It's a dumb protest. I prefer to protest specific policies, politicians, and so forth. Protesting the anthem/flag is too close to me to protesting America as an idea.

It seems you don't have any idea why they're protesting.

They aren't protesting the anthem/flag. Every single one of those athletes love America. They are protesting during the singing of the national anthem to use their platform as sports figures to help stir a conversation about social injustice and racial equality. If you think that's a dumb protest, then I feel sorry for you.
