I am a Cardinals fan, disgusted (again) by so many other Card fans
So our new outfielder, Dexter Fowler, is married to a woman who immigrated from Iran to America as a child. They had planed to visit Iran in the off season so his wife and daughter could see the Cousins and Aunts and Uncles.
You know to do some of that - FAMILY STUFF - that the "family Values" folks talk about when they discuss white people but disregard for anyone too dark?
But due to the uncertainty surrounding 45's travel ban and court cases it spawned, they cancelled the trip and Fowler characterized that as "Unfortunate"
I know right? What a radical he is. Practically a New Black Panther Party manifesto right there.
Well the ever present "Get A Brain Moran" Redbird supporters went absolutely insane (Insaner? they were never that tightly wrapped to begin with) and began heaping abuse and venom all around the Internets.
St Louis is a nice place (REALLY. NO LIE. THE LOU IS COOL) surrounded by Trumpistan and the fan base includes a large contingent of folks who automatically disliked Dexter... After all, he is guilty of Melanin possession, a capital crime to a lot of these "fans".
Here is a sample:
