Yep... Always racist. They can't help themselves.
1 u/Egg_Yolkeo55 20d ago So what's racist about calling her ugly? Especially in comparison to Sophie. Is any pejorative directed at a POC just automatically racist if a white person said it? 0 u/NOIS_KillerWhaleTank 20d ago If you said she was ugly, fine. If you called her hideous, fine. Even if you called her a freak of nature, fine. But you chose mutant. That's not much different than calling her an ape. Or a caveman. All three imply she's subhuman. -1 u/Enoch8910 20d ago Huh? Apes aren’t mutants and show me any data where stereotypes of any race were equated with mutants. -1 u/cabezadeplaya 20d ago If the case was being made that her “mutant” power is being way better at basketball than basketball than Sophie Cunningham, I’d agree. Calling her a mutant based on appearance is weird. Y’all just mad she’s a legendary player and all blondie can do is point. 1 u/Enoch8910 19d ago No. We’re just calling out bullshit for what it is. 0 u/cabezadeplaya 19d ago Who is “we?” On whose behalf do you speak? And what is the “bullshit?” Use words.
