Pinned tweet from May 29, not his latest, just for clarification.
Also, not sure what this has to do with our players and staff joining a peaceful demonstration.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
The only thing that can derail another Bison NC is Cancel Culture. Any of our guys express pro-police, or pro-respect the flag and anthem sentiments...or, God forbid, "like" a non-Liberal-approved post on social media...they will be attacked..their season and life ruined. Brees was right at first....stand and respect the flag and anthem...then he caved like a wuss due to Liberal Cancel Culture.

Also, can you explain for me the difference between Liberal Cancel Culture and what happened with say, Kaepernick or The Dixie Chicks?

Oh wow, that's profound...that it's not just my flag. Thing is, I love it like it's just mine...as if all the great things it stands for and all the patriots who fought for it are now looking just to me...little 'ol me...to defend it...and condemn anyone who doesn't honor it when it is displayed. Kneeling during the anthem to protest this or that in America...when instead you should be standing and looking at YOUR flag with hand on heart...I'll condemn that nonsense with God on my side, thank you very much. I wish every American had the decency to say that is MY flag. For some reason, my claim on the flag troubled you...strange.
Know whose flag it is not? It's not Colin Kaepernick's flag...he told us that when he said, "I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color." That's where this athlete-kneeling crap began. Now Brees bows down to Liberal Cancel Culture and says that kneeling during the anthem is "not about the flag?" He's delusional...It has ALWAYS been about disrespecting the flag.
Because I think their "protest" during the National Anthem is a joke. I'm pissed that abortion is legal in America. Yet see, I don't express that pissed off position during the American National Anthem. I'm free to go protest at an abortion "clinic," you know...the appropriate venue for that. Here's another example of my using quotes...the JMU football "dynasty."
Brees wasn't criticized for why he stands, he was criticized for not listening to why others kneel and instead ascribing his own explanation of their motivations. I respect why he stands and the meaning he takes from the anthem, I did not respect him trying to take away the meaning from others of why they kneel.
Oh, do Conservatives voice their disgust by not buying Dixie Chicks CDs, or by vowing to never watch an NFL game as long as Kaepernick's followers disrespect the American flag? Of course they do. Kaepernick wasn't left off NFL rosters because of that, though he'd like to think so. He was a marginal guarterback. If you think that what happened in 200 flippin' 3 with the Dixie Chicks and what is a legitimate disgust with Kaepernick's pissing on the flag ...if that equates with the modern Liberal Cancel Culture...well, we live in two different worlds. At least the Dixie Chicks had the balls to stand by their position, I'll say that.
Drew Brees? Nope.
