Christian Pulisic is in a bit of trouble for liking a pic on IG showing a guy who was just fired from the US Soccer board for complaining about the anthem protests. In the post, the guy is in his Doomsday bunker surrounded by weapons and talks about shooting "anquiefa" if they come his way. Pulisic rarely says anything other than boring vanilla stuff to the press but he let his MAGA show for just one like and now it's probably going to be game over.
He's been absolutely awful for Chelsea since blowing his hamstring in the FA Cup final last year. Weston McKennie has been the best yank abroad this season by far. Pretty important player for Juve.

Conservative would work, but only because that is another word often used when what is meant is “white”.
I mean, I suppose that is the more "I'll spell it out for you" way to say it. Glad she dialed it back one step, I guess? Nazi references are abused all the time, but straight up comparing whites in America with Jews during Nazi times... geez. I don't think these people should be "canceled" or whatever, but I don't think it's crazy that someone with a very public job gets in trouble for stuff like this.

So wait...are you saying that some people misunderstand their personal political views to be an inherent quality of their whiteness? That, when broader society disagrees with or disapproves of some value or political attitude they hold, they see that as a direct attack on their whiteness? Because I don’t see how someone could mistake ideological rejection for racial rejection unless they saw the two as necessarily intermixed.

If as my pal says, she comes out and says she was back on the performance enhancers Cos she’s getting back into fighting, and they made her say crazy things, that’s a clear uninterruptible path back for her. That stuff does make you crazy. And everyone loves a redemption story, however contrived and confected.
I predict she will take this approach when her film with Shapiro dies on the vine and she has nowhere to turn.
