Gutfeld: MLB moving All-Star Game to Denver makes them feel good, but hurts those they insist on helping
Fox News
Once the media decided the Georgia voting bill was evil by demanding the same steps to vote that you need to perform to get a library card, what did Major League Baseball do? They moved the game from Atlanta, which is 51% Black, to Denver, which is 76% White.
So to help Black people, MLB moved the game to Denver, which is Whiter than the slopes in Aspen, and made sure Black-owned businesses in Atlanta lost millions in profit. Like most woke policies, they make the folks in charge feel good while harming the people they insist they're helping. Judging by this logic, I wouldn't be surprised if Robert Byrd's grandson threw out the first pitch. All of this stinks because it makes assumptions about Black lives that smack of condescension. And it's Blacks who must bear the consequences, not the White CEOs. If the new Georgia bill is truly Jim Crow on steroids (and possibly growth hormone, given Major League Baseball's history), well, Colorado requires voter ID to vote in person. At Coors Field, you need to show ID to pick up your tickets, which is definitely racist by activist media standards. Yes, in this new upside-down world, it's racist to assume Blacks have IDs and it's not racist to think they don't.More Related News
