An affirmative action parade.

A few weeks ago, most of America didn’t even know that we had such a women’s team, and most of us still have no idea what this is about.

When you grow up in poverty you play soccer.

America will see a lot more soccer in the coming decades.

I don’t think this is accurate . . . I think Gertrude Ederle also received a ticker tape parade after swimming the English Channel.

American Women’s Soccer. Because lesbians need something besides the WNBA to root for.

FYI - the whole premise of them being first is absurdly off:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ticker-tape_parades_in_New_York_City

Besides Ederle:

September 10, 1926 – Amelia Gade Corson, first mother and second woman to swim the English Channel

September 20, 1928 – Aimé Tschiffely Swiss-Argentine Horse Rider from Buenos Aires to New York

June 20, 1932 – Amelia Earhart Putnam following transatlantic flight.

July 11, 1957 – Althea Gibson, winner of the Wimbledon women’s singles championship.

March 9, 1960 – Carol Heiss, Olympic figure skating gold medalist.

Etc.

I had to turn the radio OFF from the local news station, because NYC mayor DiBlahBlah turned this occasion into a libtard causes podium. He never spoke about their ability to play soccer well; instead, he brayed on and on about how great WOMEN are, diversity, equality, etc. He USED these gallant girls for his own sick political purposes. Too bad none of them appear to be black, or he would have droned on about black female soccer players and how wonderful they were. Or how wonderful women soccer players with type B blood are. Or those who are atheists, etc. Instead of praising the UNITY of the team, how they came together to create a formidable team, he was picking off the “other” points one by one. What a shameless hustler. No wonder he & Al Sharpton are such close pals. They share the same ideals: me, me, and me.

This parade was a "triple play" (or "hat trick") in so far as the DeBlasios and the NYC lefty cohorts who promoted this thing yesterday are concerned. The cultural subtext here was exquisite for the left.

(1) It lauded soccer, a sport that is traditionally non-American, i.e., internationalism as compared to Americanism.

(2) It paid homage to women playing a traditionally men's sport, emphasizing a feminist theme that women allegedly can do just as good as men at traditionally men's activities. (Contrary to feminist dogma, women have yet to measure up to men at the highest respective levels of any sport. Sure, Billie Jean King beat Bobby Riggs in that hyped up "Battle of the Sexes" in tennis, but King was about thirty years younger than Riggs at the time. Matched against a top-tier male tennis pro of approximately the same age, King would have had no chance.)

(3) It honored "lesbian chic," not that all the team players are lesbian, but at least the one most prominent in the parade displayed her "orientation" at the championship match for all to see.
