Here is a refresher from the opening post:
The correct context for the kneeling thing must include and address the fact that the situation is occurring at the workplace, and that the workers are in fact 100% free to find another place to work. It must also include and address the fact that it is not the government that is imposing the workplace conduct requirements that you are so against. If you must present the situation out of its correct context, then you are relying on deception in order to make your point. It won't work
The Truth Does Not Need To Be Supported With Censorship.
Getting a lefty to address the use of the correct context is like trying to shove a cat into a toilet. The unwillingness of lefties to discuss full and correct context shows that the only weapon they have in the discussion of kneelers is an inaccurate and alternative context.

Aside from the fact that job sources for professional football athletes are extremely limited for the level of talent employed by the NFL you are also disingenuously representing the workplace situation .
No employer, can or does, require jingoistic displays of patriotism with a financial fine for non-compliance IN THE WORK PLACE.
The NFL has no place in doing trying to do so either.
We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
Ergo, religion.
rac·ist
rāsəst/noun
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
If the answer is yes, you are a racist.
Nobody is "stopping the protests". The league says they'll fine any franchise whose players fail to stand respectfully during the National Anthem if they are on the field. No player is prevented from protesting, and no player is punished for kneeling.
Protest is only protected by the Constitution if the government is attempting to infringe a citizen's right of free speech/free assembly.

The players also have a collective bargaining clause in their contracts. A change of policy that came about after the contracts were signed by both parties, should be negotiated, not unilaterally dictated.
That clause was sidestepped when the league demanded the patriotism or financial fine ultimatum without consulting all the contracted players.
The players have legal footing to disregard the demand and not be fined.
This ain't over just because the orange clown agrees with the leagues leaders.
No, I don't decide it, brother, the players contract lawyers do.
