What blows my mind is watching people suddenly discover their morals when it comes to this while ignoring everything else they already support. A lot of y’all support Unrivaled. A lot of y’all support the W. Some of y’all are buying All-Star tickets knowing exactly what patches are going to be on those jerseys. Many of y’all support the NBA too. Hell, I’ve even seen people bend over backwards defending Paige’s AI partnership.
The reality is that almost every major league, company, and athlete is tied to money from corporations, investors, governments, or countries that somebody can find an issue with if they dig deep enough. So if your issue is genuinely about morals, keep that same energy across the board.
But if you’re only pulling out the moral outrage for Project B while giving everything else a pass, that’s hypocrisy. Quite frankly, it’s performative. You don’t have to support Project B. You don’t have to like it. But acting like it’s uniquely unethical while ignoring similar relationships throughout sports, the same leagues, teams, and players you already support and even want her to be a part of, is crazy to me.
* and this is not me telling people not to be disappointed. Or whatever. Have valid criticism. Idc. I’m not telling anyone to abandon their morals because of an athlete. If anything, I wish people would stop putting moral clause onto athletes, you don’t know these people. But It’s honestly bigger than that lol. It’s just a pattern where people have selective outrage and it’s so stupid.
