Jonathan Isaac wants all that smoke with Charles Barkley?
Jonathan Isaac, an NBA forward for the Orlando Magic, responded on Twitter to Charles Barkley’s recent comments in support of the LGBTQ community.
Barkley made the remarks during a celebrity golf tournament near Lake Tahoe, where he criticized individuals who refused to drink Bud Light after the company partnered with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney.
“I’m gonna buy some drinks for y’all. And I’m gonna buy Bud Light. And I’m gonna tell y’all something: All you rednecks or a–holes who don’t want to drink Bud Light, f— y’all. Hey, y’all can’t cancel me,” Barkley said.
“I ain’t worried about getting canceled. Because let me tell you something: If y’all fire me and give me all that money, I’m gonna be playing golf every f—ing day. As I said last night, if you’re gay, God bless you. If you’re trans, God bless you. If you have a problem with them, f— you.”

Isaac questioned the meaning behind Barkley’s comments and emphasized that being concerned about the influence on children is valid without being hateful.
He expressed his belief that parents should be the primary influence on their children, even in the face of influential entities like the media, movies, and corporations.
What does this even mean? No one with human decency want trans or gay people dead or without rights.. God bless them all.. but it’s 1000% valid as a parent or adult to be concerned about the observable movement to influence children. Is that hateful? It’s insane that In order to be the primary influence on your children you have to go to war against influencers, the media, movies, multi million and billion dollar corporations, and good people like Charles who choose to fall in line with empty politically correct statements and narratives. Nothings Charles said would get him cancelled and it’s wild that he thinks it would.

Isaac also disagreed with Barkley’s assertion that he couldn’t be canceled and found it wild that Barkley thought his statements would lead to cancellation.
Barkley was seen on video offering to buy bar customers Bud Light and making explicit remarks in support of the LGBTQ community.
Isaac, who played 11 games for the Magic last season after recovering from an ACL injury, commented on the situation despite being sidelined with a torn left adductor muscle in March.
Can’t wait to see what Charles has to say about this.
