Caitlin bends knee to woke mob.

INDIANAPOLIS — It took a minute. But the woke mob finally got her. Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark raised eyebrows the other day when she credited white privilege for her basketball stardom. The 22-year-old Iowa native, recently crowned Time Magazine’s “Athlete of the Year” for putting the WNBA (Woke Negroes Basketball Association) on the map, admitted outside vitriol about her skin pigmentation has taken its toll. ESPN’s Pat McAfee called Caitlin a “white bitch” as a term of endearment. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese said she’s experienced “a lot of racism” from Fever fans because of Caitlin. League MVP A’ja Wilson said Caitlin’s whiteness is a “huge thing” when it comes to her popularity. If you recall… Caitlin, drafted No. 1 overall, signed an 8-year $28 million endorsement deal with Nike — which includes her own signature shoe. It’s the biggest sponsorship in the history of women’s basketball, much to the chagrin of jealous Black players who didn’t receive a dime.
To compound matters, Caitlin is a heterosexual Christian in a league subjugated by lusty lesbians. She gets bullied and flagrantly fouled as a ramification. Caitlin is catching pure, unadulterated hell. It’s almost as if she was coerced into waving the white flag. “I want to say I’ve earned every single thing, but as a White person, there is privilege,” Caitlin said during an interview with Time.
“A lot of those players in the league that have been really good have been Black players. This league has kind of been built on them. The more we can appreciate that, highlight that, talk about that and then continue to have brands and companies invest in those players that have made this league incredible, I think it’s very important. I have to continue to try to change that. The more we can elevate Black women, that’s going to be a beautiful thing.”
Elevate Black women?
Look, the WNBA was launched in 1997.
The predominantly negro league has never turned a profit and has suffered losses every goddamn year.
Each franchise is subsidized by the NBA.
The bottom line is Black women had 27 years to make the WNBA a success and failed.
Now they’re pissed at Caitlin for single-handedly bringing about the league’s renaissance?
Somebody make it make sense.
A simple “thank you” would suffice.
As ‘Rookie of the Year,’ Caitlin has helped the WNBA draw historic attendance and television ratings.
Her Fever debut was the league’s most-watched game in 23 years with 2.11 million views on ESPN2.
Thanks to Caitlin, players no longer fly commercial.
Now, they take charter flights like most professional athletes.
The WNBA is movin’ on up like George & Weezy, and a white chick is primarily responsible.
Are you disappointed in Caitlin for selling out?
Do black players deserve preferential treatment?
Watch Caitlin apologize for being white.

Not all black women are insufferable!
She bent the knee and they still won’t accept her, just the way it is.
This is pathetic. She doesn’t owe them a damn thing. Stop pandering to be accepted. They don’t value what she stands for and she actually likes men; which is another reason she’s hated.
The black women will hate her still for her statement because it makes them look even more petty.
As a black man, I think this is a joke man. Let the girl play basketball ffs
As a black woman I just want to say that I’m tired of race being the focal point of every topic. This woman is undeniably a great athlete and it’s unfair that her accomplishments are being overshadowed by jealousy, hatred, pettiness, resentment and prejudice.
Damned if she do damned if she don’t. She stuck in between a rock and a hard place when all she wanna do is hoop.
As a black person… I am sorry Caitlin. These people are ridiculous.
Clark actually made me pay attention to the WNBA and honestly I was surprised how bad the women are. They miss several layups a game, They can barely shoot consistent 3s. Clark is exponentially much better than the whole WNBA and it being a predominately black league, the women obviously feel some type of way and going to give the white girl a hard time. It happens in the mens game but not with this much actual hate.
White people hate saying white privilege is a thing
It’s the fact that she’s changed the WNBA because she’s white. That’s the problem. There have been plenty of talented WNBA stars that went largely unrecognized. Caitlin Clark gets the recognition because she’s talented AND white. Just like Denzel didn’t get recognition globally until he played a gangster, people didn’t care about the WNBA until a talented white guard was playing.
I’ve never in my life seen an enterprise shoot itself in the foot more than the WNBA. The Golden Goose has landed and given the league its first real recognition and the league would rather live in its inauspicious past. It’s a ridiculous league and is nowhere near ready for the spotlight.
Caitlin is white and straight, apparently not WNBA type .
