The psychology behind believing, without a scintilla of proof, that a scary lesbian coerced a majority of WNT players to kneel against their will is rather straightforward. Why does the bizarre idea like that even pop into one's head that a lesbian who allegedly asked teammates to consider kneeling with her must be a bully, when the only actual bullying (including almost daily death threats and physical assaults) that has ever happened with respect to kneeling has come from people like tjinaz who can't help but constantly express their hatred of the scary lesbian woman? How did you feel when SCOTUS ruled in favor of marriage equality tjinaz? Do you believe companies like bakeries should be allowed to deny services to gay people?
Let's talk about Carli Lloyd for a sec, who strangely decided in her final competitive WNT match to stand in opposition to social justice. It was a peculiar decision given there was no national anthem, so there was no argument that it was unpatriotic to kneel, and I think she was the only person including staff, the other team and even the referees, to stand. I have a question for Watfly. If kneeling to show support for social justice has been part of pre-games and essentially part of the game for pretty much every team in the U.S., England and elsewhere for years, if everyone else on the pitch is kneeling like they have always done for years, who is the unfocused player who is being selfish and causing distraction? Where is your post expressing how upset you were that Lloyd was not 100% focused but instead making a pretty bizarre and selfish political statement right before such an important game? Or do you believe Lloyd was the only person there who was 100% focused, while 21 of 22 starters, both teams' staff and benches and even the referees were the unfocused ones?
What I also find strange is that "almost" bully Rapinoe, who keeps tjinaz and desert hound up at night, had zero problems with Lloyd's decision to stand. It's almost, no exactly, like tjinaz's entire theory is just another attempt to slander gay people.
