White girls shouldn't have to compete against black girls for scholarships. It's not fair. <- the same person, born 50 years earlier

Harder to motivate people to join the military if you can’t dangle the free college over their heads

They have those folks come to our school literally every week. Its so annoying to have people come and say "well YOU can choose to not kill people but only make the stuff that kill people" and people actually think about it. I understand that most people see it as 'protecting your nation' and that it's the only option to get to collage for some folks but it's still frustrating.

i dont know how you came to this conclusion, i would say its fairly clear that the goal of the meme is to say that you should be able to do things you want like pursuing education or sports, without bullshit barrier to entry.

how did you come to the conclusion that this meme supports abolishing gendered sports?

Can you please explain how saying education and economic advancement shouldn't be tied to athletic performance supports the abolishment of women's sports leagues?

it does not but open leagues would be open to all. You basically are no longer limiting competitive sports to any particular gender.

yeah I guess it was kramer agreeing but looking at it more I think your right. I would like open leagues though and not hooking rewards to athletics and just letting people who want to do it, do it. granted you can have brackets anyway. we already do with varsity, junior varsity, intermural.
