Travers Supports Trans Kids!

I HATE it when people say “the culture wars” or “the discourse” are ruining the WNBA. BE PRECISE. Right-wing fascists are introducing misogyny and bigotry through their narratives and demands, in an effort to delegitimize an organization full of popular black women who vocally champion inclusivity.

Hey fellow middle-aged White guys, if you're a bball fan like me, you're probably getting tons of anti-black, anti-trans, anti-women coded WNBA videos algorithmically forced on you. Go ahead and skip those clips, they are stupid. Go to a game or watch on tv. It's so good. Great fans, great athletes.

Thank you Ms. Jemelle Hill. Ms. Hill, formally of ESPN, has pointed out that all this men playing in the WNBA bullshit is part of the Heritage Foundation’s plan to delegitimize women’s sports and Title IX. The goal of Project 2025 and Christian Nationalism is to keep women barefoot and pregnant.

The WNBA is basically a US woman. After finally beginning to win a decades long fight for survival, respect and autonomy she lands in the crosshairs of the right wing manosphere’s relentless attempts to shut her down by projecting onto her it’s endless list of grievances and insecurities. #Exhausted
