That is suprising actually. Typically those closed cell lefty forums are an echo chamber of nonsense and circular logic. Self awareness is typically non existent.

NYTimes are pretending to be progressive by being racist while shooting down any meaningful progressive economic legislation that is being proposed.
While I disagree that they are doing this intentionally the results of all this anti white crap is doing just that.


If Democrats ran on class issues, not race issues, they would win elections.

Baseball has more to worry about in its inherent BOREDOM, than any racial issue. It is possibly the most diverse sport in the U.S.

NYT has made their position very clear. I will never click them.

This has been obvious for at least a couple of decades now.

I submit that we need to look into NYT ownership and editorial board, and make them widely known, so we know who exactly is intent on causing such consistent sociopolitical division and strife.

Outing these people may be the only way that this nation is eventually allowed to begin to heal.

Prove me wrong, bro.

Lots of older white men really like baseball. Many have dedicated their lives to the sport and made careers out of it. The Chicago Sun-Times wants you to know that this is a problem, a "white problem".

Beyond the pale: Baseball’s so-called black issues caused by its white problem

By Gordon Wittenmyer@GDubCub

I’m the problem.
If not the problem, then at least the issue.
Me, those who look like me, sound like me, view the world through a light-colored, male prism that sets agendas, makes rules and decides what’s mainstream or “normal” in American culture – or its subcultures, such as baseball.
“Middle-aged white men,” said Diamondbacks outfielder Adam Jones
---
And if the first step in solving a problem is to admit it exists, maybe it’s time that the next conversation on this issue begins there.
“It sucks, but you’ve got middle-aged white men telling everybody else what to do in the world,” Jones said. “I didn’t make that part up. That’s just what you see on TV. That’s what you see in real life. It’s history.”
It’s certainly baseball.
Does a day ever go by lately without an anti-white-male hit piece from a big American media source?

Thank you. This is it in a nut shell.

They should be careful for what they wish for. The race war they wished could happen but not the way they wished.
