Neah. She don't have a choice, she's going to go lesbian.
Well, she certainly acts uncomfortable in that dress.

The WNBA was most certainly not built on the backs of black players.
It was built on the backs of all the players, of all races, that can't hit a 5 foot jump shot.

In reality it's built on the backs of men. WNBA would be gone tomorrow if the NBA wasn't funding it
Washington Mystics owner Sheila Johnson says it wasn't just Caitlin Clark who moved the needle for the WNBA this year ‼️

31% of Mystics attendance the entire season came from 2 Caitlin Clark games... 👀 pic.twitter.com/8d7kqUbDxR
This is the question I would love to see Matt Walsh ask her.Jaxson11 said:
She should share all her endorsement money with black players to help with her serious case of white guilt.

I get a kick out of people claiming she surpassed Pistol Pete's college scoring record. Unless she played in a different league (Men's basketball) she actually has zero points in men's college basketball.
95%? Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch. Maybe at big schools with really good programs. I think zero percent at our small school could beat her.YouBet said:Muy said:

This. 95% of high school varsity boys would smoke her ass 1:1. She would have been hard pressed to beat me 1:1 at her age and I was a backup varsity player.
In this case, from what the reporters have shown at the games, tons of little girls are showing up because of her. And because of those little girls, their parents take them, which just adds to the number of people in the stands and on TV/streaming.Burdizzo said:

Some fans show up just for one person
Why would they, or anyone, stop watching her because of what she said? It's not as if she came out and said she was pro-abortion or child sex trafficking.WestTexasAg said:
This makes me sad. My youngest daughter loves Caitlin Clark, and we have really enjoyed watching her play these last few years.

Or is this one of those "not an inch" to anything not right-wing Christian/maga conservative?
Not this. She's promoting/perpetuating a racist fallacy. It is harmful to every little girl that buys into it because of her. Has nothing to do with MAGA, Right Wing, etc. It is morally reprehensible and harmful (not to the extent of abortion and child sex trafficking but still harmful to society as a whole).No Spin Ag said:Why would they, or anyone, stop watching her because of what she said?

Maybe he doesn't want his daughter looking up to someone with her views. I wouldn't want that.
What part of what she said is harmful and morally reprehensible to our society as a whole? Is it what she said about African-American players or her saying she felt that she had white privilege?13B said:Not this. She's promoting/perpetuating a racist fallacy.

White privilege being seen as a fallacy will always be that to certain demographics in this country. It's just a reality for them.13B said:
Perpetuating the "white privilege" fallacy is harmful and racist. Now that you mention it, pretending like someone is getting rich off the "backs of the poor oppressed" black players (who put up the money, pays the bills, suffers the losses, takes all of the financial and legal risks?). I love how in the same sentence she says she earned everything but that there is "white privilege". The sooner that people promote meritocracy and quit blaming failures or successes on the color of their skin, the world would be a better place. Privilege exists but is not singular and is sometimes earned, it is omnidirectional and multifaceted.
Didn't say we were going to stop watching. Just disappointed she said that. You're right, it wasn't anything worth canceling her over.No Spin Ag said:Why would they, or anyone, stop watching her because of what she said?

Haven't seen much evidence of that really.TheCurl84 said:
Apologies if this has already been addressed, but I'm told by someone who is actually on social media (I'm not) that these viewpoints are consistent with her social media posts and likes/retweets over the past few years. Can anyone confirm?

I admit that certain people are privileged, but other than this thread, I never think about it. I don't understand why others are fixated on it.

Still, that you can admit that privilege exists at all is much more than others on the right would ever say. To many, that;s a start.

That doesn't take away from the fact that it's Okay to say there are people who have privilege.
