So. Colin Kaepernick. That guy.
Man, we’d like to think that somewhere in there, there’s a dude who’s not completely insufferable. But every time he opens his mouth, the possibility becomes more and more remote. At this point, we’re not even sure how his own parents are able to put up with him.
Especially after something like this:
Colin @Kaepernick7 accuses his parents of "problematic" behavior raising him, saying they were "perpetuating racism," such as when his mother didn't want him getting cornrows pic.twitter.com/NFXnLeLGXX

Pardon our French, but Colin Kaepernick seems like a real prick.
Man, If I had a dollar for every time my mom disapproved of my hair style…

My parents were problematic because they didn't want me to shave the sides of my head while keeping the top grown out and bleaching the shaved part yellow to look like an edgy 90s rock rapper. https://t.co/Jk0kHmg0XU

My mom wouldn’t let me grow a mullet at 15 … she must’ve hated me 🙄

My dad didn’t want me to get cornrows either.
My dad was black…..

Actually black (particularly) African parents frown at their sons wearing cornrows and piercing their ears. They could even go as far as cutting your hair while you are asleep! Black parents often get their way, but skip over that let’s criticize white adoptive parents.

“I know my parents loved me. But they weren’t crazy about the idea of me getting cornrows, which makes them problematic and inherently racist.” This is what he says about the two people who selflessly took him in and gave him a loving home and a good life. Maybe Colin would’ve been happier had they never come into his life and given him the chance to grow up and become a perfectly mediocre athlete.
Can’t figure out why nobody wants this guy on their team. Must be racism.

It’s not enough that he has to bash the parents who love him in an interview on national television; he also has to immortalize his disdain for them in the pages of a graphic novel (a graphic novel that next to nobody will ever read, but still). If Colin Kaepernick’s parents made one mistake with him, it was making him think that he was special.
