Colin Kapernick and the online mob

Colin Kaepernick is now being subjected to the excoriations of a baying, tribalistic, online mob. Reason, considered discussion and debate have been jettisoned by a large number of people for whom his actions seem to represent something approximating to sedition.
I am even seeing tribalistic bonding in front of me on my Facebook wall.
I don’t often get angry at what I read online, but I am starting to get very annoyed at the utter abdication of intellectual thought and considered reaction by people on Facebook who I thought had higher standards. Some of you have let your standards slip. Badly.
