    people are idiots if they think nike didn't do a ton of research on this, trump supporters and fox viewers don't buy sneakers the hard right is dying off, this is why republicans are resorting to gerrymandering and voter suppression,this is the real reason behind the migrant scare, they think they vote democrat. here is the scary thing. if they get too scared of the loss of power. they will retain or power they will do so by force. you may see things quickly towards facshism. people are fed to the teeth with Trumps bullshit, tweets and divisive nature. the books op -ed. Florence could be the deciding factor in the midterms.

    Now see, this is my thing. Is it cool that CK is the new face of nike? Yes.

    Does this mean Nike is suddenly "woke?"

    fUCK no.

    You can bet your bottom dollar that he was chosen by EXTENSIVE analytics.

    If they could sell more sneakers with a fucking David Duke ad campaign, I think they would do it.

    This is 100% about how many sneakers they can sell.

    Yup. Now, if a byproduct of this is that more people feel listened to, or understood, and the movement gains more traction, then that's freaking awesome.

    But let's not pretend that those are the reasons Nike did it.

    I saw your argument above being called cynical. I feel a little bit cynical here myself, but I'm just calling it like I see it.
