But but but no one is forcing you to watch the game! How does something offend you if you don’t watch it?

Logic is thrown out the window when it’s the woke crowd.

If somehow they manage to get the chop "canceled" it will have the greatest Streisand Effect throughout the Braves fanbase.

The Chop will become even bigger than it already is since we know there are white morons out there crying over it.

Why is SI still in business? The drag queens in swimwear should have been the final nail in their coffin.

Articles like this make me so happy to know just how shitty these journalist's salaries are


The salaries are shitty because the profession is incredibly diluted due to the prevalence of the internet. It is not very difficult or financially burdensome for anyone to get content published.

Legacy media (such as SI in this instance) simply can't bring in the revenue they could pre-internet. So they can only hire people willing to work for peanuts to be their writers. The marketplace tells these people their services aren't all that valuable (otherwise they would be making FAR more money). So they have to physiologically supplement their low monetary income with an over-inflated sense of self worth. "Sure I only make $25k a year and can only afford to live with 3 roommates in an 800 sq foot loft in a quasi-sketchy part of Brooklyn, but I am VERY important to society."

That over-inflated sense of self worth is necessary for their self esteem. Otherwise, the objective and logical part of their brain would say busting arse to get content out for $25k a year just isn't worth it.

there is some irony here considering this thread is all white people telling people to not be offended


No one is telling anyone to "not be offended." Whether one is offended or not is WHOLLY subjective. What the people in this thread are saying is we constantly have white people writing hyperbolic stories about just how offensive some team mascot is even though there does not appear to be some large amount of care or even consideration by the people who, ostensibly, should be the ones offended.

6 aggrieved Native American decedents on twitter probably isn't representative of a population of probably a few million people...the overwhelming majority of whom have far more important daily concerns to give even the slightest of shits about whether or not a baseball team in Atlanta should be called the Braves.

The part about a largely white crowd is also funny, it’s almost as if over 70% of the population is white and baseball is not the choice of sport for most minorities in America. These people are actually just fricking stupid. This bitch probably couldn’t tell you what the basic rules of any sport are.

Nothing changed from last week to this week. Let me check the schedule to see where game 3 is, oh it’s in Atlanta, must be time for a white Dim to be offended by something that doesn’t concern him

It’s a literal religion to these people. You can’t reason with people like that. Just like you can’t tell a Christian that God doesn’t exist, you can’t tell a woke liberal that racism doesn’t exist in every facet of American life.
