I'm loving some of these social justice shirts
The NBA is something that I can't help but love. I love basketball and even though there is this movement that I have to be honest and say that I agree with about boycotting the NBA into letting them know that we don't want to have them be a group of people what tell us what to do... I can't help myself because I love the sport and am so happy that it is happening on the level that they play on which is by FAR, the best in the world.

I am sick of superstars trying to tell us how to live the same as the next guy but I just really wanted the NBA to happen and even though most fans (according to viewership stats) are not watching, I still do.
But that doesn't mean that I can't have some fun with this. The social justice shirts they are wearing... apparently they had a few choices and some choices I think were better than others. I have looked at all the shirts and I have found my most favorite or I think it would be better to say that I have found the one that I hate the least.... and here it is.
Why do i love it? Because I would imagine that it means something along the lines of the same stuff tha the rest of the group is doing but it is unpronounceable for most of the world.
The NBA has shot themselves in the ass this year with this SJW stuff and I don't think the fans are going to forget for some time to come. In their arrogance, they decided to extend this message overseas as well and it was far less well-received there than it was in the United States.
The NBA of course will recover from this but once Covid is behind us I can all but guarantee that none of this will ever happen again.
We are in a unique period of time right now folks. One where the players got to make the rules. Did they make the correct rules? I would say definitely not - but money always wins in the end, and that is precisely what the NBA will follow next year.

I can't see many fans wearing these as even though it is your favorite team you are still sending a political message.
Put through for curation.
any idea what that translates into? or even what language it is?
It took me a while to figure it out but Gleichberechtigung means "Equality" in German. Wow, they make anything really long. Have you ever seen those videos about what different words sound like in different language? It's basically a long piss take on the Germans. It's funny.
I have seen some of those vids and they are great fun. Thanks for the translation.
