Man Beats Man for Women’s Pool Championship

Women’s sports are moving beyond interloping sexually deranged men smugly defeating women. We have reached the inevitable stage of men competing against other men.

Outkick reported yesterday:

When Ultimate Pool crowns a women’s champion for the Pro Series event on Sunday, the winner will be a biological male. That’s because both the finalists, Harriet Haynes and Lucy Smith, are males who “identify” as women.

The guy calling himself “Harriet” ended up winning.

The winner of the event receives 1,800 pounds (about $2,320) and second place gets 900 pounds (about $1,160), according to the Ultimate Pool website. The rest of the top finishers (they pay a total of 16 places) receive 2,700 pounds COMBINED. That means that Haynes and Smith will receive as much money as the 14 women they defeated.

“Harriet” has gone to court to bully his way into women’s pool, suing the English Blackball Pool Federation for not letting him compete as if he were female. Yet he whimpers to The Independent,

“I’ve never really considered myself a trailblazer. I’m just a woman who is trying to live my life, and all I want to do is just be treated the same as any other woman.”

I can sympathize. I’m just an aardvark who is trying to live my life the same as other aardvarks. Yet unlike other aardvarks, I am required to pay taxes — just because I happen to be a trans-aardvark who was assigned human at birth.

Profiles in Countermoonbattery: Stephanie Turner

Fencer Stephanie Turner is the Rosa Parks of meaningful feminism, taking a stand against the eradication of women’s sports by refusing to compete against a cross-dressing man named Redmond Sullivan.

Via Daily Mail:

After refusing to compete, Turner was issued a ‘blackcard’ by fencing officials – which suspended her from the competition.

The public reacted with disgust. However,

USA Fencing has issued a statement justifying its decision while supporting Sullivan, 20, and the inclusion of trans athletes in women’s sports.

USA Fencing wants to “create inclusive, safe spaces.” Just not for women.

An alternant organization that will allow women to compete against other women only is clearly needed.

Transgender lunacy has converted Turner from a Democrat to a Republican. She asks,

‘That just opened the door for me to start listening more to the other side, really. Because if you’re willing to lie to me and tell me that a man can become a woman, then I wonder what else could you be lying to me about?’

This question should also be asked of the liberal establishment media that has been propping up both the Democratic Party and LGBTism.

Time Magazine Angle on Super Sunday

Super Sunday is a suitable time to reflect on how global warming is affecting the NFL — according to Time, which reports that 4 months ago the temperature reached 98° on the day of a game, compelling a team to wear white pants “to reflect more heat away.” From the story:

The league’s Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles won’t face anything like that punishment during this Sunday’s Super Bowl, which will take place in New Orleans, where the forecast high for game day is 75°F. And, in any case, the game will be played in an indoor stadium. Either way, there is no escaping the fact that the world is steadily—and dangerously—heating up.

We are told once again that the climate slightly fluctuating like it always has represents an “existential crisis.”

Moonbats only know one song: moonbattery. So they keep singing it, even as it becomes increasingly obvious that no one wants to hear it anymore.

When Trump was asked how he feels about Time running a cover story alleging that Democrats’ bugbear Elon Musk is actually running the White House, he expressed surprise that the liberal establishment platform is still in business:

Time dinosaurs missed a scoop; they should have broken the story themselves that they have not yet lumbered all the way to the tarpits.

Not Even NFL Is Leftist Enough for USA Today

Is the NFL losing its laser-like focus on inflicting leftist politics on fans who just what to watch a football game in peace? USA Today thinks so and is not pleased:

Less than a day after Roger Goodell so eloquently amplified the NFL’s commitment to DEI to kick off another ultimate week of hype and excellence came word that the most popular sports league in the nation has decided to scrap its “End Racism” slogan from a marquee end zone spot during Super Bowl 59.

What a fumble.

“Choose Love” and “It Takes All Of Us” will be stenciled at the back of the end zones for the Super Bowl. Not good enough. USA Today demands that the USSR-style intrusive messaging explicitly state “End Racism.”

By now everyone knows that “End Racism” does not apply to the only prevalent form of racism in our country — the racism against whites that has become systematic under DEI. “End Racism” means “End Resistance to Race-Based Leftism.”

Super Bowl viewers will be subjected to an irritating ad featuring the ubiquitous Snoop Dogg, reminding us to hate hate:

This probably won’t be good enough for USA Today either. Even if it reminds us to focus on Cultural Marxism, the ad is not a sufficiently explicit endorsement of Critical Race Theory to placate the Thought Police.

Caitlin Clark Learns Not to Apologize to Woke Mob

As if in exchange for the being named Time’s Athlete of the Year, Caitlin Clark embarrassingly prostrated herself before the woke mob by endorsing the CRT concept of “white privilege.” For validating their hostility toward her, she reaped the predictable reward from race thugs — a kick in the teeth:

Washington Mystics owner Sheila Johnson spoke out against Time magazine for naming Caitlin Clark “Athlete of the Year” in an interview with CNN Sport on Friday, suggesting that the publication should have given the award to the entire WNBA.

Unlike Clark, Johnson is racially correct. She cofounded BET.

Johnson even suggested the decision to give Clark the honor would incite feelings of “racism” within the league.

How the belligerently racist WNBA could possibly hate whites any more than it already does is unclear.

Lies Johnson,

“I’ve seen so many players of color that are equally as talented, and they never got the recognition they should have.”

Which players are “equally as talented” is left unspecified. Suffice it to say that if a Caucasian has her accomplishments honored, it must be white privilege.

Johnson has directly benefited from the Caitlin Clark Effect:

The Mystics’ season finale against Clark’s Indiana Fever was moved from the Mystics’ home venue, the Entertainment and Sports Arena with just 4,200 seats, to the Wizards’ venue, the Capital One Arena, which has a maximum capacity of 20,356 for basketball games. As a result, the Sept. 19 game between the Fever and Mystics was the most-attended WNBA regular season game in history, with 20,711 fans in attendance.

But there will be no gratitude for someone who has committed white privilege by succeeding while Caucasian.

Moonbats have another reason to hate Caitlin Clark:

Journalist Jemele Hill insisted it was “naive” to say that Clark’s race as a White person, and sexuality as a straight woman, did not play into her popularity in the WNBA, where the vast majority of players are Black and many are lesbian, during an interview with the Los Angeles Times in May. Hill also insisted that Clark’s popularity with those attributes is “problematic.”

Liberals love diversity — but not so much that they can tolerate successful whites and non-lesbians in the WNBA.

California Educrats: XX ≠ XY = Swastika

Screeching that Donald Trump is Hitler worked so well for moonbats, they are applying the same strategy to inject sexually deranged boys into girls’ locker rooms and force girls to compete against them in California’s Riverside Unified School District:

[T]wo girls, Kaitlyn and Taylor, are cross-country runners for Martin Luther King High School and wore T-shirts displaying the messages “Save Girls Sports” and “It’s Common Sense. XX ≠ XY” to practice.

Kaitlyn and Taylor’s families are now suing the school after its officials allegedly forced the girls to remove and cover their shirts, told them that wearing the shirts was like “wearing a swastika in front of Jewish students,” and moved the girls to the Junior Varsity cross-country team.

Real girls get moved to junior varsity to make room for politically preferred transsexuals.

Exploiting Sports to Push Sexual Perversion

Under totalitarian moonbattery, every aspect of American culture is subverted so as to advance the liberal agenda. For example, sports are used to homosexualize youth:

Enter Q&Athlete, a project that aims to connect young LGBTQ+ athletes with out pro athletes, run by queer employees at UNINTERRUPTED, a sports media platform founded by LeBron James and Maverick Carter. The website, which bills itself as a “safe space portal for queer athletes’ voices,” allows people to submit questions anonymously. …

Each week in October, two athletes will be answering questions through the portal, starting with retired Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy, who was one of the first action-sports stars to come out as gay, as well as Jacksonville Jaguars coach Kevin Maxen, who is believed to be the first out gay male coach in major American men’s sports. Future athletes include swimmer Schuyler Bailar, Olympian runner Nikki Hiltz, and former pro soccer player Gaby Vincent.

The term for mentoring youth to engage in perverted sexual activity is grooming. It used to be frowned upon. But then came moonbattery.

Athlete Suspended for Making Sign of Cross

They aren’t throwing people in prison for being Christian yet — but it’s getting close:

Serbian athlete Nemanja Majdov, 28, was told by the International Judo Federation (IJF) that he has been banned from competing until early next year including for ‘having shown a clear religious sign when entering the field of play’ in breach of the organisation’s rules.

He committed the infraction while competing in the Paris Olympics in July and was caught red-handed:

The IJF explains why Christian gestures are banned:

“As an international umbrella organisation, it is our duty to make sure that all our stakeholders and especially the athletes, feel respected and accepted, in all our events and activities.”

Intolerance is tolerance. Anyone who doesn’t agree is a bigot.

Colin Kaepernick as Olympic Flag-Bearer

“Evil people always support each other,” said Alexander Solzhenitsyn. “That is their chief strength.” This applies to athletes who are known less for their skill than their obnoxious moonbattery:

“I would love to see Colin [Kaepernick] be able to represent America in an Olympics. I think that would be an unbelievably special moment,” [deafeningly LGBT soccer player Megan Rapinhoe] said. “He’s my flag-bearer. I think that would be really incredible to have that representation of America also be front and center at an Olympics. That would be really cool.”

In all seriousness, she wants a jerk primarily known for his public displays of hatred for the USA to be the US flag-bearer.

Kaepernick’s mediocre athletic career may not be over:

Kaepernick hasn’t played since 2016, but would love to be part of the 2028 US Olympic flag football team.

Any opportunity to kneel contemptuously when our national anthem is played would be welcome by either Kaepernick or Rapinoe. Serving as a flag-bearer might even give him a chance to drag Old Glory on the ground.

Kwame Brown Escapes Democrat Plantation

Looks like Democrats have maxed out their race card:

Former NBA #1 overall pick Kwame Brown is blasting black celebrity ‘gatekeepers” whom he claims are “shaming” people into voting for Vice President Kamala Harris because she is black.

Not as black as Asian, but part black anyway, as well as part Irish slaveholder. But as the great Harry Callahan might ask, what difference does it make?

The former Laker adds, “Kamala’s skin color ain’t gonna pay for our groceries.”

Without race-baiting a.k.a. cultural Marxism, all they have left is classic economic Marxism —which has killed many tens of millions by starvation. Now might be a good time to start stockpiling food.

Transsexual Subverts Paralympics

Not even the Paralympics are safe from the transsexual war on women’s sports:

[“Valentina”] Petrillo won a whopping 11 national titles in visually-impaired categories as a man. Last summer, the runner took bronze in both the women’s 200 and 400 meters at the Para Athletics World Championships.

Petrillo, 50, told BBC Sport that competing in the games, which kick off on August 28 in Paris, would be an “important symbol of inclusion.”

Hats off to Mr. Petrillo for demonstrating what the word “inclusion” means.

Next, women’s events in the Paralympics will include perfectly able-bodied guys who decide to identify as handicapped.

Cars to Be Banned for Los Angeles Olympics

After the blasphemous LGBT parody of the Last Summer and the criminal spectacle of men being award gold medals for punching out women, it seems unlikely that any city hosting the Olympics will outdo Paris for moonbattery. But with Karen Bass at the helm, Los Angeles will try. Automobiles are haram in the liberal religion, because they allow independence and because there is something inherently masculine about them; therefore, traffic issues will be resolved by banning them.

Barks Bass:

“We’re already working to create jobs by expanding our public transportation system in order for us to have a no-car Games.”

Whenever leftists inflict something particularly onerous, they pretend it will somehow create the jobs they deliberately destroy through minimum wage, hyper-regulation, overtaxation, et cetera so as to maximize government dependency.

Bass said public transportation will be the only way to access the Los Angeles venues…

In case you were short on reasons not to attend the Olympics, now you’re set.

Paris has been lauded for how accessible the Games have been, with nearly every venue reachable by Metro, commuter train, tram or bus. Los Angeles has bus and light rail systems but only two subway lines, public transit that pales in scope to metropolitan cities such as Paris, London and New York.

But the important thing is that Bass says she is building “a greener Los Angeles.”

IOC President Cancels Chromosomes

International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach has addressed the outrage over Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting, who were disqualified to compete as women by the International Boxing Association because they are men, but who have been allowed to win Olympic gold medals by beating up women:

“It is not as easy as some may in these cultural wars may now want to portray it that XX or XY is the clear distinction between the men and women. This is scientifically not true anymore. And, therefore, these two are women. And they have the right to participate in the women’s competition. This has nothing to do with inclusion in any way.”

The word “inclusion” isn’t getting much traction these days, because people have begun to figure out what it now means. So Bach prefers the word “justice” to describe what he and his kind are inflicting on female athletes.

Chromosomes and biology itself have been canceled:

“If somebody is presenting us a scientifically solid system – how to identify man and woman – we’re the first ones to do it. We do not like this uncertainty.”

What uncertainty? He just stated as a fact that Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting are women even though they are men. Gender and age are to be determined by whatever it says on athletes’ passports.

The obscene spectacle of sociopaths beating the hell out of women in front of a cheering audience and liberals calling it a sport for the greater glory of LGBTism will continue.

It would be difficult to overstate the depravity, malice, and sheer lunacy of the global woke ruling class.

Woman Lasts 46 Seconds vs. Male Boxer

Just how rotten does someone have to be to want to watch a man punching out a woman? As rotten as the moonbats running the Olympics:

[Imane] Khelif, an Algerian who failed gender eligibility tests at the 2023 World Championships, forced [his] Italian opponent, Angela Carini, to withdraw from their opening-round bout in 46 seconds Thursday.

Khelif is an a-hole of the male persuasion upon whom the media has bestowed female pronouns because he discovered he is more likely to win medals in the Olympics if he competes as a woman.

A furious Carini was left in tears and retreated to her corner after getting hit twice in the face by Khelif.

Punching a woman in the face is stunning and brave if a transsexual does it. Well, stunning anyway.

[Carini] yelled “this is unjust” at her corner and slammed her headgear on the canvas as the match in the 66-kilogram division was called off.

Promoting the LGBT agenda at the expense of decency and sanity is a matter of social justice. When has social justice ever been just?
