How is it that masks are a slight against ones freedom but forcing athletes to stand for the national anthem isn't?

Athletes are free to seek another line of employment if they don't like the policies of their employer. A business is a dictatorship, not a democracy and they would never make money if they were a democracy.

I don't know...because, like the Military, as long as they are in those uniforms they represent the Entity that owns the Team, I reckon.... I stopped watching sports when they decided we had 2 national anthems so I really don't give a F$#@ what those over paid Entitled and Divisive @sshats do.
But my head IS still trying to sort out why after I register on line for my Covid Vaccine, I have to show proof of ID that is then bounced off that list of Registered People to receive it....
BUT Voter ID laws to ensure voter eligibility are racist because some people, supposedly, can't get ID's...how are people going to get the Vaccine with no ID???

I would never force anyone to stand for the national anthem. I just stopped watching professional sports a few years ago. I honestly don't care if they take a knee.

Masks are useless unless you're robbing a bank. Standing for the anthem is a sign of respect for those who have fought to defend what it stands for. I DON'T mean what a bunch of deranged morons and overpaid, underworked "athletes" babble about it meaning.
