“first-world privilege”

There’s a term that needs to be used more often. Many whom call themselves ‘victims’ or believe they’re ‘oppressed’ yet live in the USA in 2023 are certainly guilty of having “first-world privilege”.

Is she the dyke who kneels at the National Anthem?

“given a $50 million advance for a book that no one will buy “

You don’t publish that book for people to buy. You publish it for institutions to buy. Institutions will take the money they raised to help gay and trans kids and buy boxes of the book with it

Just like college football. The men have to subsidize ALL of the women’s sports programs. Title IX and all. /spit

Yep. Brittny Griner comes to mind.

Too many spoiled ignorant people in this country think their rights and privileges are international.

Rapinoe has soccer skills for sure, but her entitled, flippant, and unpatriotic attitude is the epitome of first-world privilege."

So typical of so many of her generation. A malignant narcissist. Goodbye Megan! Enjoy your soon-to-come anonymity. We will be better off for your absence.

Too bad a member of the other team didn’t give her a compound fracture, or at least kick her in the head.

I do feel bad for Ertz, she didn’t miss her kick. Also sang and held her hand over her heart during all games....and her husband use to play for the Eagles. A very nice couple. She announced her retirement too, will miss her play.

Sick joke: so now the universe is her oppressor. Poor victim.
