How you are viewed depends on what you’re being courageous about.

Oh but it doesn’t work that way in soy boy world. Their whole existence is one big double standard.

Right, but those specific events are the only ones that really matter.
She wasn't good enough for those and now has an easy way to claim persecution.
USWNT had a rash of injuries at left back.
Hinkle was called back up to the team after leaving due to the pride jerseys issues.
SJWs freaked out.
She was removed from the roster 3 days later.
Those are all facts.
Reading between the lines, she was borderline good enough to be on the roster. Especially with all the injuries. She was left off to appease the crazy SJW fans the the USWNT has bred and been feeding for years with their rhetoric.

And do you know she was blackballed for her religious beliefs for sure?
The pride jersey was 2017 so was she blackballed in the 2016 Olympics for something that happened the next year?

Seeing how the current team is
She definitely was
But they won’t tell you that

So 50/50 whether she should've made it or not.
High enough for y'all to say shite like this with confidence.

So in essence, you're saying she has no right to her own opinion...voiced or not ????

It was a factor.
To think it wasn't is naive.
Posted on 7/11/19 at 11:37 am to KosmoCramer
I never said it wasn't a factor.
I'm sure it was one. But if she was a talent like Alex Morgan, it would've been ignored or smoothed over.
She's fringe at best so why risk team cohesiveness with someone who isn't a star?
I'm simply saying it wasn't the only reason. She's not being persecuted for her beliefs as some of you would have us believe.

Likely, but it probably had more to do with team chemistry. With a team made up mostly of gay people, and having a player they knew was against their way of life, it would potentially lead to some resentment and locker room distractions.

I didn't remotely say that at all. She has every right to her own opinion and she can scream it from rooftops if she wants.
Unlike most here, I don't have a problem with free speech whether I agree with it or not.

Well, that's a complete contradiction.

Exactly.

Seems similar to the situation with that d lineman from Missouri. He wasn't quite good enough for the NFL, but people wanted to use his story to promote an agenda.
Appears to be the same thing here, just a counter agenda.

Which is disgusting
Why should they resent her for that?
