Deadspin Tried to Destroy a Kid for Wearing 'Blackface,' Then the Real Story Came Out

 Deadspin Tried to Destroy a Kid for Wearing 'Blackface,' Then the Real Story Came Out – RedState

So what's the real story? Was this a malicious act of racism meant to demean and offend black people? In short, no. The real story is that the kid had his face painted black and red in support of his team.

"If you are one of the last people on earth who still requires proof that the press is full of objectively evil people, I come bearing gifts. 

"The story starts with a young Kansas City Chiefs fan. I don't know what his name is, and I wouldn't share it if I did because it's irrelevant. What's relevant is that the sports and political commentary site Deadspin decided they needed to destroy him. 

"What was the grave injustice that was perpetrated? According to Carron J. Phillips, who wrote the piece, the kid was seen wearing "blackface." I'd highly encourage you not to click the following link lest you reward the writer's tactics, but I'll provide it nonetheless. " . . .

The picture on the article is misleading. Other pictures of the child in question show that the other half of his face is painted red, black and red being the team's colors. twitter.com/shumate_shon/s…

. . ."Yes, a somewhat notable media outlet tried to take down a literal child because he painted his face in two different colors to cheer on his favorite NFL team. That's where we are as a society. Naturally, because again, the press is filled with objectively evil people, the writer of the piece doubled down. 

For the idiots in my mentions who are treating this as some harmless act because the other side of his face was painted red, I could make the argument that it makes it even worse.

"That guy being named "Carron" is just too perfect. Imagine being so miserable and desperate for clicks that you'd publicly doxx a child in order to accuse them of racism when you already knew they just had their face painted to represent their team. That's a special level of derangement." . . .
