Wonder Why the WaPo Is Failing? Leftist Rag's Pick for 'Most Relevant' NFL Player Tells You All


RedState 

As we’ve reported, the Washington Post has laid off hundreds of staff as their years of gaslighting, serving as a mouthpiece for the Democrat party, and acting as an outlet for progressive fanaticism have finally caught up to them and bitten them in the tuchus.

Lying, performative theatrics, and endless virtue signaling have a way of coming back at you in the modern age, especially when you have platforms like RedState and X bringing you the truth.

As if to prove their point that they are anti-American propagandists, the outlet penned a love letter for a familiar figure as they feted his toxic past efforts to infuse the National Football League with social justice dogma.

His name is Colin Kaepernick, and he's the most “relevant player,” the shameless outlet wrote, despite the fact that he isn’t a player and hasn’t been for years.

They wrote:

The Super Bowl is being played in Colin Kaepernick’s former home stadium, at a societal moment that echoes the issues he forced football fans to confront nearly 10 years ago, after he kneeled during the national anthem before a 49ers game.

They waxed poetic: “The most relevant figure to Super Bowl LX is absent from it.“ No, WaPo, he is not the most relevant figure; in fact, he’s nothing but an afterthought to most fans. An unfortunate one, at that.

Although there are numerous WaPo writers whining on social media that they’ve lost their jobs, they only have themselves to blame:

Look in the mirror, people:

Let’s be honest: Colin Kaepernick is not, and was never, a unifying figure. Although he showed flashes of greatness early in his 49er career, he quickly overshadowed that with his bizarre hair antics and his anti-American diatribes.
