An opinion editor for the Washington Post penned a scathing column calling on the Texas Rangers baseball team to retire its name due to the history of violence against Black and indigenous people behind it. Global Opinions editor Karen Attiah made her case on Monday after the Washington Redskins dropped their name in the face of fierce criticism over its racist connotations.

I believe this is the same woman who enjoys calling white women "Karens" and wishes to take revenge on white women for the perceived since of dead white women.

Her idiocy is made manifest. She might as well be shouting down a badger hole because Texas is just going to laugh at her.

[Army Air Corps]

Yeah, never mind that the Texas Rangers are a multi-ethnic law enforcement agency.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

This doesn’t stop until your hometown sports team adopts a name like:

The Lenins
The Trotskies
The Che Guevaras
The Shining Paths
etc.

She needs to get a life...

The writer was whelped here, but still calls herself a Ghanan-American because both her parents moved here from Ghana. So of course, sue us immensely qualified to provide us with assaholic lectures about the Texas Rangers.

I’d expect our domestic enemies to demand vocabulary changes for the Bridge card game, but they might be too rectocranially inserted to know how to play it.

[TexasM1A]

Another racist black woman demanding things.

[1Old Pro]

I think we need to outlaw the color BLUE, not only in sports, but everywhere - it reminds us of law enforcement.

Maybe we should drop the entire English language, it's full of racist connotations.

Actually we could find something disagreeable in every language.

Her parents are from Ghana?????

Ok, this leads me to wonder :

Why in the sam hill, did her parents voluntarily migrate here from Ghana, if America is such a racist bigoted nation????

And why in the sam hill does she stay in this country, if Amreica is so racist??? Why doesn’t she return to the homeland if America is so intolerable to her?????

Marxist useful IDIOT!

So, it’s not about Indian tribes or accessories. It’s about anything the insane left wants to destroy.

It won’t stop here.

If she is so unhappy about this, she should definitely stay out of Texas.

I watched an MSM news report yesterday announcing the Washington Redskins were changing their name “due to an outpouring of public opinion.”

I thought - more media BS!

Has anyone ever done a real poll or vote on changing the name? Do people really care about this? Or is it just another narrow, media-and-social-media-driven, fake narrative?
