- 0:03Speaker 1: Social media erupts over Britney Griner's alleged racial comment about
- 0:08Speaker 1: Kitlyn Clark. Clark has been the target of numerous attacks
- 0:12Speaker 1: which some have perceived as racial. As racial, So if
- 0:17Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark said anything that could be perceived by someone anywhere,
- 0:24Speaker 1: halfway around the world who wanted to bother to tweet
- 0:27Speaker 1: about it, it would be absolute from page news. She'd
- 0:31Speaker 1: be punished, Everybody would be outraged, She'd be a white
- 0:34Speaker 1: supremacist blah blah blah blah blah. But because it's against her,
- 0:37Speaker 1: she's white. The league is like ninety eight percent black lesbians,
- 0:43Speaker 1: so it's fine. Double standards again, those double standards again.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Social media erupted this weekend over an alleged racial comment
- 0:54Speaker 1: w NBA player Britney Griner made about opponent Caitlin Clark,
- 0:57Speaker 1: who is white. Confirmed reports floated on x and Instagram,
- 1:02Speaker 1: highlighting video of Grinder after she fouled out of Friday's
- 1:06Speaker 1: game against the Indiana Indian Indiana Fever or it's not
- 1:09Speaker 1: the Indian Fever, is it? I think this requires a
- 1:13Speaker 1: copy editor here. I think Indiana Fever. I guess the
- 1:17Speaker 1: team Clark plays for Grinder is alleged to have made
- 1:20Speaker 1: a comment about Clark and the referee being efing white girls.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Effing white girls. I wonder if we got some. There's
- 1:28Speaker 1: that Brittany Grinder there. Some people have speculated that Brittany
- 1:35Speaker 1: Grinder may not be a Britney and more of a
- 1:38Speaker 1: Bradley or something like that. But let's just take a
- 1:41Speaker 1: look first before we get into that. Here we go,
- 1:44Speaker 1: so you can't hear they're talking over this, so you
- 1:47Speaker 1: have to read lips, but sounds like she's saying efing
- 1:50Speaker 1: white girls. Yeah, it kind of looks like that. It
- 1:55Speaker 1: kind of looks like that Brittany Griner. This is a
- 2:01Speaker 1: quote here. This is an ex post Brittany Griner, whom
- 2:05Speaker 1: Biden traded for the Merchant of Death. Remember the Merchant
- 2:09Speaker 1: of Death? His name was I think Victor bout right
- 2:12Speaker 1: international arms dealer called Caitlin Clark and the white female
- 2:18Speaker 1: ref trash efing white girls after getting fouled out. OutKick
- 2:23Speaker 1: reporter Bobby Burreck posted captioning the video, So again, if
- 2:29Speaker 1: this were the opposite that said she suspended, it's a
- 2:33Speaker 1: huge international well, definitely a huge national scandal. Big deal.
- 2:39Speaker 1: She's the worst person ever for saying something very mild,
- 2:42Speaker 1: milder than that, not even something that only like like
- 2:46Speaker 1: one out of a million people could possibly honestly interpret
- 2:52Speaker 1: as being a royslast, right, it would be a completely
- 2:56Speaker 1: different story. But you know, because well obviously the WNBA
- 3:01Speaker 1: is woke, right, the players are woke, the management is woke.
- 3:05Speaker 1: The whole thing around it is woke. I mean, it
- 3:07Speaker 1: is a league of black lesbians. It's going to be woke.
- 3:11Speaker 1: There's no there's no way around that, just the way
- 3:15Speaker 1: that it is. So Britney Griner, Brittney Griner was traded
- 3:21Speaker 1: for this guy, Victor Bout, the Merchant of Death. So
- 3:26Speaker 1: Griner had been arrested on drug charges at a Moscow
- 3:29Speaker 1: airport for almost ten months, while a Bout has been
- 3:31Speaker 1: in US custody since two thousand and eight. So drug charges.
- 3:35Speaker 1: So she was in Russia and she had illegal drugs,
- 3:39Speaker 1: and she was arrested because that's something that a sane
- 3:43Speaker 1: person does. Griner, thirty two, was detained by Russian authorities
- 3:47Speaker 1: in February twenty twenty two after finding a cannabis vape
- 3:51Speaker 1: cartridge in her luggage while attempting to exit the country
- 3:55Speaker 1: as Russia prepared to invade Ukraine. I just feel like
- 3:59Speaker 1: just common sense should dictate that when you're in Russia,
- 4:04Speaker 1: don't break Russian laws. I've got a feeling that if
- 4:07Speaker 1: you get caught, it's gonna go really badly for you,
- 4:10Speaker 1: really badly, especially if you're American and you can be
- 4:14Speaker 1: used as a political tool, as a bargaining chip to
- 4:18Speaker 1: get somebody like I don't know, like the Merchant of
- 4:21Speaker 1: Death in exchange for the WNBA all Star pleaded guilty
- 4:25Speaker 1: to drug possession charges in July twenty twenty two and
- 4:28Speaker 1: was sentenced to nine years and a forced labor camp
- 4:32Speaker 1: in Mordovia. I've never even heard of that, but it
- 4:35Speaker 1: sounds terrifying. So let's see. So for that guy who
- 4:40Speaker 1: is the Merchant of Death, the Merchant of Death, so
- 4:44Speaker 1: that was of course Biden did that trade. The exchange
- 4:48Speaker 1: came with much pushback from Americans, believing about to be
- 4:52Speaker 1: a danger to the nation. So there are some who
- 4:56Speaker 1: think that the Merchant of Death might be a d
- 5:00Speaker 1: to the nation, and maybe it wasn't really a great
- 5:03Speaker 1: trade off for the w NBA player that broke Russian
- 5:09Speaker 1: drug laws and got caught. So yeah, I don't know.
- 5:13Speaker 1: There is Britney Grinder. Some people say that she's a
- 5:18Speaker 1: handsome woman, very handsome woman. Some people think that Some
- 5:25Speaker 1: people think that Britney Griner is a very masculine woman
- 5:30Speaker 1: who plays in the WNBA. Some people think that Britney
- 5:34Speaker 1: Grinder is a very masculine man that plays in the WNBA.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I don't know what. I don't know. I don't know.
- 5:42Speaker 1: I have no idea what's going on here. Also, I
- 5:45Speaker 1: don't care is the other thing? I also don't care.
- 5:49Speaker 1: So there's that, but I don't know. I mean video
- 5:53Speaker 1: of Britney Grinder shooting hoops by a pool. Some people
- 5:56Speaker 1: are saying that's a man. I don't know. We know
- 5:59Speaker 1: that it's either a very masculine woman or a very
- 6:05Speaker 1: masculine man. So it's one of those two. There we
- 6:09Speaker 1: have it, There we have it. It's double standards all around.
- 6:13Speaker 1: A lot has been done for Britney Griner. A lot
- 6:17Speaker 1: of people don't think that she should have been exchanged
- 6:20Speaker 1: for the International Merchant of Death. That maybe wasn't a
- 6:24Speaker 1: fair trade off. But I'm sure she's glad to be home.
- 6:29Speaker 1: And yeah, so the WNBA is determined to destroy itself essentially,
- 6:34Speaker 1: that's what this story really is right. They finally just
- 6:38Speaker 1: get this godsend, right, this marketable star who's really good,
- 6:44Speaker 1: who's like the best player of the generation, once in
- 6:46Speaker 1: a generation player. And because they are so stupid and
- 6:51Speaker 1: narcissistic and bigoted, they can't enjoy it. They can't see
- 6:56Speaker 1: the benefit. They just wanted to go away because jealousy,
- 7:01Speaker 1: narcissism and bigotry. Because it's because she's white, obviously, right,
- 7:07Speaker 1: and it's no secret that Caitlin Clark is not liked
- 7:10Speaker 1: by the other players in the league. They seem to
- 7:13Speaker 1: be constantly trying to injure her. I mean here, even
- 7:16Speaker 1: Steven A. Smith Black w NBA players resent Caitlin Clark
- 7:20Speaker 1: attention because she's popular and also because she's white. You'd
- 7:25Speaker 1: think the league owners would at least have some common sense,
- 7:28Speaker 1: But here w NBA owner questions why Caitlin Clark was
- 7:32Speaker 1: named Time Athlete of the Year, suggests it will cause racism,
- 7:37Speaker 1: because what doesn't these days here WNBA players are fed
- 7:41Speaker 1: up with the Caitlin Clark chaos. I don't know, maybe
- 7:45Speaker 1: the fact that people are actually at least more people
- 7:48Speaker 1: are paying attention these days, you know, maybe it's a
- 7:52Speaker 1: glass half full situation. Even though Caitlin Clark is white,
- 7:57Speaker 1: and of course because she's white, it must all just
- 8:00Speaker 1: be her fault and her privilege or something. How about
- 8:03Speaker 1: this from USA Today opinion, Caitlin Clark needs to call
- 8:08Speaker 1: out the toxic segment of her fan base because equity
- 8:13Speaker 1: or something. I mean, look, sure I'm toxic, but I'm
- 8:17Speaker 1: also not a fan. I mean, Caitlin Clark even pathetically
- 8:21Speaker 1: bent the knee and apologized for her white privilege. I
- 8:25Speaker 1: wanted that get her absolutely nothing, which is why you
- 8:29Speaker 1: should never play their game because you can't win. Now.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Looming behind all of this is the fact that the
- 8:36Speaker 1: WNBA is not profitable and loses a significant amount of
- 8:41Speaker 1: money each year. Let's see, for the current season, it's
- 8:44Speaker 1: estimated to lose between forty and fifty million. You almost
- 8:47Speaker 1: start to wonder to yourself, why is anybody funding this?
- 8:51Speaker 1: So there you have it, incredible stupidity. At some point,
- 8:55Speaker 1: the NBA needs to come to its senses and say,
- 8:57Speaker 1: We're not funding this anymore. Why are we giving them?
- 9:00Speaker 1: Why are we giving these bitches, like you know something,
- 9:05Speaker 1: some ridiculous sum of money. Why are we giving them?
- 9:08Speaker 1: They don't even appreciate it right, they're unwilling to even
- 9:13Speaker 1: they're unwilling to just be reasonable, like for the benefit
- 9:18Speaker 1: of their own careers. Like if they refuse to even
- 9:22Speaker 1: just be reasonable, right for the benefit for their own benefit,
- 9:27Speaker 1: the benefit of their league, I mean, what's the point
- 9:31Speaker 1: cut them off? Anyway. That's all I'm going to say
- 9:34Speaker 1: about that. Please like, share and subscribe. Subscribing really helps
