I only saw the headlines, but it is pretty ridiculous - I don't think I would take a knee either, not because I am a racist, but because I disagree with ridiculous and impotent virtue signaling social movements, that do the inverse of what was intended.

Absolutely my reasoning as well. I cannot stand how the world has turned into a dictatorship over the last few years and everyone has turned into a bunch of pussies.
Even if you are racist, that is your business and you should be able to be racist without being judged. I salute you for not taking a knee. Also, I salute the person that decides to takes a knee. Neither is causing any harm and both are clinging to their beliefs or for whatever reason they choose. Be yourself is the BEST thing that we can do.
I am not sure if it doesn't cause harm, as it is being forced either like the SA cricket board did, or in the court of public opinion. It is is funny that so many people who support this kind of thing, have never actually experienced racism themselves. It is a symbolic gesture, but does very little at the practical level, other than cause more division. I would prefer less symbolism, more activity.

Most things that are forced upon us more than likely is harmful. Personally, I support anyone doing whatever THEY want and not doing it just to fit in. I do not support forcing anything.
Racism is traumatizing Symbolism is great, Action is desired.
