I hate to say this considering the subject matter, but I thought The Insider was SUPER dull. I would have rather watched a documentary.
Ah, I see. This is one of these “I must have the last word” things. How childish. Go for it.
I thought you weren’t going to talk to me anymore. I guess that was another lie.
You’re free to stop responding any time you like.
You’re also free to keep lying.
It’s a pretty transparent lie though.
You can easily prove I’m gaslighting by quoting whatever I said that was violent.
You won’t, because it was a lie.
I didn’t think so.
That would be because you lied and there was no violence in anything I said.
Fine. Please quote my violence.
What violence? What aggression? As far as I can tell, the only aggressive person here has been the one calling me names.
Sorry, you think she’s oppressed when she calls the men’s team by its actual name because marital rape was legal before she was born. You’re just implying she’s stupid by not knowing what name to call the men’s team. My mistake.
No, I really can’t. I have no idea what any of that has to do with her calling the name of the men’s team by the actual name of the men’s team.
You must think she’s pretty stupid.
Sorry… because spousal rape was legal in the 1980s in many states, Brittney Griner is a victim when she calls the men’s team “The NBA” in her book?
You are making absolutely no sense.
Why does that matter?
Women are not being misogynistic when they call the men’s team “The NBA” but men are? How does that even work?
She did exactly the same thing I did, except she published it in a book. By your own logic, she’s a misogynist.
I can’t help your logic.
Or Brittney Griner’s misogyny. Not only did she do the exact same thing I did, she published it in a book.
Does anyone hate women more than Brittney Griner?
You will certainly cause a lot of “disruption” by berating a stranger for calling the NBA the NBA in a random thread on Lemmy. The revolution has begun and you’ve already won!
Again- that is the name of the league. That is not my fault.
It’s also not my fault that the women’s league of the PGA is the LPGA and the men’s league is the PGA.
And by your logic, every single person, male or female, who calls the men’s league of the NBA “the NBA” is a sexist.
Incidentally, this includes Brittney Griner.
We earn about 250 times less than NBA players and have a hard cap on our salaries. In the WNBA that year I made around $220,000. Overseas, I earned a million plus. That pay gap is why I was in Russia in the first place.

Wow, Brittney Griner really hates women, doesn’t she?
Again, that is the name of the men’s league. That is not my fault, it’s theirs. It’s not anti-feminism to use the proper names of things even if those names are sexist.
No. I don’t see how stupid it sounds since everyone, except maybe you, knew what I was talking about. The men’s division is simply called the NBA everywhere I look. I can’t help that it’s both the entire league’s name and just the name of the men’s league as well.
Basically you’re criticizing me for not using a term that no one, save maybe you, uses.
You show me a major sport news source that calls them “the men’s NBA.”
Because I can’t find one.
This is sounding like you’re just making something up in order to call someone a misogynist.
MacOS?
(please don’t hurt me, it was a joke.)
