In an age where political correctness stifles free speech, former MLB All-Star Jonathan Lucroy has emerged as a voice of reason—or should I say, a refreshing breath of fresh air. As he faces backlash for expressing his opinions publicly, it raises an important question: Why are we punishing athletes for standing up for their beliefs?
Lucroy made headlines recently by revealing that he has been inundated with hate mail following his outspoken posts on social media about the political climate and sports. In one notable incident, he defiantly refused to kneel during the national anthem while playing for one particular team.
“I gave them the finger,” he boldly declared on X.
Now, let’s take a moment to unpack this situation. Lucroy implores Americans to exercise their right to vote—an act so fundamental that it ought not be politicized at all. Yet here we are; people like him face vitriol simply for daring to challenge the status quo.
“God forbid a pro athlete stand up for what they believe,” Lucroy wrote in response to his critics.
This sentiment resonates deeply when juxtaposed against today’s culture of outrage and cancelation—a culture that seems more intent on silencing dissenting voices than fostering genuine dialogue.
He elaborates further. “That’s part of the problem. Some people are too sensitive, emotional, and weak to hear the opinion of people that reached the athletic pinnacle of the craft or any other top level. See [Elon Musk] and how much hate from the other side he’s getting.”
It is alarming how many athletes remain silent out of fear—fear not just from fans but also from organizations that prioritize image over integrity. According to Lucroy’s observations,
“I am not politically correct.”
His candidness shines through as he expresses unwavering conviction about what many don’t dare voice: “When I say that 90+% of American-born MLB players are conservative, you can take that to the bank.”
He continued, “We just don’t speak up as much because we are told to be neutral. I will not remain neutral anymore.”
This isn’t merely an isolated case; it’s indicative of a broader issue where those who achieve greatness feel pressured into silence regarding their beliefs due solely because they might upset someone else’s sensibilities.
Lucroy further emphasizes his stance by saying, “I’m stubborn and hardheaded.”
He understands fully well what it took him years on end in Major League Baseball—a journey fraught with challenges—to reach this point where he’s willing risk everything rather than compromise his values:
“I also know what it took for me…as well as witnessing character attributes defined by greatness among my peers…I care about my children, family, God, and country.”
The significance behind this is monumental—it speaks volumes about personal accountability versus being shackled by societal expectations fueled largely by political agendas masquerading under “neutrality.” In an appearance on “OutKick The Morning,” Lucroy explained why speaking out was vital:
“I don’t want to get specific,” but even without naming names directly, “…these teams they come down…they don’t want you politically polarizing…”
His story reveals how players were coerced into submission regarding both taking knees during national anthems or receiving vaccines under duress—actions dictated more so out fear rather than freedom or choice!
“But you know,” he admits candidly, “they just want you stay neutral…keep your mouth shut.”
And therein lies our quandary! These circumstances compel us all toward self-examination concerning our own willingness—or unwillingness—to stand firm amidst increasingly authoritarian pressures within society at large!
Ultimately it’s crystal clear: Jonathan Lucroy is calling upon fellow Americans—including athletes across every profession—to reclaim their voices against rampant hypocrisy! We need more individuals willing enough share authentic perspectives regardless potential fallout—even if requires giving “them” (whoever they may be) The Finger.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
