Australia: Entire Basketball Team Refuses to Wear Anal Symbol on Their Jerseys

That Russian hockey player has inspired a movement.

Also: Australians have always been slightly less gay than Americans (though I did worry they lost their edge during that virus hoax).

Breitbart:

An Australian professional basketball team opted out of wearing a gay pride jersey after its coach claimed members were “targeted” and harassed.

The Cairns Taipans of Australia’s National Basketball League posted a message to Twitter on Wednesday insisting that as a team, they still support the LGBTQ agenda but opted out of wearing the league-approved jersey because team members were “shamed,” Fox News reported.

It appears that it was the players who were uninterested in wearing the gay pride jersey and were the subject of the attacks because they would not wear the shirts. Ultimately, the team decided none of them would wear the jersey to close ranks around the religious players who were being persecuted., the Daily Mail reported.

In the statement, the team said they are “pleased” to participate n the “Champion Pride Round” and support the league’s “promotion of inclusion and diversity.”

But the statement added, “our team has already been subjected to a barrage of abuse and harmful commentary that has led to individuals being targeted and shamed.”

“This is a negative distraction to what should be a positive experience across the game, and now we feel as though our only choice as a team is to collectively opt out of this season’s uniforms.

“This is not a reflection of our individual stances or personal views, but a protection of our brothers that are being set up to be vilified and no longer feel as though they have a safe space in our sport.

“Positive change requires positive action, and we believe we can champion different people and groups in our society without persecuting others in the process.”

NBL executive chairman and owner Larry Kestelman released a statement supporting the team’s decision.

“The NBL acknowledges the overwhelming amount of support we have received following the launch of our inaugural Pride Round and will continue to create a place where all people feel safe and can be themselves, with no judgment,” Kestelman said.

“This means having important conversations about diversity and inclusion and making sure we continue to work together from a position of love, care and support,” he added.

“The NBL fully respects and understands that there may be people in the community with different views to those being conveyed through the Champion Pride Round. Hence we have not mandated that our players have to wear the Pride jersey and if any player or team elect not to wear the jersey, we will respect that decision,” Kestelman concluded.

Yeah, people have had enough.

Faggots can no longer deny that this entire program of normalizing their sick and evil actions was all about getting access to kids.

I always knew that, but now everyone knows it, and people are backing away.

Of course, the faggot agenda is still succeeding. I’m not saying this is a major backlash yet. But I will say that a few years ago, before they started going hard on their right to molest boys, most of these basketball players probably would have found it funny to wear the gay flag, or just not thought about it at all.
