or the belief that all oppression is linked. That means just about everyone is a victim . Sometimes the victims grievances intersect.
As an example ;let's say that an antisemitic Hamas supporting mob crosses paths with a Pride march in Philadelphia.
Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters crashed a gay pride parade in Philadelphia on Sunday, bringing the celebratory march to a halt.

Their alliance works when they have a common enemy like the Jews.
But after that

When BMW was asked why they said it would not be culturally appropriate .

What happens when women's rights intersect with race identity ?

I can't help but believe this would not have happened if Clark was a man dressed like a woman.

Clark did a "like " on Taylor Swift's endorsement of Kam the Sham
1st Swift...... Here you have a woman who is famous for singing about her bad life choices ..... nuff said
Clark is what I have found interesting . Nothing from the above has changed . She is white in a league dominated by Black women. She has taken beat down after beat down often without reit wfs intervention or even her teammates support. She is responsible for a surge in WNBA popularity to a point where teams will use larger arena when the Indiana Fever is in town.
Go on X and you can see some of the fouls .

Lately she has been taking matters into her own hand and hitting back since the league is taking a hands off policy .
Maybe she thinks liking the Swift endorsement will help her with the woke crowd
