Mary Oliver would not want you to buy a hoodie with "Joy is not meant to be a crumb" printed on it. She would like you to take a walk in the woods with your dog.

Frame: these African women soccer players aren't really women
Negation: actually they were all assigned female at birth
Kirby: TRANSPHOBES ARE ALWAYS RACISTS. They are trying to define whose bodies are acceptable. The league must reject that project, not claim to meet its standards

The @nwslsoccer.com & @nwslplayers.bsky.social statements accept the frame of the right wing and it sucks!
They are bad faith attacks from bigoted folks who don’t care about women’s sports at all. Stop justifying their “concerns”. No Murdoch-owned org actually cares about the NWSL.

Frame: food stamps are used by undeserving / Black people
Negation: actually many people on food stamps are deserving / white
Kirby: THEY ARE STARVING PEOPLE ON PURPOSE. They are using racist tropes to justify it bc many people will find that persuasive. Everyone deserves to eat

Seeing all the content focused on centering all the people who need help who aren’t “fat, ghetto asses” and we can already see how the deserving/undeserving rhetorical lines are going to fall.
