And this was just a coincidence that the date is 9/11 of 2001?

Go to 0:19

If you learn to think big picture, you'll see exactly why they did this with Kap when it goes against all common sense. Rather, it makes perfect sense.

And Kap himself is just a low IQ pawn.


Just as it makes zero sense for Merkel to slaughter her own people and destroy her own country... or for Macri to slit the throats of his own countrymen and destroy Argentina. Yet they do it anyways when it goes against all common sense and the well-being of their citizens and their country.

Bad move. Dumping any mutual fund with NKE. See where this stock is a few months from now, currently $82.20

looks like many share your sentiment, its taking a hit. Grant it down day for the markets, but its the biggest loser on the DOW today off just under 3%....the day is young

NIKE

3 month daily


big.chart



look at the volume, yikes, its reached its daily average by 10:45 am lol.....$79 pretty big level as is $78.35 its 50 SMA. Going to watch this one....

I don’t understand this .
NIKE one of the top 5 marketing companies of all time in my opinion .

Ive understood some of their past controversial things they have done in the past and knew what the angle was they were trying to persue, and I agreed with them.

Yes of course this will be great for their most loyal demographic but NIKe is one of those companies that have always appealed to a wide range of people from all races and incomes .

This just don’t fit in with that .


I hesitate to call this move idiotic . Only because of the tremendous respect I have for what NIKE has done in past marketing the last 30 years.

Maybe they thinking at a higher level then me and I’m looking at all this wrong .

But just on the surface this is one of the most WTF things I’ve ever seen a company I respect ever do.

Didn't really surprise me but the only thing that did surprise me is how far behind the cultural zeitgeist this move was. I can see doing it 2 years ago or last year but Kaep is old news now really. Unless you are on social media all day, you really don't hear about him much anymore. I don't even think his supporters care much about him anymore, so all you really do is alienate people and give the people that live for faux-political outrage stuff something to crow about.

He died for Israel but going in he thought he would be fighting for his country. Noble guy, but he got duped into believing he was supporting his country.

His father should've been smart enough to tell him that he has a wife and kids to defend... and that dying for Israel won't help your wife and kids who need you.

Now he is dead and nothing was achieved for his country. But they did get closer and closer to building their temple.


I know those who don't understand Greater Israel and think these wars against "terror-ism" are real will go, "Fuck you, man. He was a patriot. USA! USA! USA!"

And I agree with Tillman's love for his country and his "idea" of service, but he got sold a bill of goods that was fake.... and he died for Israel. Trillions of dollars wasted and thousands of soldiers' lives thrown in the trash can, as well as hundred of thousands of people in the Israel area killed for.... for what?
