Half-baked idea, @BillSimmons: WNBA officiating isn’t actually bad. The hair is the problem. Too much hair whipping around on every play makes everything look so violent. Hard too judge. Makes every foul look way worse than it is. Here it is: Mandatory swim caps. Problem solved!
Pretty simple. The right is constantly inventing totally crazy scenarios of gotcha moments that won’t happen to create a sense of hysteria.
Here are the facts:
— A trans woman has never played in the WNBA. In 30 years.
— Trans women are barred from competing in women’s sports in the NCAA and the Olympics.
— 29 states have banned trans girls participation in women’s sports K-12.
— The Supreme Court ruled states can exclude trans girls from participating in women’s sports.
Y’all won. Y’all got it. So why is the right still crying and whining about an argument that is backed by law and policy at virtually every level?
Wait, I have an answer. They want to erase trans existence period and no amount of exclusion, degradation, or denigration will ever be good enough for them.
SO they create these dumb, illogical, stupid-ass scenarios because there actually isn’t enough there for them to make a salient point. It’s fear-mongering bullshit that is designed to create a hostile environment for trans people. It’s weak.
Healthy disagreement is a feature of a free society, not a flaw. If your beliefs only survive inside an echo chamber, they’re probably not as strong as you think. I’d rather have uncomfortable conversations than surround myself with people who only tell me I’m right.
If you’re MAGA and you haven’t blocked me 🫡 I respect that you’re not afraid of different viewpoints. I don’t block people for having opposing views because that’s a dangerous habit. I’ve noticed a lot of Jazz fans have blocked me. I’m guessing it’s because of politics.
