The Hypocrisy of LeBron James on Social Justice

"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor."
- Desmund Tutu

LeBron James is a great man. The social justice work LeBron has been responsible for in America is something to be applauded, and through his charities LeBron has contributed good to this world. However, the enormous unabashed blatant hypocrisy he showed in the wake of Darly Morey's tweet that showed his support for the Hong Kong Protests was very disappointing. For LeBron James to call Daryl Morey selfish and uneducated and "only thinking of himself" for standing up for Hong Kongers' human rights is truly pathetic. LeBron is clearly being motivated by the financial incentive good relations with China presents to him, and was thus willing to sacrifice his integrity to try and shut down Darly Morey for supporting a social justice issue. LeBron just can't say no to that sweet CCP money being sent his way from China. Real social justice advocates, like Martin Luther King Jr, Muhammed Ali, or even Maya Moore, would be disappointed in LeBron's hypocrisy. We thought you were a better man than that LeMickey.
