That racism and corruption are huge problems Americans are bad mouthing America about, you don't get to sweep it under the rug because bad things are happening somewhere else in the world.

That sounds like deflecting to me.

I had several adult beverages myself last night lol.

My post was directly about Lebron/Cuban. I was not trying to downplay or absolve anyone involved with racism or corruption in our government. Both things can be true at once.

Note - I agree with the bolded part the proverbial 110%.
