Petition towards the NBA regarding their choice to side with the Chinese market

The Issue

How can a league that claims to be progressive, pro equality & guys like LeBron try to be more than a athlete when there's true oppression occuring via concentration camps harvesting organs and killing people in Hong Kong?

Adam Silver and the league needs to know that people aren't happy with their empty statement, that they are in the wrong for siding with the Chinese and that Darryl Morey was right in his views but the league chose money over freedom, independence for the Hong Kong people.

I would rather bring attention to this to the news, the league and especially Adam Silver himself, just to let the league know that we DO NOT agree with their choice of siding with Chinese because of monetary reasons.

This is bigger than what Donald Sterling did and I truly thought the league was more progressive but sadly i was wrong. I want to be the change in the world, basketball is global, I love it but I do not want it to be like this - a league that only cares about being progressive when it benefits them. 

We need to show the league that we won't stand for this and bring awareness to this. #StriveforGreatness #StandwithHK
