Meyers Leonard Goes Anti Semitic

[Iggloo]

I guess he forgot his owner was Jewish? Dude is in some deep shit

Shocking footage shows Heat center Meyers Leonard 'using Jewish slur'

Miami Heat center Meyers Leonard was heard using an ethnic slur during a live video game stream on Tuesday. The 29-year-old was playing 'Call of Duty' when he unleashed a profane, bigoted tirade.

Cancel culture has its next person lined up.

Cancel culture has its next person lined up.

It's called learning how not to be a dick.

He canceled himself. You can't use a work like K$ke in 2021, sorry, much less while you are streaming video to thousands of people.

Some of y’all have never been in a COD lobby circa 2010 and it shows.

But seriously, if you’re streaming, don’t say stupid shit.

He definitely fucked up. I'm just stating that everyone's going to want him to be cancelled now.

He's not getting released but yeah he's gonna have to take his medicine

I will say though, I wonder if he'll get worst than what Desean Jackson said last summer (because nothing really happened to him).

How would the reaction be if it was Tyler Herro playing CoD and dropping N-bombs?

Fine and suspension for sure, and he deserves it. People want him cut. He had a momentary brain lapse and being a prominent figure (any NBA player really) while on a Twitch stream, you should know better. This is why some players avoid these platforms.

It'll be similar, he'll have to apologize and such. Jackson actually went all in and did some research and did a long post about how he learned how ignorant he had been. I was impressed.

My first thoughts as well lol

I play Madden online quite a bit and I have heard it all. Even the people who text you when you turn off the headphones and still want to jaw. Sure, that kind of thing happens in online trash talk. But only an idiot would do it on a live video stream. He even had a videogame PC sponsorship deal.

The internet is undefeated!

Dude is damn near 30. I hate the cancel culture, but at the same time if you put yourself in the predicament that's on you and you have to deal with the repercussions.

I don't believe he should be cut, and ultimately I think "sensitivity training" will be the course of action taken. He will profusely apologize for his mistake and he'll meet with members of the Jewish community. Then he'll be fine (so long as he proves to be a NBA worthy player).

Kyle Larson used the N word with an A ending last year and basically had to sit out the rest of the year in NASCAR.

That's how we learn. Things change.

It is really quite simple. Don't post stupid shit on Social Media and don't say stupid shit when live streaming. For the most part problem solved.

Words spoken in anger on the internet shouldn't be anything remotely close to being a big enough transgression to cancel someone's career. Say you're sorry and move on. Suspended indefinitely is a big over-reaction, unless by that they mean until a public apology can be made.

There is a chart of how offensive to how much value they bring to the court. Leonard is injured and his contract is not guaranteed next year, saving the Heat 10 Million, his offensive shit leash is very short.
