Also, mlb fans will be highly discouraged from using the word ever again. They'll make the word "dinger" synonymous with the n-word in no time. Then all words that rhyme with dinger like ringer or finger,etc. will be frowned upon.

Once again (and nearly 100% of the time), the hunger and demand for racism by the media and Democrats far exceeds the actual supply in this country.
These people are clowns. Constantly looking to be the victim.

I grew up in Bama in the 70s and 80s but by far the most blatant incident of racism I ever witnessed was when I moved to Boulder.

Yep. They are looking for water in the desert and lose their shite when they see a mirage like this.
Even if the guy said it, it isn’t a racial problem as much as a mental health problem because you would have to have multiple screws loose to yell it with that kind of enthusiasm in the middle of a crowd.

i can see how someone who only hears the 2nd shout can come to that conclusion but hearing the first and seeing him wave pretty clearly shows he was shouting dinger and trying to get the mascots attention
So we can still count the number of these stories being legit on one hand

You'd think they'd learn at some point.

They need it to be real. It validates their world view. That racism is pervasive and emboldened. This being real was an opportunity to say "SEE!!! America is irredeemably racist and racists are bold an unapologetic." White folks needed an opportunity to signal that they're allies and show their POC friends they'd boldly speak truth to the power of racism.
It's all such an exhausting song and dance where the truth doesn't matter and it has to speak to some greater reality of society.

So many people are disappointed to learn that this guy was saying dinger. You’d think they’d be relieved. shite is backwards.

I'm going to assume by "this stuff" he means made up racist stories, so he is technically right here.

This isn’t about one particular instance. The point is this stuff happens all the time, & little to nothing is done. And, regardless of the context, or the evidence, many automatically jump to “yeah…but…” rather than listening & trying to understand the root of the frustration
Yea frick context and evidence!

Which is funny because that's exactly what he did when faced with the reality of this situation.

Even shel came in this thread and said this was BS. Credit to him.

TMZ Seems to think the guy was yelling at the mascot Dinger
Wonder what other media outlets may come to this conclusion.

It’s incredible you sat down, thought this, and then typed it out.
I’ll refrain from being rude but it’s an amazing demonstration of how limited your perspective in life is. I’ll go ahead and assume you’ve never stepped foot outside of the United States.
