I had posted "He's not" in response to this post earlier, but I deleted it because I misread the post. I thought Spike said "I can't tell if he's *actually* trans or not." Which I assumed was a tongue in cheek joke. Thus, my reply.

Now that I realize what the post actually said, I am curious what else it could be? There's no other way to understand his behavior and comments.
I guess I was giving him the benefit of the doubt as a human rights activist, but a deeper dive tells me he’s perhaps a misled individual.

Gotcha. I had to research his backstory. It was unknown to me prior to my post.

I'm in the same boat as spike, except I haven't done a deeper dive. I just remember him always being political, but from what seemed like a leftist perspective in the past. Human rights, anti-sweat shop, anti-corporate stuff. So this latest stunt left me confused about his motives.

i am almost of the mindset that he is using this WNBA stunt to get more attention to his other causes. Most people dont care about Turkey and their human rights transgressions because they dont know about it. he maybe thinks if he brings attention to himself people will be like spike and do a deeper dive into his history

but then i realize he is just a asshole for doing this so fuck my mindset

She didn’t have good relationships or communication with the players. She didn’t stand up for them at the height of online hate and slander (probably still at that point now) and was shit in salary/contract talks with the PA. Beyond that, fucking Google it

Man, watching this FIBA Women's World Cup has been so much fun.

If the W ever finds a way to get Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark on the same team, that team might go undefeated. They are so dynamic together. Holy shit! I love seeing them as teammates instead of competitors.

It's hard to find things to celebrate in this shitty timeline we live in.

But one great thing about being alive right now is getting to watch Breanna Stewart play basketball.

What an absolute joy.

Jackie Young is the first basketball player on the planet to win a high school state championship, NCAA championship, WNBA title, Olympic 5x5 gold, Olympic 3x3 gold, and a FIBA World Cup gold.

That's nuts.
