Some of You Will Not Believe Me, but the WNBA Is Woke Trash Filled With Hyperthyroidal Clown Hookers
If only the world were run by seethingly-angry toxic lesbians.
It would look just like the WNBA and be just as profitable.By the way, can I mention a pet peeve? A long, long time ago it was unusual to see a sports team with a singular nickname. Like, "the Avalanche." Rather than a plural, like "the Jets." You Old-Heads might, like me, remember the old "NASL" soccer league. That league featured a lot of teams with a singular nickname. But this stopped being a novelty many, many years ago, as more and more teams adopted singular nicknames. In fact, it's now a cliche. So of course the WNBA has to be the most cliched franchise on earth and feature mostly singular nicknames. Atlanta Dream. Connecticut Sun. Chicago Sky. Indiana Fever. New York Liberty. Phoenix Mercury. Portland Fire. Seattle Storm. I had to look these up, you know. I can't name them off the top of my head like some commenters I could name but won't. (Garrett.) The "singular team name" thing is only attention grabbing when there's one singular team name among many plural names.
WNBA backtracks after Sophie Cunningham fans ordered to remove 'XX-XY' shirts at game: 'fell short' Atlanta Dream's State Farm Arena allegedly put fan in pro-transgender shirt on Jumbotron before security told mother and daughter they'd be removed if they didn't cover XX-XY shirts, a brand Sophie Cunningham had posed with.
It's so fucking gay and stupid.
Minnesota Lynx, another one. But maybe "lynx" is also a plural. But if so, it's plural selected to sound singular.
Fights over silent protests against males in women's sports have jumped from the high school soccer field to the professional basketball arena, as the WNBA wrings its hands over the meaning of "women" with just six weeks until the playoffs and eight months before a draft that could include NBA veterans who claim eligibility under league rules. Fans of gender-critical Indiana Fever sharpshooter Sophie Cunningham allege that security ordered them to cover up their XX-XY Athletics shirts, which promote female-only sports, at Sunday's Atlanta Dream home game against the visiting Fever at State Farm Arena, where Cunningham celebrated her 30th birthday with an overtime win. This was despite the fact that Cunningham appeared with XX-XY founder Jennifer Sey, the 1986 U.S. Women's All-Around National Champion gymnast, and Riley Gaines, the former collegiate swimmer, at a Minnesota Lynx game soon after Cunningham endorsed female-only sports in an ESPN profile.
$1000 a seat? Are you all insane? To watch what are essentially boys high school players, only butcher?
Both the WNBA and Dream confirmed the incident late Monday, saying fans were wrongly asked by league security -- not the team's personnel -- to cover their shirts, but did not mention the content of the clothing. "This should not have happened," a league spokesperson told Front Office Sports. "The Atlanta Dream believes in creating a safe and inclusive environment for everyone. Unfortunately, at last night's game, WNBA security took actions that fell short of that standard," the team said. ... It represents an escalation in response since Seattle Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton allegedly cursed out teenage Cunningham fans in XX-XY Athletics gear, also holding signs thanking her for "speaking up for girls," when the Fever visited the Storm last month. Cunningham shamed Keaton on social media. Seattle journalist Brandi Kruse, who helped organize a pro-Cunningham rally outside the game, reported the girls weren't told to cover the shirts or hide the signs. She said Climate Pledge Arena security refused to remove Keaton for harassing fans, though the WNBA suspended her for five home games for unspecified behavior. "They gave us t-shirts during overtime and told us we had to leave or cover our [XX-XY] shirts up," an unidentified woman who attended Sunday's Fever-Dream game with her teenage daughter told conservative activist Adam Francisco after the game. The daughter said they paid $1,000 each for their seats on floor 3, row C, three rows from the court, to support Cunningham and girls' sports. "We did nothing. We were just sitting there," the mother said, adding that she had wanted to make signs supporting Cunningham but refrained so as not to ruffle feathers at the game. Their shirts have variations of the XX-XY logo on the front, and on the daughter's Riley Gaines collaboration shirt, "for the girls" on the back.

WNBA security told 2 fans to cover their “XX/XY” and “For the girls” shirts or LEAVE the Fever-Dream game.

WNBA fan subreddit bans posters from using Sophie Cunningham's name after defense of women's sports
A Reddit user shared screenshots showing mods confirmed the ban and threatened further action for questioning it
The WNBA and its fans are in a constant struggle to outdo whatever previous record they already set for most ridiculous sports league ever created. ... [O]ver the last several weeks and months, the self-destructive tendencies and nature of the WNBA organization, its coaches, and fans has reared its ugly head yet again. This time, their ire has been directed at Sophie Cunningham. ... And now, in perhaps the most ridiculous and explanatory example of the league's fandom, has seen her name banned from the WNBA subreddit. Seriously. One Reddit user tried to post about Sophie Cunningham in the r/WNBA subreddit, only to find that they weren't able to use her name or several other abbreviations. They then messaged the moderators, who then confirmed that this was a purposeful decision and that any further questioning would lean to being banned. "Why do you ban people from posting about Sophie Cunningham, who's a WNBA player?," the user asked. "We filter content based on Sophi [sic] because it tends to bring out trolls and people who aren't fans of the W," the mod answered. "But she's a WNBA player that does have actual fans," the user responded. "If you can't post about a player you're a fan of, that seems ridiculous." "We have chosen to filter content. If you want to post freely about Sophie you can go to a different sub," the mod said. Unsurprisingly, the user pointed out that it's absurd to block posts about a WNBA player in the r/WNBA subreddit, asking how that made sense. "You aren't even a contributor to this sub, so I suggest you go back to the other WNBA subs. This is our decision. If you keep messaging about this you will be banned," the moderator answered.

Kind of ironic nowadays that this would be illegal discrimination here in the UK.
Philosophical beliefs are a protected characteristic under the 2010 Equality Act, a way for atheists to protect their Muslim friends and not give a special carve out for religion. This was deemed by a court to include the (rather common) belief that men cannot become women.

You'd think that all these people with their sociology degrees would have at least read the forward in one of their trumped up textbooks.
Here's a clue. Americans are spiteful. You ban something, it becomes more popular and almost a rite of passage to test the limits.
Try this: "Anyone bringing green dildos to the games will be removed."
Now: "If you wear a chromosome shirt, you will be asked to leave."

What is your definition of a "religion" that everybody will buy into?
Because this is part of the atheist-neglected slop that I had to wade through in order to get to a workable functional model.
So many atheists are content to say "Marxism is a religion", but with a similar sloppiness they will say "What makes religious people dumb is there belief in supernatural beings" or "things without evidence".
Truly those don't both define "religion".
That's why I concentrate on what they have in common. A social structure of a Vision as the image of what it's all about, and societal dynamics like enforcement--which is not essential, but just typical.
So, my point is finer, it cannot be a "religion" because we don't have a workable, functional definition.
What you yourself are citing are social structures. And that's my point, things can have similar social dynamics.

Yea, it's a big money-loser, but the NBA is so fucking stinking rich it can easily afford to subsidize these angry bitter gashcunts.

Sex obscurantists.
"Gender", at best, are groups of social customs that humans with imperfect knowledge put around the preservation of reproductivity. How the primest of female picks the primest of males, or vice versa. And on down the line.
Society believing that with standards about choosing mates and bonding to a pairing serve the next generation the best.
Dismissing it all as a "social convention" with hopeful social conventions that don't have millennia of success behind them is anti-thinking.

I suppose there's some overlap. But a religion tells you how to behave, just like a social structure, but it also tells you how to FEEL as well. Hate this group, they wear blue. Love this group, they wear green like you. It ties into an emtional connection beyond simply being a set of rules.
Marxism tells you to hate Capitalists (wrecks and looters).
Technically a religion barely needs to have a supernatural element, like Confusionism where it is very much in the background.
Now I suspect all religions have a supernatural origin, but that's beside my point.

I don't even bother with leftist thinking as it is all designed to give them power over others--the reasons change but the will to power is always present.
Life is simpler in retirement as I don't have to take silly arguments from ghastly people in my profession or from my students seriously.
If I felt better, I would volunteer to be a paper discussant at my professional conferences that I used to belong to. Just so I could let fly and piss in their Cheerios. These are deeply unserious people that hate others hindering their progress to utopia.

His ways and his thoughts are stratospheric above our own. So none of our limited thoughts can do but be a derivative of the curve of God's thinking (a tangential line at a point).
Thus God works by revelation. He is a lamp, not to light up the next mile, but to our feet. To keep us from stumbling here and now. We will end up contributing to something far greater than what we could ever think up, if we are lead by his Will and revelation.
This was a social pattern that when people abandoned God, they took away and applied to Science: Always looking to the revelation of Science. But the parsimony of the practice of Science causes us to consider whether an organ adapted for survival, is fit for "figuring it all out".
So we reaffirm a model of something being more complex than we can figure out...just without any promise of guidance through it. We reaffirm our lowly brain and its likely insuficiency without faith.

Women vote for the strong horse. It's why so many feminists end up spreading their legs for Muzzies. They bitch and moan about The Patriarchy ©️ but then let the ultimate patriarchal religion colonize their dried up, barren wombs. It's why so many crazy bitches are so wet for Luigi Mangione despite the fact that he's a flaming homosexual. He murdered a man but he did it unapologetically. That makes so many leftist skank whores double click their mouse.

She was being pimped as the league's next superstar player. She's also more photogenic than some of the hideous farm animals in the league.
But ... she was overrated and crashed and burned.
The player who became the star that Reece was supposed to be was ... Caitlin Clark. A white girl. Who isn't hysterically woke. And who doesn't apologize for it.
Ditto Sophie Cunningham.
The fact that two straight white girls became the stars of a black lesbian league -- and stepped over the fallen carcass of Angel Reece to get there -- is a big root cause of why the league despises them so much.

Ecclesiastes gives us two instructions about arguing "with a fool". Simple-minded people say they "contradict" (like it takes a modern to see this). When a more expansive view can see it as a "tension".
So, sometimes you argue with a fool according to their own folly. Our faith is not only retiring, but to reach out. I am first and foremost a "dialogist". I seek to have dialog.
And in dialog, we must seek illustrative terms, not mere labels. This is also what drives me to seek functional models and descriptions. Not just use terms as the impenetrable shields they sometimes are.

A big chunk of the upper class got that way by massive deficit spending thus causing inflation in asset markets. Own the right asset and it is increasing far faster than the cost of food, etc.
As in real estate and stocks.
Others are 'government contractors' and skim or even steal the entire enchilada via doing nothing for something. Atlanta as a fulcrum of local, state, and federal spending, is a regional epicenter for these folks. So are other big cities.

Cap Susi weather station, Greenland, 1944
Operation Bassgeiger @11:35
[The Germans] built a small wooden hut among some rocks to house their important radio equipment which was vital for the continuing operation of the weather station.
April 1944, a six-man team from the Danish Sledge Patrol attacked the Germans who fought back. The Danes fleeing, but one German officer was killed in the exchange.
The remaining 26 Germans then radioed home, requesting evacuation. The Luftwaffe decided to evacuate the men by air. The Germans found a stretch of firm level sea ice some 5 to 6 km south of the base.
And on the 3rd of June 1944, a large Ju290 piloted by Hauptmann Schlack-Lebahn flew from Monazan in southern France, landed and rescued all 26 Germans, and then flew back to France without incident, a round trip of about 5,000 mi.

If one has been to England and seen the actual motte and bailey castles that the Normans were fond of, then this makes sense. You put your weakest arguments for which there is no support on the periphery (the motte)--e.g. "the Republicans are doomed, doomed in the midterms I tell you", then when pressed for facts and logic supporting that thesis, they retreat to the bailey that most GOP officeholders suck which by and large is held by most people here after repeated lessons in political history.
One assertion does not lead to the next but the disputant implicitly links the two so that the strong assertion predicts the weaker unsupported assertion as a natural consequence.

Like the chicks who support Lindsay Clancy. I didn't remember this case until Better Bachelor brought it up in a video yesterday - https://tinyurl.com/mrhu4en5
In short - Lindsay Clancy murdered her 3 kids back in January of 2023. She took them into the basement one-by-one and strangled them with an exercise cord while her husband was out shopping and getting her meds. This isn't disputed by Lindsay's defense lawyer. To me, there might be a psych defense due to Lindsay's 30-odd medications, but that only should change if she spends the rest of her life in a psych ward or ride the lightning.
While this story is horrific in itself, what's really bothering is there's thousands of women on TikTok that are siding with Lindsay. Some are even going further and saying that the husband's the real murderer, based of astrological signs and how he looked on stand at a single moment. They've even set up a GoFundMe account for Lindsay, in her parent's name to get around the obvious prohibition of using these accounts to support an accused murderer.

We should be amending it, not violating it. The 90s era bullshit argument of how incrementalism "preserves veneration" is how the Court argues it can slide the Constitution to adapt to new times (thus the opposite of "veneration").

Schumer has done it. Pelosi has done it. All the politicos that claim to be active in their faith fall back to it.
Heck, any of these people might actually believe it (whereas I don't find it quite the right fit). But it's how they construe or don't construe it.
Joe Biden used to say he agreed with the Catholic Church that abortion was murder. But he felt at that time that he can't decide for another person (like we do with "other murder"!). So he wasn't going to use his position to enforce the "Catholic Faith" on others.
Okay, and then he said "If I really believed in the reproductive rights of women," he would favor funding abortions so that women can make their choice.
To Joe's "credit", I've never heard him since then argue that he really, truly supports the position of the Catholic Church but he's just not going to impose his belief on others in an official capacity.
But the upshot is that when he started seeing it as a denial of human rights of a woman, he had to do something about it. When he just thought that hey, maybe it's murder, ... nah!

What is the actual purpose of the WNBA, which runs a $40 million deficit that is paid by the NBA? There is no prospect of the league becoming profitable. They are an embarrassing public clown show. Who benefits?
Usually with funding comes control, but apparently nobody is demanding anything in return for the $40 million.
Is the NBA paying protection money? Does the NBA believe that the existence of the WNBA helps them in some way?
