Womens World Cup

Didn't know it was going on until today.

How come no one even talked about it @ wurk.

This represents overwhelming gender inequality // discrimination in sports, when the mens wcup was going on that dominated every conversation....


Did anyone else not know.. ? or was just Tp ?

I mean, people around the world are excited, maybe it’s because women playing sports are just not as popular as men playing sports around the world.

There is a TV in our company office and about 1/3 of the employees were very into it, particularly the younger and non-white ones. I have never cared much about sports but this is very good and exciting, as sports go.

You should be watching - superb female specimens in action and making our country proud. Bonus: you don't have to go outside if you watch it on TV.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
