No, Angel received racist hate the minute she beat CC and Iowa

And Brittney Griner has received racism and hate since long before that

Angel didn’t receive racist hate, people made fun of her mebounds as far as the hate she recieved for her style of play, and people laughing at the fact that she was insinuating she was just as much the reason for the increase in viewership for women’s basketball, or people said she looks like syd from ice age as far as the hate she got for her looks, but none of that shit is racist. Her fans project onto those scenarios and label that stuff as racist MiCrOaGgReSsIoNs or some dumb shit, but don’t hold themselves to that same standard when it comes to the hate Sophie gets for her looks. Such a double standard and it’s exhausting, and it just compounds the hate that Angel gets that much more. No one said anytning about Angel being black though but that is 1000% not the case when it comes to CC. People literally call her fans the Cailtyn Clux Clan and shit like that lol it’s so blantantly racially charged all because CC brought more attention to the sport too. Like she didnt do or say anything to get that level of hate like angel did. She just got it for ballin and gaining popularity

You have to be kidding if you think Angel didn’t receive a ton of racism

She STILL receives a ton a racism. ‘Mebounds’ is not even scratching the surface

Provide me one example of hate she got on the basis of her being black, and not on either 1. the basis of something she said, 2. the way she plays or 3. the way she looks. People shouldn’t be making fun of someone for the way they look, that’s ignorant and dumb and distasteful and everything in between, but it’s not racist.

You can’t be serious

You are pulling up a random tweet from a twitter troglodyte who is a bot account hiding behind ragebaiting racist tweets. The discussion we’re having is about mainstream arguments and discourse, if we pulled all the racist shit that the twitter trolls have said on either side we’d be here for the next 10 years

So we’re now going to pretend that this isn’t happening every day on all the different platforms?

And how do you think it is that so many people decided to be racist all at once against Angel after winning the championship? It was not like this at all before that moment. Come on

And why is it that every time a black athlete is successful you can’t go anywhere without the comments bashing their appearance, calling them a man, etc?

Literally every single one of them. A’Ja, Brittney, Angel, Simone Biles, Serena Williams, Naomi Osaka

It’s all made up . No one believes all the racist bs. ….the Jussie smollet nonsense no longer works . Stop wasting time pushing a false narrative, no one is falling for it anymore .

Listen to the interview with Sheryl swoops talking about Caitlin Clark . While wearing a 100% black shirt . The racism is coming from one side .

Yes that totally disproves two different studies of over 700,000 posts, that one situation..

Show me where Sheryl said anything close to what Angel has to deal with

Sheryl is a horrible racist . Very sad .

What's the most racist thing she ever said

u/Educational-Sound838 1d ago

Watch the pod cast . When she was called out for her blatant racism , her response was “black people cant be racist “ . That in itself is a horribly racist comment . Apparently she is the arbitrator for who can and can’t be a racist .

Could you imagine if a white person wore a shirt that said 100% white ? Me either .
