It seems that much of the US felt that way about Kaepernick.
- imgabe 4y agoYes, you might get some criticism for it, just like Haidt is. A private organization like the NFL or the SPSS might not let you be a member if you don’t follow their rules. That’s within the bounds of free speech. We only have freedoms by continually asserting them and sometimes sacrificing some social capital to use them.
- kenjackson 4y agoI get that. I was just trying to understand from the original person I was responding to if they found the National Anthem “requirements” as repulsive.
- oceanplexian 4y agoYes and no, a private organization can’t deny someone membership if a prospective member refused to make an oath to the effect of “I swear to discriminate against Asians”. So their freedom of speech ends where it infringes on the civil rights of others. Arguably, some DEI statements could come close to crossing that line.
