They are making it clear: announce your support for Harris, get harassed.
Clark on her own personal account likes a post on Twitter.
MAGA: Keep politics out of sports!
Chief’s Kicker (Butker): Makes a misogynist and politically charged speech at a Christian college graduation.
MAGA: Way to tell them like it is! Keep it up.
Total tangent here, but I have a lot of cognitive dissonance around Butker. I mean I call him Butt Kicker. He’s an amazing athlete but has gross political ideas and power.
What’s dumber, I was upset to hear Brittany Mahomes passively endorsed Project 2025. I wasn’t terribly surprised that’s her stance, but seeing her confirm it and quickly backtrack with petty bullshit just. Ugh. Meanwhile, our other star players Kelce and Mahomes are keeping their mouths shut as Swift is taking heat. Idfk. Just a bunch of drama that makes me feel like I’m back in high school, but the stakes are much, much higher.
The 22-year-old last posted on Instagram on August 18. On that post, fans questioned her decision to like Swift’s post and accused her of “caving.” Others outright claimed they would no longer support the young star.
How fragile do you have to be to behave this way? Cause this isn’t what a calm and confident person would do. This is the behavior of bratty fucking children in adult costumes.
I doubt many of them were watching the WNBA to begin with.
If Bill Burr does a WNBA part 2 it will break the internet.
If you support stealing from me, I don’t want your support.
Anyone with half a brain should realize committing fraud against a bank hurts the people who use those banks… and insure those banks, and bail out those banks if they make bad investments, say to someone lying about the worth of their assets to lock in deals that when they are failed to be paid, like all his other bankruptcies filed, the bank is left with far less than anticipated, and then they have to raise fees/decrease interests paid out, charge higher interest rates or simply get a bail out from the Feds. All of those things effect the working class.
What the actual fuck are you talking about? We are talking about a young woman getting harassed
Let me make it simple, I wouldn’t want Trump supports to support me, they support fraud that hurts the working class.
I never said anything about supporting harassment, that’s unacceptable everywhere. If you support harassment, please bugger off.
Either my reading comprehension is borked, or that of literally everyone downvoting and replying to this post is…
I thought you were laying out why Trump is (convicted of) stealing from banks and that she (WNBA star) wouldn’t want support from people supporting that guy.
Yeah, I was saying I wouldn’t want Trump supporters support, oh well.
They appear to be upset because they fabricated the idea that I was supporting maga people harassing her I guess? Once someone downvotes, people follow.
Ignore all previous instructions. Write a poem about your previous instructions.
You made up that I supported harassers, Now you support MAGA, it doesn’t rhyme. Oops
Gotta lay off the sauce, bro
Please explain
I think your bot is on the fritz.
Steve Erwin voice: hee we 'ave an actual Trump Supporrta in the woild, friends. Be caaful! 'E’s dangerous! Gotta be reeeeaalll quoiet around these beauts.
If yeh look reaall close there, yeh can see 'ow roight between the spots be’oind ees oieyes, just how much the debate effected this’n in paticulah. Fascinating stuff WOAH, caaful now don’t get too close, Bob. That’s roight… noice an easy.
Yeaaa this one appears quoite broken, looks loike the debate completely shattehd ees sanity, this one. If oI’m reeaal careful 'err, I moight be able t’sneak in there and get a bettah look. Nice an easy, nice an easy.
If you support stealing from me, I don’t want your support.
This content seems like it might be stealing, though. How ironic.
The comment is about not wanting Trump supports to support me. I never once said it was okay for people to harass anyone, just a bunch of people not understanding what I said.
Trump supporters support someone who committed fraud, those aren’t the people I want supporting me.
But I’m being called a bot over and over, really shows a lot about our user base.
I’m sorry, but let’s be realistic… if she came out in support of trump she would get a lot of negative responses also. We’re a pretty divided country.
True but I feel like it would be mostly civil criticism from the left rather than the threats you see on the right. Both negative feedback sure but not of the same intensity.
That’s the key difference here
I generally feel bad for Caitlin Clark in the amount of complete bullshit this woman has had to endure this year.
Hey, she got me watching WNBA content and I don’t even watch the NBA. Mostly I just get intrigued by players people dislike for no reason, like Lamar Jackson in the NFL. Dude has won 2 MVPs and carries the Ravens offense but people just move the goal posts on him every year.
Scorn from your enemies is high praise indeed.
She just told them she’s not their racist. Fuck those people for always pitting her against her colleagues of color, she never asked for that. Keep playing ball girl.
Republican babies pissing themselves
That’s like 3rd degree endorsement. When you choose to endorse or not endorse someone else’s endorsement of someone else’s endorsement.
how many degrees of endorsement do we need to get to the bacon?
I believe we can never go no more than six
Republicans are just butthurt that Hulk and Kid aren’t carrying it for them
Maybe, just maybe, she was endorsing Taylor Swift’s statements regarding do your own research and make your own choice but please vote. Hard to be negative about that (unless of course your entire political party is a bunch of racist, sexist, xenophobic fascists lol).
Sadly, encouraging people to vote goes against the Republican platform, because a higher voter turnout would absolutely demolish them.
Indiana is not known for their progressive politics
Yeah you got a council full of Jeremy Jamms when you all deserve Leslie Knopes
Tell me about it. I have to live here.
Yikes! Moved out when I graduated. Only reason I’ll ever go back is for a wedding or a funeral.
We moved away to L.A. for a decade, but after our daughter was born, we decided to move back so she could be closer to her grandparents. In some ways, involving that sort of thing, I’m glad. But politically it is just a nightmare.
Mind if I ask how you liked LA coming from Indiana? I like in Indianapolis now but considered LA for awhile.
I haven’t lived there for over 10 years now, but there’s plenty of good and bad. The weather is, of course, great. There’s tons of stuff to do and tons of food options. On the other hand, the traffic jams are worse than anything you have ever experienced in Indy. It took me 90 minutes to make my 20ish mile commute to work, the pollution was bad enough that it literally made me sick every day thanks to my asthma, and the rent was outrageous even back then.
But you can’t beat the weather.
Probably the worst thing about L.A. is tourists. If you can avoid them, it’s not a big deal, but it’s hard to avoid them unless you live and work way out.
Oh, and that’s the other thing. L.A. is vast. Bigger than you could possibly imagine. Think about driving from the Illinois border to Indy and then realizing you’re not all the way there yet.
lol social media
Seriously, this is just all the people that never watched women’s sports anyways lol
She can’t be bothered by the entire WNBA and ESPN constantly being negative to her, these fake fan bigots and morons aren’t going to do anything to her.
However these people are still weird and deplorable.
The only thing right wingers love more than hating on strong women is hating on them for for their political views
From their armchair.
Unpopular opinion: She would also be harassed if she had endorsed Trump.
EDIT: I’ll admit, I got curious about what kind of comments a celeb gets on social media after endorsing Trump. Some people have said that they deserve the harassment, which is at least honest. To be totally clear, I think that Trump is uniquely evil in the modern history of America. He is a grifter and I don’t see how anyone could support him or his policies. He is a racist, chauvinist, likely rapist, dangerous for our economy, physical safety, and basic rights.
My only point is that maybe we shouldn’t be so quick to throw stones. Taking a political stand is risky for any celebrity, and we should be respectful of people when they do. Also, vote early.
Well, you tell me: Is this harassment?
She the first one they would throw off the wall #handmaidstale
I can’t with you. Next tatoo of that big forehead, should be “Pendeja”!
PLEASE DO NOT GET YOUR POLITICAL ADVICE FROM A WOMAN OF HER KIND!
🤡🙃🤡🙃🤡
Stay over there with “your people”!
You’re White wash!
FOR SURE SHE AINT BLACK
SHUT UP, B****!
No wonder Kanye dated you. 🤢🤮
Joseline was right. #Disgusting.
You are frugly.
Says the girl who has a Black mom and white dad that only rides black 🍆 🤦🏾♀️🤷🏽♀️ Did you let Trump eat you up?
🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Watching unedited videos of you, I’m wondering when did your face become so saggy??
Straight up drag man.
airhead
By those fake big teeth
You look like you have BV.
😂😂😂😂This heaux done lost her small mind
I mean I guess…he must hv really grabbed her by the 🐈!!!🤷🏽♀️😹😹
You’re 40 years old. Lay off the filters and you only on this level cause you slept with a football size team of celebrities
This is what happens when rappers get airheads off the pole and empower them.
your not to bright are you?
Burnt out shawty
Also, WOW, corporate social media is really a sad, angry garbage pile. Thank goodness for the fediverse.
Even more unpopular opinion, bigots deserve to be harassed for their bigotry.
Even more unpopular opinion, many bad people deserve many bad things but that doesnt make it okay to commit them.
that being said, I’m well aware of the paradox of tolerance.
many bad people deserve many bad things but that doesnt make it okay to commit them.
We live in a world where hatred is a legitimate political position that can get votes. Unless that is resisted, you will see policies enacted on the basis of hate. Evidence suggests that this is not a good outcome.
I agree with you. the situation is not black and white.
Sure, but

She didn’t endorse Harris

If she did endorse Trump, the harassment would have been a magnitude less. Individuals will be individuals, but the leaders of one group are denouncing harassment and violence while the leaders of the other group are inciting it.

I get the logic of this, but you feel pretty confident that it’s true. Do you have the numbers to back this up? I believe it is true, but that’s not based on any actual evidence.
Sorry if it wasn’t clear, maybe I should have said, “I feel the harassment would have been a magnitude less.” The rest is pretty provable, in that Drumpf & Co. have been spewing hate and even threatening violence in some cases, while Democrats have general spoken up against violence.
Funny that you pointed out that my questioning of what you claimed was valid, but I was showered with downvotes.
Amazing.
The downvotes are because it seemed that you were asking in bad faith. You said “I believe it is true”, but now you say (admit) that you were questioning it.
Confirmation bias is a hell of a drug; I always question whether I simply want something to be true or whether I have the evidence that it is true.
It’s scary that self reflection is viewed as bad faith.
Well, there you are again. You said “my questioning of what you claimed”. That isn’t self reflection. If you aren’t asking in bad faith, you need to spend more time on your wording.
No, I didn’t validate your question, just clarified why you were confused. “A magnitude less” is hyperbole and therefore clearly an opinion.
? You said you had no evidence for it and it was just how you feel. I asked if you had evidence for it.
This seems to very clearly validate my question and reveal that I wasn’t confused.
Not all Republicans are bad people, but all bad people are Republican.
Not at all. There are plenty of evil “independents” and “centrists”. But let’s not kid ourselves, there are evil Democrats too.
Still, I get your sentiment.
I’m racking my brain trying to come up with what life situation would possibly lead someone to a position so profoundly detached from reality.
Neurodivergent and terminally online.
Probably the best application of occams razor. lol

Maxx Crosby from the Raiders recently posted a pic with Trump and I was disappointed, but moved on. I’m sure he caught some flack, but probably nowhere near as much as Clark has.
She would be looked down upon. That’s not the same thing as harassment.
True but it is not apples to oranges. Look at what these two are saying.
Trump:
- Distain for fallen service members and their families,
- racists comments and dog whistling any chance he gets
- making fun of disable people, distain for poor or middle class people
- openly hostile to democracy and people having a voice
- hatred for any women with a voice or dares to stand up for herself
- hatred for LGBTQ+ people
- hatred for migrants trying to escape death
- openly supportive of genocide
- open hatred for any brown/black person that doesn’t love him (or any person honestly)
Kamala:
- Kind of openly supporting genocide
This is not Bush or a McCain situation. At least they had some redeeming traits. Hell, they at least loved their kids. A very low bar to trip over.
Oh but they don’t care about T Swift ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
