Don’t worry y’all, Neil deGrasse Tyson in all of his scientific wisdom has figured out why it was ok for NFL players to kneel during the National Anthem yesterday.
In the #GameOfThrones Universe, to "bend the knee" represents the very highest form of respect and loyalty.

Whoa, a fictional show proves it.
Because SCIENCE.
EL OH EL.

Wait, you mean people aren’t revered for kneeling in a fictional universe?
That’s shocking.
It represents submission to an autocrat monarch.

Serfdom, yup.
And the possibility of getting your head loped off if you didn't take a knee.

That too.
It is a universal sign of subservience

Apparently Neil and his ilk are AOK with being ruled over.
Yeah thanks for that whole fantasy role-playing nerd shit. I'll stick with standing during the national anthem like my brother Marines

What he said.
In Game of Thrones it represents submission and subservience

Neil really thought this was a good way to prove that kneeling wasn’t a disrespectful, cowardly act.
That’s adorbs.
Google "fiction."
Report your findings.

It’s worth a Google.
You do know that It's fiction, right?

We’re not sure he does know it’s fiction.
But what does Harry Potter say? Because, really, that's the only fictional universe that is relevant towards furthering US laws & policy.

Harry Potter said they needed to stand their asses up.
Did u get your PhD at the Univ. of Obtuse? Cuz the dumbest shit comes out of ur keyboard. That's an act of subjugation under threat of death
