I see where a forum member talked about how "they" want retribution and another talked about how this is the reason he doesn't support diversity.

Where did anyone here disparage an entire race?

I mean, at least you’re upfront about holding people to different standards.

I think some of the newer members might benefit from seeing how this exact discussion has played out before: “DJax is either dumb or anti-Semitic”

Step 1. Sports player or personality says something undeniably racist.

Step 2. Blowout members say “Hey, that was really racist.”

Step 3. A particular member takes it upon themselves to try to lecture members about how they are actually the racist ones for taking the sports person’s racist statement so seriously.

Step 4. The forum gains a new JoJo.

It looks like we’ve got JoJo2 (2o2o?) here.

It would be interesting to see if the people making and defending the comments I called out would have the balls to do it outside the forum. And see if they keep their jobs.

I don't think what Foxworth said was that bad, but knowing if the colors were reversed and that person would be fired, is the issue.

One member makes the point that it comes off as hypocritical for a network like ESPN to champion ideas like diversity, tolerance, and equality when they clearly aren’t holding people to the same standard...

...and another member literally calls them a KKK member.

This country has lost its mind.

Ok, we'll ignore the dog whistle one. Are these comments acceptable? Simple yes or no.

Veiled threats on a baseball card forum? Is this the infamous Internet Tough Guy we've all heard about?

Is that a tacit admission that you grossly misunderstood the comment I quoted alongside yours?

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

Why did Foxworth go out of his way to single out Josh Allen fans?

Unsolicited advice -

1. Watch The Social Dilemma.
2. Recognize that social media, and the mainstream media, are two of the most divisive entities in America right now.

I purged my Twitter feed of 99% of political pundits, news, etc. and it removed a layer of negativity from my mostly positive life.

I also stopped watching the news (I was watching around 2 hours a day while working). Trust me, you're/we're not missing much. News literally needs/feeds negativity. It's good for ratings. And ratings means they can charge their advertisers more.

Is this really how we get to an equal world?

Extremists can be dangerous no matter which side of the aisle they fall on.

To balance out a bit, none of those people are Dominique Foxworth.

There is a clear difference between racially moronic statements and racial violence.

Dominique falls into the former. He’s a moron. He obviously views the whole world through racially tinged glasses and needs to step back and work on himself.

"It’s because the people who are telling me that Josh is the second coming and Josh is better than everybody are people with American flags and dogs and skulls and crossbones. … If you go just take a dip into their tweet history, it’s some really concerning retweets and likes. … It’s not about Josh,”

I added the bold and underline for emphasis. Again, I think he's tip-toeing around his feeling that Allen's fans are racist.

Not defending, just giving context.
If this is the full quote, then the OP completely misrepresented the situation. Thank you for sharing the additional context and clearing things up.

And that's the issue, Foxworth can make a comment like he did and keep his job. Another person in the sports media makes a comment like this: “ALL LIVES MATTER…EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!” and he loses his job.

You have a black athlete calling a white athlete a "b**** a** white boy" and he keeps his job.

None of these things are really that bad, but if a white athlete said, "b**** a** black boy" and he gets cut the next day. That is not promoting diversity, that's pushing it further apart.
