[On the US Olympic basketball team being mostly black]
If one’s team no longer represents something good, if it’s a team of thugs, does one still care about them and identify with them?
I used to identify with various sports teams, and race was not a factor. The blacks were my guys as much as the whites. But as black athletes became increasingly disgusting and thuggish, that was a major factor in my losing interest in sports.
And in addition to the thug aspect, there is the fact that blacks corporately (not individually) represent a hostile and adversial presence in America. They are certainly not for us. Why should we be for them?
But in a sense I’m not qualified to participate in this discussion about whether we should root for our Olympic teams, since the Olympics as such offend me, it is has become the religious cult of the New World Order, and I have no more interest in the U.S. athletes than any others. See Marion Horvat’s article at Tradition in Action (discussed here) criticizing the pope for blessing the Olympics.
