Must be something wrong with me, all I thought when I saw 42 was "hey cool, honoring Jackie AND we get 42 diamonds to choose from at the start"
Not 1 single time did I even think of race.
Pretty much explains it.

I was actually thinking along same lines, but more like " I get two choice packs with digital deluxe and i have to choose 2 out of 42? Who the hell am i gonna pick ugh thx alot SDS !

It’s only 2 out of 10. The other 32 are elsewhere in the game.

It's not political. Y'all are giving SDS too much credit. It's 5 ball players and it's a pre order pack. 5 more to get revealed next week.
They'll all be low diamonds, they'll have these packs scattered everywhere in the game as well for a collection.
Oh. The skin tone of the 5 revealed happen to be people of color.
Let's play ball here.
If you want political stuff or cancel culture discussion, I'm sure you can find a reddit thread about Aunt Jemima, Mr Potato Head, Gina Carano, or D Watson.
They got political last year. They threw it everyone’s face on the game and the forum. What you talking bout Willis.
Last years was political, we all know why they did it and nobody blames them for sharing their stance on it. Not going down that rabbit hole, but this is quite a bit different since this is just celebrating the man who changed the game, and thats Jackie Robinson.
Sharing their stance? You do know the political group they backed is anti-America right? Do a little research and you will see what they really stand for and it’s not about their t-shirt slogans either.

What’s the relevance to this post? I’m not catching what you are throwing out there? Is the suggestion that America is inherently racist because the building they structured resembles a symbol used by fascists? It’s really just a symmetrical box and can be compared to almost anything.
Let’s instead talk about their ideology which is almost identical to the ideology being pushed down our throats by groups that push slogans - which is “blame a group to make your group dominate”. That’s what the nazis did with the Jews. It’s called intersectionality and it’s a marxist doctrine that puts the proletariat verse the bourgeoisie. The soviets did this with the ukranian farmers back in the 20th century.
America is going through this currently and everyone is buying it because it’s decorated and dressed up in “rights” and “equality” and is really just the same marxist doctrine to separate people based on identity so that we aren’t United as a people. But keep buying the Bs. Or pick up a history book.
Either way. I don’t like racism regardless of who is the person that is spewing it.
You are correct in your assumption. You are only fooling yourself if you think its a coincidence.

Depends who the other 5 are. Based off of previous years low diamond cards of these players the the Jackie and Mays won't be real good. Gibson and Rivera will be ok but out of the first 5 choices Griffey is the clear best IMO
