No, the NFL isn’t racist because black men get tackled more often in the NFL

There are some people who are just so desperate to see racism in everything they will simply make it up where it does not exist. Such is the case of an “article” published by Scientific American last week claiming that “football’s violence disproportionately affects Black men.” In a sport that is both violent and played predominantly by black men, the logical response to this preposterous claim is, “Ya think?”

Many people seek to do nothing but coddle black people, and “Damar Hamlin’s Collapse Highlights the Violence Black Men Experience in Football” is an example of that. It’s such an illogical assertion that one could legitimately presume it's parody or satire until you realize the author is an assistant professor at Duke University. Instead, it reflects the toxic absurdity that currently dominates intelligentsia and academia and the pathetic, desperate need to categorize all things that negatively affect black people as the result of some kind of racism.
