First, there were the tiki torch marches by white nationalists in Charlottesville, Va.; then there was the Roy Moore, Sean Hannity-inspired coffee smashing protest, and now there is the “cut the Nike symbol off socks you already own” protest of 2018.
On Monday, Nike announced in typical Nike style that Colin Kapernick was the face of the 30th anniversary of “Just Do It” campaign. The ad featured a close-up of Kaepernick’s face with words: “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”
And the Make America Great Again crowd lost their collective shit.
It’s as if the ad literally created a wypipo wedgie by jamming their shorts into their tightly clenched asses. It didn’t help matters that ESPN reporter Darren Rovell revealed that Kap had been on the Nike payroll the entire time that the NFL whiteballed him for protesting injustice, inequality and the deaths of unarmed black men, women and children by police.

Snowflakes immediately ran to the internet to post images of them burning old-ass Nikes purchased during the late ’90s and cutting the Nike swoosh off their socks because, judging from their level of outrage, tube socks mean much more to them than black lives.
Seriously, look at this goofy shit. This dude burned a complete set of Marshalls clearance-rack Nikes that he purchased with his own money to protest Nike standing with Kap.
