----原文很長 此篇只截取和NBA相關部分----
Summary: Kyrie Jones (應該是Irving) posted on Instagram a 2002 video clip of
Alex Jones expressing a conspiracy theory regarding a “New Word (原文拼錯是
World) Order” out to profit on our misery.
摘要:Kyrie在IG限時動態分享一則
一部2002年Alex Jones的"新秩序"的陰謀論影片
註：
Alex Jones 是個極右翼份子
常常發表一堆陰謀論因而聞名-
My Take: There is some irony in this news item coming right after the
previous one about the miseducation of American youth. Because Kyrie Irving’
s thought process is an example of what happens when the education system
fails.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar:
在上一篇談到美國青年教育後
看到這篇新聞有點諷刺
因為Kyrie的思想過程就是教育體系失敗的例子
Last October, I wrote a piece about Kyrie Irving’s refusal to get vaccinated
against COVID-19 (“Should We Just ‘Leave Kyrie Alone?”) and why this
reckless choice was destructive to the country and especially the Black
community where he would be an influential role model. The facts proved that
accusation to be true. Irving didn’t care. He continued to promote his
anti-vax sentiments—regardless of the cost in lives and health to others—
proclaiming himself a “martyr.” Not kidding.
去年十月我曾寫一篇 「我們就這樣不管Kyrie Irving嗎?」的文章
Kyrie Irving拒絕接種疫苗的抉擇會破壞這個國家
尤其他具有影響力的黑人社區
事實證明 指控屬實
Irving 不在乎
他繼續宣揚他的反疫苗情緒
不顧他人的生命和健康代價
並宣稱自己是“烈士”
真的不是在開玩笑
We might have just left him alone to stew in his own gelatinous ignorance.
Rich and famous people get away with saying dumb things all the time because
their money isolates them from consequences. They surround themselves with
Yes-people whose job is to confirm whatever hare-brained ideas they have.
Yes, sir, Mr. Irving, the Earth has never been flatter.
我們只是讓他一個人呆在他自己無知的世界裡
有錢有名的人總是說些愚蠢的話
因為他們的錢讓他們不用承擔後果
他們周圍圍繞著“贊同”他的人
畢竟他們的工作是認同那些愚蠢的想法
「是的，Mr. Irving，地球從未如此的平坦」
But now Irving is back and more destructive, insensitive, and just plain
silly than before. He decided it would be a good idea to post a 2002 video
clip from Infowars founder Alex Jones. Yeah, the guy who has been on trial
for denying the Sandy Hook shootings and who previously admitted in open
court that he’s a performer and his onscreen persona is just a character
(that bilks millions of dollars from unaware viewers). The main gist of the
clip is a warning about a cabal of international leaders who are secretly
releasing plagues on the world from which they can profit. (Of course, we
know who really profits from making this claim.)
但現在Irving又回來了
比以前更具破壞性、更麻木不仁、更加愚蠢
他認為分享 Alex Jones 的 2002 年影片是個好主意
是的，那個因否認桑迪胡克槍擊案而受審的人
註:
Alex Jones曾謊稱2012年美國桑迪胡克小學槍擊案是一場騙局
是左翼勢力為了推動槍枝管制而製造的
但實際上真的造成26位師生死亡
最終被受害家屬提告誹謗且須賠償受害家屬-
Alex Jones之前在法庭上承認他是一名表演者
那只是螢幕上的一個角色
並從不知情的觀眾那裡騙取了數百萬美元
這段影片(Irving轉發的影片)的主要內容是警告
「國際領導人們正在秘密地向世界釋放瘟疫，所以他們可以從中獲利」
當然，我們知道誰能真正從中獲利 (這邊指Alex Jones)
Alex Jones is one of the most despicable human beings alive and to associate
with him means you share his stench.
Kyrie Irving would be dismissed as a comical buffoon if it weren’t for his
influence over young people who look up to athletes. When I look at some of
the athletes who have used their status to actually improve society—Colin
Kaepernick, LeBron James, Muhammad Ali, Bill Russel, Billie Jean King, Arthur
Ashe, and more—it becomes clear how much Irving has tarnished the
reputations of all athletes who strive to be seen as more than dumb jocks.
Alex Jones是世上最卑鄙的人之一
與他有所交流代表著你分享他的惡行
如果Kyrie Irving不是一位人們仰慕的運動員
他只會被當作是個滑稽的小丑
我看到一些真正利用自身影響力去改善社會的人
例如:Colin Kaepernick, LeBron James, Muhammad Ali,
Bill Russel, Billie Jean King, Arthur Ashe等等
而 Irving 很明顯地
在這玷污了這些運動員的名聲和努力
Irving does not seem to have the capacity to change, but we have the capacity
to keep fighting against his brand of destructive behavior. One way to do
that, beyond shaking our heads and nasty tweets, is to write to his sponsors
and tell them to drop Irving—or you will drop them. Nike has likely decided
not to renew his contract past this season. But he is still sponsored by
Pepsi and 2K Sports. (Don’t feel bad for Irving: his career earnings at the
end of the 2022-’23 season will be $230 million. That buys a lot of
Yes-people.)
Irving 似乎沒有能力去做改變
但我們有能力與他的行為作鬥爭
要做到這一點的一種方法
除了搖搖頭和推文之外
就是寫信給他的贊助商
告訴他們放棄Irving不然就抵制贊助商
NIKE 很可能已經決定在本賽季結束後
不再和 Irving 續約
但他仍然得到百事可樂和2K Sports的贊助
不要為Irving感到難過
他在 2022-23 賽季結束時的職業生涯收入將達到 2.3 億美元
這可以買到很多“贊同”他的人
