It made international news

Yabusele, who plays for the Chinese Basketball Association's (CBA) Nanjing Monkey Kings, was photographed bowing his head as his teammates appear to be looking up as the anthem was playing, in a screenshot posted by the Global Times, a Chinese state-run tabloid.



I wonder if this was a confusion of customs of another country

They don't mess around over there when it comes to loyalty to country - Unlike the U.S. , where we are too busy apologizing for creating and building the greatest country in the history of mankind.

I'm all set with Nationalism in the U.S.

Absolutely stupid that Yab would be fined for this, but nothing surprises me anymore. I guess he will have to pretend respect a flag he cares nothing about in the future.

As a patriot who definitely loves and most importantly understands America I'm always saying we need to be more like Communist China when it comes to punishing free expression.

Pretty sure in almost every instance of American employment where this is a concern it's been explicitly laid out what the company deems acceptable.
