I asked you who started it or “who was behind it” You blame conservatives?

You should be aware of what the enemy is doing...

“we have a less nativist sports culture and we’re more open — at least some groups in the United States — young people, immigrants, political liberals — are more open to liking the same kinds of things that people in other countries do. Things don’t have to be ours and ours alone.”

Behind what?

“we have a less nativist sports culture and we’re more open — at least some groups in the United States — young people, immigrants, political liberals — are more open to liking the same kinds of things that people in other countries do. Things don’t have to be ours and ours alone.”

This has been true forever. Did the Olympics originate in the US? Tennis? Golf? And what other cultural influences like dance, music, literature, etc. Or science and technology? American football evolved from Rugby. Baseball from the English game of Rounders. Basketball is one of the few sports invented entirely in America and now popular throughout the world.

I just find all of this conspiracy stuff tedious and meaningless.
