Steve Sailer: “…almost nobody on the left or the right is willing to think about the relationship between college rape and college football”

September 27, 2017 By Kathy Shaidle

Football will be the death of America.

Steve Sailer writes:

White spectators like to conceive of their team’s black players as defending the homeland. The ability of black football players to play as a team on Saturday and Sunday inclines whites to be more optimistic about blacks’ potential for pro–social order than might be warranted by what they observe on Monday through Friday. And, indeed, football offers the kind of authoritarian structure under which African-Americans do best.

Moreover, football fandom serves as a way for Americans to reassure themselves of their society’s capacity for military might and lawful cooperation.
