes skews toward athletes, who you repeatedly remind me, to your own detriment, are disproportionately black.
And it’s on this point that I’m shocked you’re making such a rudimentary oversight. Black NFL players are a prime example intro teachers use. It’s a lower level position. The average person won’t see game time. They’ll be tossed aside in a good year or two bad that’s it. They are ordered around by disproportionately white coaches, but more importantly, overwhelmingly white higher corporate structure (you do realize coaches are not at the top of the hierarchy, right?).
If you are only focus on one level, and a relatively low tier 1 at that, you are simply not engaging the sociological perspective on anti-racism. Maybe you have a legitimate complaint for another issue, but it doesn’t substantiate the premise of your argument--thus it remains unsound.
This is why from the beginning I have asked you address hierarchy, and likely why you are avoiding going any higher than coaches.
That black NFL players are paid higher than the US public isn’t remotely relevant. We’re talking about matters internal to the NFL! Or does Roger Goodell have a joint appointment with the Fed?
I guess it doesn’t matter though. It’s clear you don’t believe your own argument is valid. I’d tell you to do intro to logic like you did to me, but you let me know that personal remarks like yours indicating losing ;-).This person apparently doesn't realize that the MINIMUM wage for an NFL player is ~$500k. Two years and tossed aside--which still usually means practice squad which makes more money that we do--and they still have earned more than we do in 10 years. Dolt.

Words from a Zen master:
https://www.mediaite.com/sports/11-time-nba-champion-coach-phil-jackson-says-he-doesnt-watch-basketball-anymore-because-its-too-political-they-were-trying-to-bring-a-certain-audience/The famed coach — who won six NBA championships with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s, and five more with Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant, and the Los Angeles Lakers in the early 2000s — cited the NBA’s bubble during the Covid lockdown in 2020 as the point when he became disenchanted with the league. Instead of having their names on the back of their jerseys, players wore social justice messages such as “justice” and “equal opportunity.” Jackson mocked such gestures for “catering” to a “certain audience.
“They had things on their back like ‘Justice’ and a funny thing happened,” Jackson said. “Like ‘Justice went to the basket and Equal Opportunity knocked him down’… Some of my grandkids thought it was pretty funny to play up those names. I couldn’t watch that.”
The coach added,”They even had slogans on the floor, on the baseline. It was catering. It was trying to cater to an audience, or trying to bring a certain audience into play. And they didn’t know it was turning other people off.

Think about how negatively obsessed you must be to even post this, btw. It's like people who spend all day posting on twitter about how they obsessively hate Elon (somehow not understanding that their traffic is economically driving his enterprise). It would be like going to the same bar every night and complaining about the service... while still spending money. That would show actual obsession. The person who shows up to enjoy a drink could not be said to be "obsessed" in the same way.
