…and the league is letting them get away with it, while the Axis sports media pretends not to notice.
Three years into her pro career, Caitlin Clark is a recognized superstar and a driver of WNBA attendance, merchandising and popularity. She is, however, a white heterosexual in a league dominated by black lesbians, so she has been targeted, attacked, bullied and injured out of, as Outkick recently put it, “a loathsome combination of race idolatry, jealousy, and territorialism.”
The outlet (now owned by Fox) writes,
“As Clark’s popularity grew during her rookie season, critics increasingly attributed it to “whiteness” rather than talent, charisma, or style of play. Commentators such as Jemele Hill argued that Clark’s appeal was inseparable from her being a straight White woman in a league made up primarily of Black and lesbian players. “We would all be very naive if we didn’t say race and her sexuality played a role in her popularity,” Hill told the Los Angeles Times in 2024.”
Hill is an anti-white racist and routinely enables others in her quest as regular Ethics Alarms readers know. For example, she claimed that Harvard’ incompetent, plagiarizing DEI president Claudine Gay was forced to resign because she was black, not because she embarrassed the university. [Incidentally, I am constantly confused because Jemele Hill is a black anti-white racist female sports commentator and Jamelle Bouie is a black anti-white racist male New York Times columnist. I know they are different people, but neither should be taken seriously. I apologize in advance if I mix them up, but I’m not going to lose any sleep over it.]
Clark was viewed as an outsider and an interloper on black, gay territory, so she was targeted from the beginning. Chennedy Carter hit her with a blindside hip and then entered a social media post encouraging other players to “hurt” her next time. (Baseball would suspend a player who did that.) DiJonai Carrington poked Clark in the eye during a playoff game later posted online accusing Clark of “white privilege.” Angel Reese committed several hard fouls against Clark and posted TikTok video mocking her as a “white girl afraid to catch the fade.” Nice. Baseball would suspend a player who did that, too.

The WNBA is a joke that needs to just go away. It’s an attempt by the NBA owners to have something to put in their empty arenas during the summer other than rock concerts. The WNBA game is unwatchable. Good high school boys’ basketball is actual basketball. The NBA owners are willing to lose money on the league (but not too much; they pay the players peanuts) in order to virtue signal. ESPN broadcasts WNBA games for the same reason. At some point, the NBA owners and ESPN will simply pull the plug. The losses won’t be worth the aggravation. Caitlin Clark should just retire or play in Europe. She doesn’t need the trouble. Let the black lesbians take the league down. You go girls. Assholes.
I say Clark should learn to play ball, not just score. Scoring so much as she does is mostly(even I can score 1/100 shots) because she has white privilege and the Black girls just let her because that’s what they’ve been culturally indoctrinated that they should let the White person have first place. What Clark does not understand is that the eye-jabbing, fist-throating, hip-bumping overtures from the black players are like the racist attack that Vance endured on his View interview recently. The girls just want to know if she can hang. Clark should go have a conversation with Joe Rogan and he can trach her to do an arm bat submission…. One snapped elbow and the girlz will calm down.
A situation where sarcasm is called for.
Reminiscent of Buddy Ryan famously saying of Chris Carter, “All he does is catch touchdowns.”
But seriously, once Clark has a confirmed assault and battery injury that requires recovery time, if she retaliates on the next assault and snaps an elbow, then the other gurlz will calm down because they know they will be next.
Then Clark’s team can sign the likes of Amanda Nunes, Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano and WNBA can be the goto crossover sport for the lady MMA fighters. It’ll be huuuge!
I barely watched before. I refuse to watch now.
Jemele Hill is a disgrace to the Times, but they have no honor anymore, so, surprised I am not. I intentionally don’t click on her columns or read anything she writes unless you or some other blog picks it up, and even then, I usually just read the blog’s take on her column.
I’ve attended two WNBA games. Both times, the audience was almost entirely male, and the topic of almost every conversation was, “How badly would these teams lose to a good boys high school team?” The consensus was that they would get slaughtered.
On the subject of Caitlin Clark, I have two opinions:
On the second opinion, I won’t go into great length, but I’ll point to just one piece of evidence – this page from basketball-reference.com, which lists the top 10 players year-by-year by PER, which is one of those opaque newfangled statistics that try to judge players’ overall quality:
https://www.basketball-reference.com/wnba/leaders/per_top_10.html
Clark has never been in the top 10. Her rating so far this season is 20.4, which is good, and her best yet, but would have qualified her for the top 10 only twice in the history of the league. The same is true with Win Shares, the other opaque new statistic, where her performance is pretty good but would never have come close to the top 10.
Her essential problem as a player is that she shoots way too much and misses way too many shots. She scores a lot of points but very inefficiently.
CC is the WNBA’s meal ticket. But in the end, who really cares. The WNBA is an unwatchable product. It is not a question of hate, its apathy.
“CC is the WNBA’s meal ticket.”
Something Lefty will NEVER acknowledge.
“But in the end, who really cares.”
Guilt-Sodden/Messiah Complex afflicted White Lefties, that’s who…and they care so much!
“The WNBA is an unwatchable product.”
Seems that there anti-White Thug thing’s attracting attention.
“It is not a question of hate, its apathy.”
Easy solution; Mandated Viewership.

I have to force myself to see beyond the ‘surface’ of events like this, and to get to the truthful essence. So here it is …
What the average White American Conservative wants is that race-difference disappear from consideration. You have to start with the facts and then work forward: prior to 1965 the US was a White nation and was seen and understood as such. Then, God only knows how and why, it was determined (by social engineers/academics, by America’s business class?) that the demography be transformed. From about 93% White supermajority it is now somewhere around 65%. And — here is the good news! — there will come a time when the White population will no longer be a majority but a minority.
Now we return to the doctrinal position of the American Conservative. She or he can say nothing about this! Can you imagine someone (you!) openly advocating that average Whites develop a countermanding consciousness to the reality that they are being replaced?
The struggle on the basket court is symptomatic and symbolic of the core, underlying issue of replacement. I.e. the Replacement Theory of Renaud Camus (French theorist).
In the Conservative Fairytale of New Americanism, any consciousness of race, any self-valuation that is holistic and culturally affirming, is defined as thoughtcrime. Full stop. There is (one might say) hope though. Attitudes are changing. However, it is kept rather secret. The face presented to the public remains the same but polling indicates that people are beginning to think (internally) differently.
From polling done (or overseen) by the Homeland Institute:
57.2% of Republicans, 30.1% of Independents, and 33% of all respondents want America to be 60% white like in 2018, or even whiter.
43.7% of Republicans and 22.2% of Independents would support or strongly support a candidate who promised to change immigration policy with the goal of eventually reaching an 80% white supermajority.
58.4% of Republicans and 29.7% of Independents would at least somewhat agree with a political candidate who proposed policies to preserve the white majority, up from 50.7% and 27.6% in November, 2024.
57.4% of Republicans and 33.4% of Independents strongly or somewhat agree that changing demographics pose a threat to white Americans and their culture and values, up from 51.8% and 24.5% in 2024.
7% of white Republicans answered that preserving the white majority was the most important political issue for them, 20.8% very important, and 27.8% somewhat important, up from 3.4%, 18.9%, and 22.9% in 2024.
Going further: Straight people, straight American citizens, must be seen, should be seen, as having superior cultural and social value than compared to any person or citizen who defines themselves as homosexual. They are not ‘equal’. Greater respect, value and privilege must be granted to non-homosexuals. I.e. normal people and couples.
I have no idea who determined that there are teams dominated by Black lesbians, or even that the animus underlying the unsportsmanlike assaults are motivated by lesbians angry with straights, or Black lesbians with resentment of White straight girls, but if that is happening, then in an empowered, self-affirming culture the game would be stopped by the fans. I don’t know, maybe they would rush the court and put an end to the entire game? But behind the game are “vast business interests”, and indeed everything sanctioned in America is purveyed to citizenry via the vehicles of Social Engineering: the business class, the constellations of media corporations, in collusion with government officials and entities.
Late Americanism — the social doctrine as such — is a construct. And it must be deconstructed.
I cannot stress enough how the transvaluation of heterosexuality and the ascent of homosexuality — queer activism — is a root of social subversion in a range of other areas. The ‘queering of America’ and queering in general, is also a tenet in deranged Late Americanism.
