Anywhere between two days and five years. You never know, you might think you've escaped, you might be living the good life in 2024 then suddenly BAM you're autistic.

Most people have very dumb opinions on things outside their fields of experience. It's why even journalists, whose literal job description is "write about things that happen to other people" tend to have areas of expertise and sound like idiots if they have to go way outside of them.

I totally believe Lebron has valid points when he talks about Cleveland. He grew up there and knows what some of the problems are. I doubt he knows anything about hong kong. It's just bizarre he said ANYTHING about the issue. He's usually one of the last people to talk about something -as in, he waits for everyone else and then takes a similar position.

I read an observation that whenever you read a newspaper article about an area of your own personal expertise you scoff a lot at how wrong the journalist gets it.

Then you turn the page, read another article on another matter, and believe that journalist 100%.

Yeah. Usually he takes like, the exact average position of NBA players after triangulating off comments for days. This was a bizarrely stupid. Even if you're 100% pro china he sounds dumb.

It's weird that people who have such a public presence are so open to providing their input/opinion on stuff like this. If I was as big as Lebron I'd be terrified to ever publicly talk about a lot of things out of my own lane. I guess that's probably due to being aware of where/how/why I'm uninformed though lol, which probably isn't the case with a lot of public figures (specifically athletes).

edit: should note I'm not saying they shouldn't give their input, I just think it's insane how many people do when they know nothing

he's not uneducated about the subject, all it takes is one cursory glance through maybe 5 or so wikipedia articles to be somewhat informed about the current event:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handover_of_Hong_Kong

the guy is just covering for space jam 2's release in china

Yes, and the vast majority of famous people commenting on stuff like this don't take the time to do that.

As for Lebron, I didn't realize he was promoting Space Jam 2. Guess he could just be protecting his wallet as you said.

Like in every dictatorship you have to build a cult around your leader. Everything said against the leader is suddenly an insult against the whole country. They can't let anyone insult the whole country, right? That's just personal.
