Oh I wouldn't go that far.

1) Nike's already one of the richest companies out there

2) Kap is a terrible choice for this "movement." He's supported oppressive dictators and called cops pigs. I can't take someone seriously when they complain about stereotyping and bias, when he exhibits it himself by calling all cops racist and such. Also laugh at someone complaining about violence, but has has no problems glorifying violent leaders from other countries.

3) Nike uses cheap sweatshop labor. Not that I really care about that... but don't tell me you're concerned with THIS social outrage but are just fine with other "wrongs" and capitalize off them. It's like a rapist saying animal abuse is wrong.

Like Kap or not, the message in the commercial is great.

Nike sales surge despite storm over Colin Kaepernick's "Just Do It" ad

Nike's new ad campaign featuring Colin Kaepernick, known for kneeling during the national anthem to bring attention to racial injustice, appears to have scored a touchdown with customers.

From September 2 through September 4, online sales of Nike gear jumped 31 percent -- that's nearly double the company's sales during same period a year ago, according to Edison Trends, a digital commerce research company.

Probably Trump supporters buying Nikes so that they can make videos burning them for social media so they can be edgy.

[jimmy4321]

I love it when dumb people act out. Burning their Nike's LOL
They already paid for them, use them - just don't buy again from them buy shoes from another company.
Preferably shoes with velcro straps.

I think that all these PC vigilantes and SJWs deserve a nice round of applause! Oh wait, we can't do that anymore either:

Reps at the University of Manchester voted to replace noisy appreciation with the British Sign Language (BSL) equivalent - a wave of both hands.
Union officer Sara Khan said traditional clapping can cause issues for students with autism, sensory issues or deafness.

Yeah, can't wait for some snowflakes to get their panties in a bunch because a university held a vote and decided to respect the will of the majority. Of course, plonker Piers Morgan would be one of the first to start whinging. Bloody snowflakes.

Speaking of snowflakes
