That was their goal all along. Leftists don't want sports for two reasons:
1.) They feel sports robs money from their core goals. The same for the military.
2.) Real sports is merit based. It simply is the antithesis of equality. Because in REALITY, not everyone is equal, and nothing, NOTHING makes that unequivocal statement like sports does. The same goes for the military. In combat, when the only thing that counts in the end, life or death, is how good someone is at fighting, the outcome cannot be jiggered by Leftists.
So...I give the scummy a-holes points for playing the long game. How I despise Leftism.
It’s not going to end sports. It’s just going to get schools — especially public schools — out of the business of running sports teams.
