Recently Michael Wilbon, sports journalist, caused a stir with his reaction to Bruce Pearl stepping down as Auburn's basketball head coach. Wilbon said he was glad and he hoped the school pressured him to leave. Why did Wilbon say this? Because Pearl became more vocal about his conservative Christian beliefs. Wilbon called that divisive.
This response caused some more conservative sport reporters to challenge Wilbon's take. They claim that Wilbon isn't saying keep politics out of sport, as he constantly cheers for pushed liberal politics.
I've seen a great many leftist respond calling the right leaning reporters hypocritical for cheering on Pearl's positions, while saying keep politics out of sports. This seems like a tactic of the left. Shift the Overton sharply to the left, the right responds can't we leave politics out of things, they are mocked and accussed of privilege. Eventually some righty will push back a little and the left will cry, see you said keep politics out of things but hear you are supporting politics.
And it usually works.
The reactions to the killing of Charlie Kirk hopefully woke up normies to the fact that these people generally do not argue in good faith. Words are magic spells to them etc etc.
The only way to win is to fight fire with fire. Leftoids will constantly work to undermine anyone in any position of power or authority, even if it is as trivial as a basketball coach, if they are known to espouse traditional or conservative values. The same must be done in reverse.
I recently saw a clip of Destiny on Pierce Morgan. Andrew Wilson was holding Destiny’s feet to the fire regarding leftist political violence, and Destiny implied that Trump was somehow responsible for the (paraphrasing) greatest civil unrest in American history.
Because the George Floyd riots occurred during Trump’s presidency.
So in the minds of leftists, the right is still responsible for leftist violence even if it’s by din of winning elections and implementing conservative policy. When leftists lose elections and chimp out, that violence is still essentially “right wing” because it was “caused” by conservatives legally attaining political and cultural power.
Literally nothing is ever leftists’ fault. They are metaphysically good, so anything they do wrong is actually the fault of their enemies somehow.
These are the strategies of children. Such people are not capable of governance. Only tyranny.
