  Wow that is worse than I expected. Why politicize sports, a respite from the rest of our lives? And the slogans are often dangerous - for example “group economics” is effectively calling for racial and political Balkanization via our economy (boycotting taken much further): https://atlantablackstar.com/2015/09/22/group-economics-key-destiny-black-people/ https://atlantablackstar.com/2015/09/22/group-economics-key-.... When we all self organize to practice “group economics” based on our tribe, what is the point of a union? It seems like we would be a nation in name only, and at best, we would practice a tyranny of the majority.
