Assuming these TMZ tapes really are Sterling, and that they are not staged, then there is a problem beyond racism that Sterling suffers from: human exploitation.
If an 81 year-old man has a 31 year-old partner that he supposedly is committed to in a serious relationship, than what implications does this have?
Having lived in southern California many years, having read the LA Times and having followed the local and national journalists about him as a terrible and cheap owner, I had my suspicions.
But if true, these conversations prove that this rich man truly does exploit those who he seems to "own".
And that is worse than simple racism, as ugly as that is.
That ownership mentality is closer to being a slaver.
Monogamy has its quid pro quo, but people in a "paid relationship", as this appears to be, is pretty bad.
Pretty low.
Racism is awful, yes.
Ownership of people through wealth and power is worse.
Too bad, the former commissioner arranging Chris Paul to the Clippers finally gave the woe-be-gones a chance.
Too bad.
I hope many people learn the wrongs of this guy beyond his ugly bigotry and prejudice.
Its typical of historical characters who exploit and wiled their power to be above the law.
It is wrong to exploit and take advantage in such a way.
