I've seen multiple articles bemoaning that Copper Flagg may garner attention because white Americans will want to see a white American player. These people constantly talking about representation are unhappy if those rules are applied to white Americans.

There's not a ton of black American players in the MLB and there's a congressional committee to 'solve' the problem. The hypocrisy is off the chart.

Only non-whites are allowed to enjoy seeing themselves represented in the things they invented.

The business model revolves around white people accepting that the majority of the players are black. When that consensus narrative breaks apart, the business model unravels. That's why they're going after white tribalism.

If you haven’t caught on, basketball and other failing sports are using racial drama to try and bring back white viewers. The NBA finals had the worst viewership since 2007. They had a 9% drop in viewership since last year alone. This is why I made the post about bernays a few days ago. They’re selling you a music room (racial drama) to make you buy the piano (white basketball player).

Blacks don’t like seeing Whites succeed in sports. They think since they’ve infested most of them for decades that they own it and it belongs to them.

You can only sell all-Black teams to all-White audiences for so long until Whites don’t feel they’re represented anymore. We’re at that point now.

Where there articles like this back in Larry Bird’s day?

I remember when Isiah Thomas said if Larry Bird was black people would consider him a 'good' player and not a HOFer, and no one would cover him in the press.

All the hype around Cooper Flagg was manufactured by talking heads sports shows to prop up Duke and the ACC.

Then the GMs and owners of every NBA team bought into the hype too. 18 year old white boys NEVER go first overall in the draft.

Representation! Finally more diversity in the NBA!

forgetting Larry Bird, Dirk Nowitzki, Andrei Kirilenko, Peja Stojakovic...
