The Fake Celeb

It's not a surprise celebrities can be fake. They can put on a persona that they care deeply, but don't. You see it mainly with the vocal Hollywood actors and athletes. The ones who constantly complain, but don't put an effort to make change. I'm talking race issues and big incidents. The thing is, there are people of that caliber that are capable of wanting to see change. You see someone like a Russell Wilson donating. Other companies and people that you don't hear often putting their money into a cause. Even if they don't say anything, the contribution to a group has a good effect.

Then you have people like LeBron James. You can make the case of being one of the best players of this century so far. The debate of greatest is not the discussion, however. What is is the phony persona he has. I don't see him as someone who truly gives a crap compared to other players. And this is a criticism of some of those vocal people. They can hide in their fancy homes protected by security and not understand the problems of society. They think they understand, but they don't. Is there stuff he contributes or donates to? Yes, but it's not to the level of what he is complaining about. It's one thing to help children, but to not help find solutions to race issues makes him look like a chump.

I look at James as an attention seeking person trying to look better in order to get fans on his side. Why can't guys like him and Gregg Popovich and a few others find a solution instead of whining? Because they don't have one. And while I do think they need to focus on basketball more (apply this to anyone of any other sport or profession they have), they could do their part to help out without having temper tantrums. The personas people like them carry are bad and they will dictate how others act in the future. Both sides in general, but I feel like it's more liberals whining.

There needs to be real people from both sides. Rather than constantly whining, maybe work together and get a solution or any idea to set up unity. But that will never happen because there is always fighting. The vocal fake ones can either put up or shut up. They can't hide behind social media all the time. There can be peace, but they lose focus on that.
