Swapping Kick Tokens on Uniswap - Help Please!

Update on the following post, if anyone is eyeing those juicy free KICK tokens that you got airdropped randomly, they are pretty worthless as per the comments from X-51 below. All the free KICK tokens are locked and the only way to unlock them is to trade on the KICK exchange which I would not really recommend. So thanks again community for the help. If you got here hoping to sell your Kick tokens, I guess you know now!!

All, this is an article to actually ask for help from the wider community. I assume someone from the Publish0x community has run into a similar problem before. Please comment below and let me know if you have had this issue before and how you resolved it!!

So I got some random tokens sent to my ETH address a while ago and with the current DEFI craze i realised some of these never heard of tokens are being exchanged on Uniswap. So I set myself on the adventure to swap some of these obscure tokens for some free ETH. Issue is when I try to swap one of these tokens on uniswap I get a message in the uniswap exchange portal that looks like below:

So the exchange screen looks like below:

I have adjusted the slippage to be above the trades price slip at 30%. When I hit the "Swap Anyway" button and type "confirm" on the text box that pops up nothing seems to happen? What I am i missing here? Is it because there is not enough liquidity? I checked that part on uniswap analytics but it looks like swaps similar to the size of my transaction have been completed recently. Does anyone know how to get past this pop up confirmation box and allow for the trade to execute? Open to all suggestions!! Hope I can find some answers here with the communities help!

PS: I have also adjusted the settings to be an "Expert" as it was not activating the "Swap" button in the normal mode.
