Philadelphia Eagles DeSean Jackson fell into a trap I saw coming a mile away. He posted an anti-semitic Instagram post basically explaining what Hitler was trying to do that people needed to understand. Of course, Hitler sympathizing is never a good idea. Ask Candace Owens who said Hitler just want to expand his country beyond its borders. And the reason I saw this goof up coming is because this post came from a post the head of the black militia group that protested on Stone Mountain last week. The footage went viral and in came the praises for seeing armed black men. But predictably so, the background of their leader was looked into.

The group is called the Not F*cking Around Crew, ran by Grand Master Jay and the post that DeSean Jackson made appears to be identical to one he previously made. In his rush to support the idea of a black militia group, at best, he could have just rushed to share whatever he could find on the guy and at worst just needs a really good talking to to understand what the hell is going on in his head. After all, he’s 33 years old. He should more than know better. When the NBA player Ja Morant got in trouble for an Instagram post saying to F the police, I at least said he isn’t even legally able to drink so I could understand. Here? Not so much. I was hoping that no one would shared the anti-semitic post of Grand Master Jay’s but there’s always got to be one. Smh

A 94 year old Holocaust survivor, Edward Mosberg, wrote him a letter offering to take him to a former Nazi concentration camp to help show him why the anti-semitic rhetoric he was cozying up to was wrong and harmful.

“I would invite you to join me at the sites of these German Nazi death camps, to understand what evil truly is, and why sharing quotes of the man behind this evil is so offensive to us all,” Mossberg wrote in the letter. He survived multiple concentration camps and his late wife survived Auschwitz.

Aside from learning a little about history, I’m really hoping he learns some discretion with his social media. Some things just aren’t worthy of public consumption. Affinities for murderous dictators and war lords aren’t something you should share with the public that is if you would like to remain employed. For now the team has fined him and issued a strong statement about what he said. This is not the time to be having these types of f*ck ups. I think we’ve all seen what little tolerance there is for these types of things lately.
