I can’t boycott no harder, we haven’t purchased a name brand in weeks!
Oh look, yet another example of why we should tax wealth and not work.
Republican are the ones that burned Nikes for sponsoring Colin Kaepernick…
Imagine how many copies this sold
Like, four?
They’re not well known for buying books.
Reading them, no. But fuckers love buying them and handing them out. Nothing a conservative uncle loves more than sliding a copy of Atlas Shrugged across the table and saying “Read this if you want to learn about Real Communism, kid”.
And with that, I make like John Galt and never see that uncle again.

Ew what is that font? Gross.
🤮
Yep, they were the wokiest of the woke before woke was woke.
Nike also did a lot of donations and promotion of the DNC before now so it is somewhat of a surprising flip. Maybe Phil Knight is acting alone in this endeavor, counter to the company itself?

I know you said pro wings what are there any other brands you recommend? Is adidas any better? Been putting off buying new sneakers since Isreals genocide because every brand I looked at seemed to have some sort of ties.
How has that worked out, watching Nike grow and prosper despite everything shitty they do?
Are you simping for a company?
Like a pick-me girl, except putting humanity down for the attention of companies.
Here’s the thing.
Nike might continue to commit attrocious shit, but you know what?
it ain’t his fault
Is it yours? Can we partly blame you? That’s unfortunate.
I don’t think Nike much cares whose fault it is since they remain unaccountable.
I don’t care what Nike thinks. It’s your concience. Are you going to contribute to their efforts and enable them or aren’t you?
You mean like 99% of people?
Just like your downvote ratio.
My down vote is 99% of people? Do you word much?
Why are old republicans so fucking weird looking.
While Knight is generally reluctant to give interviews, he spoke with the New York Times in October 2022 regarding his support for Republican candidates. He argued Oregon’s government had drifted too far to the left and described himself as “more conservative than Nike,” responding to criticism of him backing an anti-abortion candidate which apparently contrasted with the company’s image of supporting progressive social justice causes.[109] Nike itself donated $75,000 to Drazan and Johnson’s Democratic opponent, Tina Kotek, the eventual winner of the election. - WIKIPEDIA
Not just the old ones, many of them in the administration look super strange with even weirder views.
One looks like they fought a lawnmower at a barbershop and lost, another looks like a fanfic witch from The Matrix, several of them look like cast members from The Witch (movie), others have…odd features that make them look like WW2 villains or slightly methed out. And all of them are batshit insane.
You can’t even find people like that in a big city.
He sells a running shoe. A shoe folks. Now he thinks he has the ability to shape the worlds future because of all the money he made exploiting the producers of the shoes and gouging the customers of the shoe. What a fucking stretch. What is with these “too much money” guys?
“a guy who exploits vulnerable workers in 3rd world countries to sell boujee sports wear to Americans makes a truly outrageous donation to ensure he can further inflict harm on the world without having to pay his fair share.”
Fixed the headline
They have severe OCD Hoarding Disorder, and they have a serious compulsion to hoard money, even when they have far more than they or their descendents can ever spend.
If this was someone hoarding anything else at that level, cats, rusty cars, newspapers, junk, etc., the government would step in, remove their treasure, and get that person the mental help they require. We should do the same with Financial Hoarders - detain them and get them the mental health care they require, and remove their hoard that is making life difficult for their neighbors. If they were hoarding cats, we’d put them up for adoption, so their financial hoard should be redistributed to the citizens.
Because otherwise there would be a small risk that money would go to taxes instead and help people who need it.
What’re you saying? You don’t think these billionaires need their money?!?
Does a dragon not need its golden hoard?
The dragon earned their hoard! Taking it away is Commie DEI!!!
I’m saying that I wonder about the rate of return of spending that much on lobbying. I’d help him safe money on that, too.
Of course a sweat-shop owner is a republican.
This is exactly why we shouldn’t have billionaires. It’s literally impossible to spend a billion dollars on things for yourself, so what’s left but to spend it on manipulating other people.
They could spend it on bettering the world, but that would never occur to them.
“I don’t want to live in a world where my company isn’t the one company making the world better”
Nazi.
After the recent election? You can kiss that fucking money goodbye. Have fun losing big.
Maybe he’s also invested in the advertising agencies that the candidates will be spending their money with.
I’m sure Russia will appreciate the income.
What a piece of shit
Got it. Brand is dead to me.
Been dead for decades with their quality and child labor abuse.
MFW I don’t buy Nike shit anyway
This is the guy who invented asian labor exploitation and hid it behind Michael Jordan.
He looks exactly how you would think.
