Abdul El-Sayed: “I know that antisemitism exists and it’s a very dangerous force. But I also know that trying to meld the interests of Judaism and the Jewish people with the interests of a Super PAC and a foreign government itself risks exacerbating antisemitism because just like I don’t want to be held accountable for what the Egyptian government does because I share ethnicity with the people who live in Egypt, I don’t think Jewish people in Michigan or America want to be held accountable for what the Israeli government does”
FIFA will allow Pride flags at the Egypt vs. Iran World Cup match despite both nations calling for them to be banned.
“The FIFA World Cup is an inclusive event that welcomes people from all backgrounds. Fans of all sexual orientations and gender identities are welcome at matches and events.”
Buster Posey declines to discuss the Pride Night communications and anything else to do with Pride Night. “Baseball questions only.” Numerous follow ups got the same answer.
There hasn’t been a single baseball-related move/decision from Buster Posey over the last two years that has made me more disappointed than his presser today. Organization needs a leader, and he was not that today.
OPINION: The response by the San Francisco Giants’ leadership to the Pride Night fiasco has led me and many others to reevaluate our loyalty to the hometown team. https://t.co/VLvRJIKcpf
You don’t get to move on, J.T. & Co.
You came into our house, with our history, disrespected our friends, family, and neighbors, and stirred up more opportunistic hate. You’re a stain on this city & this organization. Congrats, that’s your consequence.
@BayAreaBrennan Gonna be totally honest I’m equally if not more horrified by the lack of solidarity with the queer community from management at all levels of the org as I am by the bigot pitchers.
This San Francisco Giants fan included the team in his wedding vows. He sent this scathing letter to the team for its Pride Night debacle.

This Giants Pride hat story is wearing thin on me. I keep having to read opinions from accounts who are either bots or too stupid to reason with. Pride is necessary and good, right wing bigots are wrong and should be mocked openly. Pretty open and shut case imo
