Un-American Disgrace Colin Kaepernick, Holds Press Conference Wearing T-Shirt of Totalitarian Dictator Fidel Castro

You can’t make this stuff up.

The guy who is “protesting oppression” shows up to a presser about “oppression” wearing a t-shirt depicting a communist dictator who oppresses people.

Are liberals really THIS stupid?

From The Daily Caller:

In addition to all the other flak he has received for boycotting the national anthem, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has been blasted for justifying his decision while wearing a T-shirt that features Cuban dictator Fidel Castro.

Even this criticism overlooks an interesting fact: Kaepernick’s defiant protest would have been totally illegal in Castro’s Cuba.

The shirt Kaepernick wore commemorates a 1961 meeting between Castro and black activist Malcolm X.  A few people, such as George Diaz of the Orlando Sentinel, have pointed out the irony of Kaepernick complaining about racial oppression while wearing a shirt featuring an oppressive dictator. Castro imprisoned thousands of political opponents over the course of his long reign, while driving hundreds of thousands of people to Florida as political or economic refugees.

The irony is even deeper than that. Not only was Cuba under Castro a deeply unfree country, Castro’s regime also specifically banned the kind of complaint Kaepernick is making.
