Somewhat yes. But it wasn’t as mainstream, not hiding the objective as it is now. They used the police brutality thing ( which I do believe has SOME legs) but now they don’t even try to hide behind that. It’s just “she’s a black queen and boss bitch queens don’t bow to white scum and anyone who says she can’t act like a queen is trying to oppress her!”

She literally says that people she trusted “experienced” it though.

So is she skirting around the fact they straight up lied?


I think we are so far down this rabbit hole that black people literally can’t tell if criticism is legitimate or racist anymore. They have been led to believe that all criticism is racist so hearing the Fever fans cheer after a missed FT felt racist.

So while no racism occurred, those players legitimately told media members like this how racist the response was.

And that…is conditioned insanity.

Imagine believing that people who would pay to watch a WNBA game would make these kinds of comments. That demographic is to the left of c on z.

The entire thing was stupid to begin with. Manufactured outrage, begging for crisis addicts to pay attention to a dogshit league with unlikable players and commentators.

Replay of the USC @ BYU women's basketball game several years ago. Players complained of racist taunts. BYU conducts a thorough investigation and finds nothing.

c on z is most likely a normal dude who is just right of center.

He’s a damn good troll, though.

Wait, so who made the original claims that racist remarks were made in the first place? Was it a Sky player? They should be the ones apologizing and should be facing discipline by the league for lying.

Do they not realize that jumping the gun and flying into a fit of rage only marginalizes actual racism?

They really don’t. They think “starting this conversation” is a great result.

It always seemed like a weak claim and only investigated because the player was black with fans backing the home team white player by cheering or whatever when Reese missed the free throw after the hard foul incident. They probably gave her a hard time some other times as well which is expected in a rivalry between teams and individual ones like theirs has been made to be by Reese as much as anyone. It’s not a claim I would want to risk my reputation own by treating it as a fact before it’s investigated. Another example of the black that cried racism. Eventually a real act of racism might actually be pushed, but don’t blame people for assuming it’s BS again.

I heard someone was "making" monkey noises when Reese was at the foul line. So another thing honkeys can't do in the presence of blacks. Smfh the weak mindedness.
