Actually do some research before you call someone a dumbass. The U.S was assisting the Vietnam people fight against communist oppression(hmmm sounds familiar) and Ali refused it because

LeBron dosnt want to take any risks(financial)with this one so he's siding with money instead of using his voice to help other people of color. Ali risked everything. His freedom, money, career and his life by speaking out against the war and the powers at be.
For the record I don't blame LeBron for protecting his money I'd probably do the same. Not everybody can be as nobel as Ali was but Let's not act like he dosnt sound like a complete hypocrite on this one and suggesting that this situation is anywhere close to Ali and Vietnam just shows how uneducated you really are about this topic.
Yup, and bottom line, you want to be a known social activist, then you'll be judged as one.

Uneducated on the topic and accusing another man of being uneducated on same topic.

I'm pretty sure Vietnam did not have a cultural revolution, so the Viet Cong was really more of a nationalist revolt under a red flag, like the revolution in Cuba, which was also nationalist, racist and patriarchal, all the things that real communism is not.
Vietnam supposedly played the US vs the Sovjet vs the Chinese and managed to keep foreign forces out entirely.
The US on the other hand might have supported "freedom", but that freedom, like today in the west, was probably only for the rich and educated in the cities, while living off the work of poor farmers.
All these things are complicated, so is the Hong Kong vs China thing, at least on a moral level, both sides have understandable motives.
What is not complicated is that the patriotic move for an American is to support a free Hong Kong, because China is the biggest threat to US and European power in the world. It's time to start revving up that good ole' CIA playbook against the Chinese instead of against Russia and whatever country Israel wants to destroy next.

The point is that Ali risked everything for his beliefs. LeBron did not. He didn't risk anything. He admitted himself that he wasn't educated on the topic so he decided to play it safe and just side with him money and the money of people who pay him his money. Again I don't blame him but the situations arnt anything similar
So a black man has to lose everything to get the white mans approval

More like he shouldn't lecture other people on helping certain groups of disenfranchised people out, when he has the power to do so but won't because of his own financial interests.
