    Major League Baseball All Star game

    MLB is going to move the All Star game out of Georgia because of the "restrictive" voting bill passed.

    Cool. Now Georgia can withdraw all the tax and other benefits they have been giving the Atlanta Braves. Georgia has no need for Major League Baseball.

    Georgia can also withdraw all the tax and other benefits have have been giving to Coca-cola, Delta Airlines, American Airlines, and any other Corporation that can't mind it's own business and kiss buttocks of the woke.

    For that matter, I'm for boycotting all those Corps who want to be woke. I don't need any of them.

    The worker bees can always move.

    This is the thing that conservatives have been saying about the cancellation of the all star game. The biggest losers will be the average Joes and Janes who make a living at the ball park.

    Sure won't hurt the players, or the owners. I won't watch it if they move. But then, I am about done watching the Rangers as well. They seem to have the same problem this year they have every year... No pitching.

    MLB has turned the All-Star event into a political joke. They strong armed Cleveland into dumping Chief Wahoo by threatening to move the 2019 All Star event. Cleveland granted them the power by bowing to their political demands.

    Such bull####!

    The MLB Commissioner is a member of Augusta National Golf Club in none other than the State of Georgia.

    Senator Rubio sent a letter to the pretend woke commissioner and asked if he was going to give up his membership.

    Dear Commissioner Manfred:

    I write to ask you whether you intend to maintain your membership at Augusta National Golf Club. As you are well aware, the exclusive members-only club is located in the State of Georgia.

    Last week, you “decided that the best way to demonstrate our values as a sport is by relocating this year’s All-Star Game” from Atlanta because of Georgia’s revised election law. It is a decision that will have a bigger impact on countless small and minority owned businesses in and around Atlanta, than the new election law ever will. And one that reeks of hypocrisy.

    Will Major League Baseball now end its engagement with nations that do not hold elections at all like China and Cuba? Will you end your lucrative financial relationship with Tencent, a company with deep ties to the Communist Party and actively helps the Chinese Government hunt down and silence political dissidents?

    Since Major League Baseball now appears eager to use its “platform” to demonstrate “unwavering support” for fundamental human rights, will you cease your relationship with the Chinese Government, which at this very moment is committing genocide against the Uyghurs Muslims in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR)?

    I am, of course, under no expectation any of this will happen. Taking the All-Star game out of Georgia is an easy way to signal virtues without significant financial fallout. But speaking out against the Chinese Communist Party would involve a significant loss of revenue and being closed out of a lucrative market.

    In the end, as a citizen of a free nation you, and Major League Baseball, have the right to speak out against laws in the U.S. you disagree with, even if it is on the basis of false information. What would be truly bold, however, is if you would speak out on behalf of the voiceless who face arbitrary imprisonment, forced sterilization, coerced abortions, rape, and other horrific acts at the hands of one of your business partners. I am under no illusion that Major League Baseball will sacrifice business revenue on behalf of its alleged corporate values.

    Similarly, I am under no illusion you intend to resign as a member from Augusta National Golf Club. To do so would require a personal sacrifice, as opposed to the woke corporate virtue signaling of moving the All Star Game from Atlanta.

    Sincerely,

  16. Thanks sojourner truth, Night Owl thanked this post
