The way @seattlestorm fans, players, and even an owner treated teenage girls today for the simple act of wearing @xx_xyathletics shirts and cheering on @sophaller was beyond disgusting. They were cussed at, booed, and intentionally tripped. One of them was berated until she cried. As usual, the people preaching “love and inclusion” prove to be the most hateful bigots of all. I will have much more tomorrow — and none of the culprits will be spared my fury.
Spot on!! 🎯😎😆
I can’t wait for the comments!!
Nicklas Nilsson explains the difference between right-wing and left-wing people in spot-on text on Facebook:
"If a right-wing person is gay, then he is, and he doesn't care what others think.
If a left-winger is gay, then he demands legal changes, protests against everything and everyone, and turns it into a political struggle.
If a right-winger is vegan, then he simply doesn't eat meat.
If a left-winger is vegan, then he wants to ban meat, halt food production, and protest outside farms and chicken farms.
If a right-winger doesn't like guns, then he just doesn't buy any.
If a left-winger doesn't like guns, then he tries to ban them, prevent everyone else from owning one, and hates those who do.
If a right-winger is worried about the climate, then he flies less, drives an electric car if it suits him, and sorts his waste.
If a left-winger is worried about the climate, then he wants to ban fossil fuel cars, air travel, and meat for everyone else, protest outside factories, and demand that the state forces the change.
If a right-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he moves to an area with good schools, or chooses a private school, or gets involved himself.
If a left-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he demands more tax money from everyone, equal results for all, a ban on charter schools, and protests against every inequality.
If a right-winger complains about his job or workplace.. he doesn't. He changes jobs or starts his own business.
If a left-winger complains about his job – then it's the boss, the company, or the colleagues who are at fault. He demands collective agreements, strikes, changes for the whole community, and protests against the company so that it suits him.
If a right-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he moves, renovates, or buys something else.
If a left-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he demands rent freezes, more subsidies, regulations for everyone, and protests against landlords and politicians.
If a right-winger fails with a business or an investment that goes wrong, then he gets up, dusts himself off, and tries again tomorrow.
If a left-winger runs out of money on the 24th, then he blames the rich for having too much and needing to contribute more, blames the lottery win that didn't come home last week, and mutters that he has such damn bad luck.
If a right-winger sees this – then he sends it to a few friends for a good laugh.
If a left-winger sees this – then he tries to argue against it, get it removed, and delete me from Facebook."
I’m 16. I play because I love my sport and my team.
Watching @sophaller say it out loud — that girls shouldn’t have to give up fair competition or our privacy — meant more than she’ll ever know. When a WNBA star says it, maybe people finally listen.
I know what it’s like to have your voice on this treated like it’s hateful. It isn’t. Wanting a fair game and a private locker room was never hate. It’s just the truth, and I’m done being afraid to say it.
Thank you, Sophie, for going first. You made it easier for the rest of us.
REPORTER: “You support not just the populist right, but the far right — in fact, very fringe parties in some countries.”
ELON: “No, I support the NORMAL people.”
REPORTER: “Okay.”
MUSK: “What you call the far right FALSELY."
REPORTER: “You think is the normal person?”
ELON: “Yes! Literally, you could go back 10 or 15 years, and these policies were completely normal. One thing that’s quite funny is to take a speech from Obama and Hillary and then go to someone who’s on the — sort of, what I call — the lunatic left, and say, ‘What do you think of the speech by Trump?’ ‘Oh, wow, he’s the worst person ever.’ Actually, that was a speech by Obama. Or actually, that was a speech by Hillary.”
[Reporter stunned, left stammering]
MUSK: “Literally!”
REPORTER: “No, I agree that the center of gravity in this country has shifted. Certainly the Democratic Party shifted to the left, but that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about people like Rupert Lowe.”
ELON: “Not fringe right. Please! It’s actually just NORMAL people.”
I want to ask the students screaming “Death to America”, do you have any idea what happens when American values die?
Because I do.
My family fled Iran, a country where freedom died. You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.
You think America is oppressive because you have never experienced real oppression.
You think silence is violence because you’ve never been silenced.
You think words are dangerous because you have never watched a government drag someone away for speaking them.
You think capitalism is evil because you have never stood in a bread line.
You think borders are immoral because you have never had to flee across one.
You think revolution is romantic because you have never had a revolution take everything from you.
I have.
And that’s why I refuse to be quiet.
@Don_K_Williams This is what I expected them to look like the entire tournament. Belgium has the US on their heels and disorganized. As you said- This could get ugly fast.
Victor Davis Hanson says he knows he’ll get in trouble for saying it, but many of the Democrats’ most radical voices are first or second-generation immigrants from FAILED nations.
Ilhan Omar, AOC, Mamdani, Chevalier.
Hanson argues they learned early that trashing America gets them protected and advanced by the left.
HANSON: “One of the things that's not being talked about and I know I'll get criticized for this but here it is...”
“If you look at the candidates, Chevalier, and AOC, and Rashida Tlaib, and Mamdani, and I could go on...”
“But the kingpins, they’re first or second generation...immigrants. And they come from areas that, to be candid and a little blunt, are failed miserable places, such as Ghana or the Caribbean, or many Latin American countries, or Mexico.”
“Almost 50-60% of them are.”
“So they come to this country either with their parents or their parents came and they were born. And they sense, they put their feelers up...and they learn very early on that if you trash this country, the left will protect you and advance you.”
“And no matter how much money you have — AOC’s parents were pretty affluent. Ilhan Omar claims she was worth $30 million. Mamdani’s a multimillionaire settler colonialist from Uganda.”
“And when you look at all of them, they have nothing but contempt.”
“Then don’t come! There’s no reason you have to come. You came here because it was prosperous and safe, and there was not inbred tribal racism as in all these countries.”
“Apparently, the people came with Ilhan Omar because they were on the side of the genocidal [Mohamed] Siad Barre.”
“They keep saying genocide, genocide! The only person that really is a genocidal maniac was Siad Barre, the head of the Somali government, of which a lot of these immigrants’ parents were part of, including Ilhan Omar.”
America’s 250th birthday is not a Republican celebration.
It’s not a Democrat celebration.
It’s America’s celebration.
So if your state is refusing to participate, the question isn’t political… it’s simple:
Why wouldn’t you celebrate the greatest country in the history of the world?
This is one anniversary that should unite us, NOT divide us.
Put the politics away.
Celebrate the flag.
Celebrate our history.
Celebrate the heroes who built, defended, and preserved this Republic.
America turns 250 only once.
Let’s act like it.
It's amazing that these decrepit neocon imbeciles have gotten every major issue wrong for 40 years and just absolutely insist on keeping their streak of unbroken wrongness alive at all costs. Yes, 27 million people immigrated here between 1880 and 1924. The difference is that they came here legally, there was no welfare state for them to leach off of, they were not flooding in from dysfunctional lawless third world hellholes, and they actually desired to assimilate into American culture. Oh and we had 250 million fewer people living in the country at the time. So in other words, it was nothing like our current situation. At all. Not remotely.
