being nationalistic and materialistic is a product of being brainwashed for years under an absolute regime. And yet it's also a generalisation that doesn't apply to everyone, and not even the majority. People who their national poet drowned because of admiring the moon, don't have an inherent materialistic psyche.
We Americans love to romanticize about saving the oppressed people from their evil government. You take that view there and will get spit on in the streets. The Chinese people/netizens are just as outraged at Morey as the government. And he was a compete idiot to not see it coming.
I'm ok with this, but he should also tweet next that he loves Morey. It's ok to distribute the tasks here. Fertitta is the ass, Harden the apolitical athlete.
Did you not read, I said he had papers, he just broke bad, has had bad company. I told you to look in the rural areas not in the big cities. China is vast, anything can happen. There is a lot of reason why they did this, the population problem was a serious one. Resources were scarce. Sorry for those guys.
**** China for WHAT? We didn’t even start all these. What you guys want?! Are you guys the real dictators? Jesus.
you know what. To all you communist fks out there in houston. **** YOU. United we stand and i just want to watch my sports. We did fine without playing in china who gives two ****s. these greedy owners and gms i swear. And all you fools leaving cause you wanna back up communism gtfo and dont come to american fk heads. Communism is a **** hole.
Funny how everyone here thought Harden was hijacked and speak up for sth he doesn’t believe in. Either it’s ADIDAS, money or he wants to save Morey’s job. But no one here realizes that among every non-Chinese here including Morey, Tillman and Redittors, James might be the only one that visited China multiple times and know China not just from your UnbIaSed FreE world. You guys really act like the old stinky China back in the 60s. I love you guys. I hate you guys.

OH, you know the NBA sent a memo to errybody saying you can speak about anything but China. I'm waiting for Kerr, Pop and the countless other sports figures in the NBA who chime in on gun issues, LGBTQ+ issues, and the host of other things they care about to say something here. I won't hold my breath for them to say it. You don't have to agree with Morey or what he said, but when we cater to a fan base who lodges death threats after he said it we are doing it wrong. I don't care if their bots or not, that's not the side the progressive NBA should take. The NFL on the other hand, this is quite on point for them.
Warriors, Spurs and every other team aren't stupid enough to talk about China. They have been briefed. Morey should have known to stay away.
Morey actually helped the NBA players because Lebron, Steph Curry, Russell Westbrook said what Morey said, they would be crucified. Morey become the frontrunner of what to and not to say. The biggest payday for 1 day is in China for promotions. No players or anyone is not going to say no. 2020 Harden will be in China hopefully as a champion and MVP. Cha Ching.
