As camp nears, Drew Brees says the impact of his anthem comments ‘completely broke my heart'

People fall into logical fallacies all the time. Many people in the world are both not too terribly bright and are often led around by their emotions.

X=kneeling for the flag
Y=BLM,social injustice,systemic racism (take your pick)

Interviewer: Drew do you support X?
Drew: I cannot support X here's why...

Twitterverse: Drew doesn't support Y!

Logical fallacy. Drew's answer about X had nothing to do with Y. He got called on it because instead of the Twitterverse (including Jenkins) looking into what his answer about X was about, he didn't talk about Y.

This is why politicians don't actually answer questions that are asked to them. They simply deflect and give whatever talking point they are trying to get across. Being real and honest will get you slammed.

I'm happy to hear that Drew has no plans to kneel. One it's against his personal principles. And two X has nothing to do with Y.

Exactly. This is why it is meaningless to judge anyone based totally upon anything you read on the internet. The mainstream media has morphed over the years from a information sharing source into a revenue generating source. Before you act upon anything search it out and see EVERY source of information and even at that take it with a grain of salt.
