Asian people oppress black people by being too successful.
>>138665838
Another slight victory for the unhinged left.
Another slight pull back on that rubberband thats about to snap back bigly on the left.
>>138665838
>tfw rooftop Asians troll irl against black mobs
>>138665838
A few short years ago, this would have been a headline for The Onion. How far is this nonsense going to go?
>>138665838
asia btfo
>>138665838
Fucking bonkers. I would fight the left side by side with Asians.
>>138665838
quick rundown please? im averse to giving sites page views and reading for myself
>>138666961
ESPN pulled this Asian commentator from the broadcast of the Virginia football game because his name is Robert Lee.
I actually looked for other stories on this it's so fucking stupid. I can't believe it's real.
this is literally fake news. their source is a blog without any source of it's own.
>>138666597
It's this new timeline. Everyday there's another unbelievable story.
>>138667198
ESPN already confirmed
https://www.outkickthecoverage.com/msespn-pulls-asian-announcer-named-robert-lee-off-uva-game-avoid-offending-idiots/
>>138667198
I looked and it's real.
>>138665838
>people still don't fucking archive

Espn is owned by Disney

and that's the blog i was talking about. just because some random ass blog puts "ESPN CONFIRMS!!!" doesn't make it real. find me a real source? ESPN twitter? something?
He should sue. Taking away his work because a gooks last name is Lee is racist as fuck

Just when I thought they have reached peak retardation, they somehow find a way to take it even further.
>>138665838
Are they against asians bc of Virginia tech ?
Coincidences can be just as racist and hateful as facts. So glad companies like ESPN are courageous enough to stand up against such ignorance and bigotry.
>it's real
this is why I can't even get into fiction anymore. reality is so much more entertaining these days.
>>138667963
>facts can be racist
i haven't stopped deep gut wheeze laughing since i read the headline, oh fuck this is a big red pill if real
>>138668388
They're called #HateFacts you shitlord.
>>138668721
>facts can be hateful
>>138667090
>be asian
>try hard as you can to assimilate
>give your son a standard white first name because you really want him to feel like he's an american
>maintain your standard asian last name to keep some semblance of your culture
>your son does fine in school
>your son loves sports but cannot compete on any serious level
>your son decides that he can convert his love and knowledge of sports into a broadcasting career
>your son immediately achieves success and recognition in commentating for his college sports team
>future looks bright
>unfortunately previous assimilation techniques have rendered your son's name racist and subsequently triggering to the minority of leftists that have no interest in sports but have an intense interest in silencing anything with a modicum of racist tinge
>asian son is blacklisted from sports announcer pursuit
>asian son forced to return home without any career prospects because of half-assimilated name
this is america 2017. identity politics is in total collapse.
WE WUZ CHANGS

>identity politics is in total collapse.
I wish. shit's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better I think though.
>>138665838
>Robert Lee was pulled from ESPN because his name is like Robert E. Lee's
*check's date*
It's not April 1st...
*check's source*
Doesn't seem to be a satire website
*looks for other sources*
Oh for fuck's sake it's real....
CAN WE START DISAPPEARING COLLEGE STUDENTS AND "INTELLECTUALS" YET?

>asia btfo
He's American. Asian American men are the most oppressed group in the country.
>>138670615
>shit's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better I think though.
this is pretty bad if this story is true. asians are already starting to get woke about college admissions. they have always been loyal democrats but i feel like the younger generation will side with republicans. democrats try to box asians into the term "People of Color" so they can feel the oppressed nigger bux but asians will soon start to realize that the system fucks them more than it fucks white people.
>>138665838
deluded lefty news implying that if this man was white then pulling him would have been ok.
>>138665838
How is this even possible? Even the most blue pilled shitlibs I know laugh at stuff like this.
>>138673548
hmmmm
>>138673140
>he's asian so it's funny ha ha
>>138671998
Unironically true.
Thought it was hilarious how they made affirmative action work against asians
>>138671998
i mean it's because he's asian that espn thought they could get away with it so yea
>>138667589
How about a statement from ESPN themeselves?
<We collectively made the decision with Robert to switch games as the tragic events in Charlottesville were unfolding, simply because of the coincidence of his name. In that moment it felt right to all parties. It’s a shame that this is even a topic of conversation and we regret that who calls play by play for a football game has become an issue.
A guy from Fox Sports confirmed it too.
>>138665838
Mass hysteria...
LOL LOL LOL!!!!!! This is sad and funny in a weird kinda way
>>138665838
DIRTY YANKEES
>>138665838
what if he was a slave that took the last name "Lee"?
>>138672892
Calling Asians people of color is hilarious because referring to Asians as yellow is racist
>>138679955
WE WUZ GENERUR REE AN SHIIIEEET
>>138665838
I just follwed him on twitter @robertleepxp . frankly i'd follow him into war.
>>138679955
CHING CHANG CHONG
>>138671998
kys
>>138665838
And they say the left isn't violent. Literally the only logical reason ESPN would do this is an acknowledgment that some idiotic leftist would do something violent because of the guys name.
>>138665838
Did this dudes ancestors owned slaves?
>>138681983
Did he say anything ?
>>138665838
And yet this still stands. Hmm.
There should be people at the game holding up signs that say "Bring back Robert Lee ESPN."
>>138685518
Does anybody know anybody at UVA or the surrounding area?
