I said it was a song, I didn’t say it was just a song. Obviously it’s our national anthem and it means something. One of the things it represents is there freedom to protest. I know that’s what you were saying. And nobody is protesting the anthem. They just know that they will get attention for protesting during it. But it’s a very respectful protest. If they were making inflammatory gestures during would be one thing. Kneeling isn’t disrespect just because it’s custom to stand. They aren’t kneeling to mock the anthem or those who stand, they are kneeling to communicate that this great country has problems that need fixed.

But of course a concept that nuanced is fucking gibberish to warb. Maybe in his days off he’ll be able to consider this.
