Why is Jaylen "proud" of "his community" showing support for Kyrie, anyway?
What is there to be proud of? That an anti-Semite forcibly apologized after initially saying he wouldn't?
Brown said he simply wanted to promote "Brown and Black people standing together on our issues rather than seeing images of violence in our media, music and movies that we don't entirely promote or profit from."
He's a faux intellectual who just regurgitates stuff that makes no sense in context. The "issue" for brown and black people is... Kyrie's anti-Semitism? And that's related to images of violence, how? And, if the black and brown people were promoting or profiting from the violence (which they do), does that make it better? And hey, it's left unsaid, but we all know who controls the media and the music/movie industries, right? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
^ Jaylen, if he had a degree and didn't hate white people.
I'm not going to completely defend Jaylen, because I disagree with him. That said, I do think it's possible for Jaylen to think the following without being anti-Semitic:
1) Kyrie was unfairly suspended for his speech
2) Kyrie was suspended more harshly because he is Black
3) Kyrie should be supported in his return because of 1 & 2
You can think those things without being anti-Semitic. I think Jaylen is wrong about #1, and it seems the people supporting Kyrie in #3 are on the anti-Semitic spectrum, so that's a problem. I do think there's room for debate about #2, even if I agreed with the suspension.
That said, you can also take the stance that Jaylen took and be an anti-Semite. In other words, I think the jury is out on that for Jaylen, but he's losing the benefit of the doubt quickly.
