Feeling safe has nothing to do with Team Dazzler's desire to disarm law abiding citizens. It has nothing to do with protecting black kids with illegal hand guns from shooting other black kids. We all know what concerns Team Dazzler.
What is the functional difference between the douche journalist and the dazzler? Apparently, black face is a problem unless you are the dem governor of Virginia or the bastard son Justin Castro, PM of Canada.
DEADSPIN REPORTER BLASTED BY MOM OF YOUNG KANSAS CITY CHIEFS FAN HE FALSELY SHAMED FOR WEARING ‘BLACKFACE:’ ‘He is Native American.’
The mother of a young football fan who wore a headdress and painted his face red and black to a Kansas City Chiefs game has blasted Deadspin for accusing him of “doubling up” on racism against black and Native communities — noting that her son is himself Native American.
Holden Armenta became an unexpected focus of an article by senior writer Carron Phillips that focused on a photo of the boy standing sideways, suggesting he was wearing blackface with no mention of the red side.
“The NFL needs to speak out against the Kansas City Chiefs fan in Black face, Native headdress,” read the headline, which accused the boy of “doubling up on the racism.”
Phillips, a former New York Daily News reporter, also slammed Holden’s Native American headdress and his “Tomahawk Chop” gesture, claiming the boy “found a way to hate Black people and Native Americans at the same time.”
“It takes a lot to disrespect two groups of people at once,” Phillips wrote in the article, which has since been tagged with a community note on X branding it “purposely deceiving.”
Related: “Phillips got so much backlash that he later deleted his tweet claiming that the red and black paint might be ‘even worse’ than full blackface. The now-deleted tweet read, ‘For the idiots in my mentions who are treating this as some harmless act because the other side of his face was painted red, I could make the argument it makes it even worse.’”
Yes, he could make that argument, but why in 2023 are professional sports journalists going out of their way to attack young football fans? Darkening Skies for Sports Journalism.
