Why are they doing this stupid “put a small Chinese lady on the mavericks because DEI lolol” bit? Isn’t their whole (imaginary) point that DEI wrongly takes the place of merit-based achievement? Basketball players are signed based on their athletic skills, thus a small Chinese lady probably wouldn’t be as good, thus the team is already rewarding based on merit, which is what the chuds want. Even if they’re attempting to be ironic, it doesn’t make sense because they’re arguing against their own point. Right wingers are just the dumbest motherfuckers

The dumb joke is that if Mark Cuban is committed to DEI he would be putting a tiny woman on the court

They're doing it because Mark Cuban tweeted that DEI is a good thing and they're daring him to staff his former basketball team that way

It's a great comeback because everyone knows that the only people that are on the payroll of a sports franchise are the players. No coaches, trainers, analysts, executives, etc. Just a dozen players.

I mean hes such a deathly unserious person that all these problems dont matter and he can just insist hes owning the MSM and X is crushing it despite the 70% devaluation last year so oh well. The stock market also just assigns seeming random values to his other companies to make sure he stays the world's wealthiest person so theres no incentive to do better. Get serious people and a serious financial system with accountability for billionaires to run a company if you want it to improve.

"clearly because there is a correlation between aptitude for basketball and height, it must also be a correlation between aptitude for high paying powerful jobs and beautiful white ubermensch brains, which is convenient because I am a white supremacist with the, ahem, CORRECT uhhhh metrics"

Win the culture war and make em' cry!!!!" Also they just completely ignore that Nikola Jokic is regarded as one of the best players in the world atm for his indisputable skill and performance? Even I know that and I barely follow basketball Kale fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Jan 5, 2024 |

Can't you imagine the PR fallout had they actually gone through with that because his meltdown started basically a few months after. Of course he responded to the tweet advertising the potential stuntcasting in really tedious and ironic fashion with the beloved emoji....

I’ve never played Genshin but based on watching my wife’s little brother play it it seems like an aggressively anime beat-em-up where you fight huge raid bosses while shouting your attacks, and if we could have had a tiny anime waifu character chaining combos on Elon with a ridiculous Cloud Strife sized sword then I would be for it

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.” and now the anti-semites will get an automated "no u, but in 1000 words" button
