Tom Brady's popularity tied to rise in 'white rage and white supremacy,' professor says

[Baker Boy 1,500]

Kyle Kusz, a kinesiology professor at the University of Rhode Island, published a book this month titled “Making American White Men Great Again: Tom Brady, Donald Trump, and the Allure of White Male Omnipotence in Post-Obama America." He theorized that Brady became popular due to the rise of “white rage and white supremacy,” according to Campus Reform.

Imagine how popular he would be if he won a few games. 

[bostonlager 2,497]

Outside of the New England states I think he is more hated than any active athlete. Kyle Kusz is a stupid sonofabitch and so is his theory.

Don't know who Kuck Kucks is, but Rhode Island rivals any southern state when it comes to flat out racism.

Brady is up there with Jeter - as an all time great foe who's so likeable, it's impossible to hate him.

Being handsome really does make life easier. A friend told me

[RLLD 3,539]

THIS is the kind of critical thought now celebrated across college campuses.  And a further note, to oppose it is to risk a leftist label.....no disloyalty to the ideology is permissible.

[edjr 5,656]

Patriots have definitely added to RLLD's white rage

LOL, this guy wrote a book Revolt of the White Athlete: Race, Media and the Emergence of Extreme Athletes in America (Intersections in Communications and Culture).

This is what the summary says...

"Informed by whiteness studies, Kyle Kusz’s groundbreaking book examines the role that sport discourses play in reproducing a central, normative, and superior position for white masculinity in American culture and society at the turn of the twenty-first century. Specifically, Kusz illuminates how the American sports media – through cover stories detailing the so-called disappearance of the white (male) athlete in American sports or the rise of extreme sports – produced a set of contradictory images of white masculinity as victimized and unprivileged, yet superior and squarely centered in American culture, that shaped and were shaped by a broader cultural struggle to re-secure white male privilege."

 

What a moron!  Needless to say, the book has a 1.7 star rating from the 5 comments.  You need to read those comments.

That would mean taking on responsibility. It is much easier to just blame the evil white man.

I wonder if in Brazil they consider Giselle to be an uncle marco for marrying a white guy.

As I said, once colleges start handing out racial/gender studies degrees, the graduates must find work in that field.  That means they must endlessly find new examples of racial / gender problems to justify their degrees, no matter how ridiculous they get.  It will make gender / race relations WORSE, not better.  The solution is to force colleges to stop offering these degrees.  Otherwise, they will get more and more ridiculous.

Of course.  But I can assure you, where Ed was hanging out there aren't very many actual NY'rs. Hardly anyone from Mid-Town Manhattan is from there. One of the most popular sports bars in NYC is a Michigan Wolverine Bar.

Responsibility to them is to hate white people and to be proficient at pretending to have compassion for others (non white) rather than just admitting they are using those others as pawns for pushing their hate agenda

That isn't all that surprising. How far away from NYC is the closest major college football program? 10,000 miles?

It's more about all the rich diks that went to Michigan and live in NY.

Gotchya.

 

Wolverine's eh?  Not really surprised.  I have found that big cities have a lot of bars for college and pro teams that I've never expected.  I saw an Ohio State bar in Charlotte, a Duke bar in St. Louis, and a Chargers bar in New Orleans.

She might have been born in Brazil but she’s German.

Hell her grandparents may well have been Nazis hiding out after WWII. Tons of those in South America.

This is so true.  But, we can't force them to stop.  That's very un-American.  We just need to do a better job of having kids taught properly.  We need more schools that focus on reality and not fantasy.  The best way to do that is to not tax everyone equally for a school tax.  People should be allowed choose which schools they want to be taxed for.

To be fair, a large bit of the blame falls on the right and center.

Some wackjob moron like this says something dumb. But you never read about it on his site or whatever forum he has access too. It's always the millions of tweets, reddits, and message bored posts that get it widely disseminated.

Same thing happens the other way too sometimes. Some wacko eighty says something Looney, and the left jumps all over it to paint half the electorate with that brush. 

If people would quit spreading the idiocy of idiots, we'd all be better off.
