Sports Illustrated has gracelessly expired. No one wanted to buy swimsuit issues with fat black trannies on the cover. Apparently the whole staff was laid off through a company-wide mass email this morning.

I feel like the issue was swept under the rug recently when the magazine was "caught" using not just AI-generated text, but crediting those stories to AI-generated authors (fake people with computer-generated pictures and a made-up background). Who knows where else this takes place? (CBS Sports features quite a bit of stilted writing; I'm looking right at you guys!)

I’d shed a tear but SI has been unreadable for years, and did all it could to perpetuate the caste system. Good riddance

Apparently they don't seem to care about "going broke" all that much.

Remember when the swimsuit issue was full of hot women?

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Having a bunch of effeminate writers spewing out a bastardized version of the Jackie Robinson story decades after any relevance and competing in the well saturated soft porn market under the pressure to "represent" is not a business model made. They make Outkick
with its grumble and grouse conservatism and Instagram T&A look like a smart play.

Good Riddance to SI. This article has been mentioned here before but I do recall seeing this hitjob on Whites back when I was a teenager. It stuck with me then until now. It essentially lays out the caste system, calls out the discrimination against Whites athletes yet frames it as acceptable and the psychology behind it all.

"An athlete is an athlete, but, dang it, there just seem to be more black athletes than white," says Florida State football coach Bobby Bowden. "We've got a [white] phenomenon on our team, a quarterback named Danny Kendra, whose vertical jump is 39 1/2 inches--more than anybody else we've got. He bench-presses 425 pounds, and his leg press broke the school record. He runs a 4.5 40. But there ain't many like him. And my thinking is that there's a whole lot more blacks who can do that than white guys." "You see better catches, runs, tackles--anything involving mobility, toughness, anything physical," Bowden says. "An [all-white] football team in the South in 1960 couldn't touch a football team today that's integrated. Couldn't even touch 'em. You ask what [blacks have] brought to the table? They've brought better athletes."

Caste extremist brain rot.

"I'd think blacks would always want to keep the stereotype that we're better than whites; it's an advantage," says Isiah Thomas, the former Detroit Pistons All-Star guard. "When two guys walk on the court to play basketball, and the white athlete's dealing with the guy's blackness and the black guy's dealing with the business of basketball, the black guy beats him."

Notice how Thomas doesn't say the black guy wins because of physical superiority, but because he has a psychological advantage. He inadvertently reveals how the caste system used subversion to attack White athleticism. We know that blacks didn't immediately overtake White athletes during integration. It took many years and was a concerted, multifront effort. The caste system is a completely artificial structure and evidence of that is readily available.

What will always fascinate me is how the caste system has been delineated in various articles over the years across many publications for everyone to see. People either put their head in the sand or fully accept its claims without an ounce of skepticism. It's a testament to how deep the brainwashing and demoralization efforts have sunk their hooks into White America's collective consciousness, but the truth has always been in plain sight.

Good post. It’s been said many a times but always bears repeating. Whites need to throw off the mental shackles placed upon us by our many enemies. Once that happens, there is no force on Earth that can stop our people from achieving greatness once again.

Regarding the demise of SI, it was in a death spiral for a decade or two now that it was not going to recover from. However the symbolic nail in the coffin has to be when they blatantly promoted fagg0try by putting a biological male, with countless surgeries, on its Swimsuit cover in 2023. This is worse than the Bud Light tranny scandal by far, as you are literally peddling homo smut to your core base that is 99% straight men. Quite possibly the most brazen, disgusting and foolish move a major corporation has ever engaged in.

I regard the death of SI as similar to a relative who was in a bad car crash and was hooked up to a respirator for 20 years and now finally passed away when total organ failure happened. Tears were shed years ago and it's not shocking the it happened and in my mind how did SI or the relative last this long.

As for the article I don't think SI was stating any racial theory but reporting on the trend. This article has only been expounded upon with football as many newspapers have talked about football leagues dying in more affluent areas due to the fear of injuries to their children.

I can't remember where I read this but it could have been the Boston Globe and they talked about football was still thriving in working class enclaves but dead in area like Cambridge(where Harvard is). The article also mentioned football could be heading down the road of boxing where only the poorest people participate in any serious fashion.

From personal experience I remember guys who were pro hockey prospects who were big guys for high school students yet didn't play on my high school team because of a fear of a bad injury and we had a guy who qualified for the provincial final in the long jump not bother to play football and he would have been the either the fastest player or damn close it to and he had good muscle mass for high school football.

PS I further read into the article and the racist tropes were stated in the article with Seikaly talking about a buffed semi pro guy jumping out of the gym and of course Massah Bowden repeating his mantra that probably got him admitted to "caste heaven".

The fact that every rainbow-flag-waving leftist still uses "gay" as an insult against their political opponents is proof that their professed love for homosexuality is false and purely virtue signaling. Homosexuality, just like black racial integration and Third World immigration, is merely another biological weapon for our woke globalist overlords to use against their victims, primarily straight right-wing white men. For all their howling about their "love" of diversity, no white liberal wants to live in a neighborhood of blacks or Pakistanis, and no straight liberal wants to be mistaken for gay.

That's a good analogy. I read SI starting in the 1960s as a kid and then off and on for many years. I've cited it in the Caste Football Time Machine thread a few times as I like to re-read old issues occasionally to remember the flavor of a much better country that's now long gone. But it's been at least 20 years since I had any interest in it.

Another publication, not as well known but an institution in its own right was The Sporting News. Owned by the Spinks family and run out of St. Louis starting in the 1880s, it was the source for everything baseball and eventually expanded to cover sports in general. But it followed the same arc as SI, eventually transforming from a serious publication to a fluff-filled piece of crap after it was sold to corporate interests. The print version shut down in 2012 and there's still a website but I never read or hear anything about it. In other words, it has zero influence and deservedly so.

It's not only the left that destroys everything it touches, it's also large corporations in general. They're impersonal and ultimately anti-human, sucking the soul out of everything good in society.

Yeah I was a long time Packers' Report subscriber and when the Packers were a bit of a hobby for me to follow it was nice to read something about the team written by former jocks, sports writers that loved the game and dudes that really loved the Packers football lore, then corporate came along and like all of America 1.0 good bye.

They're the same thing.. very little about large corporations that is real capitalism.

This is what bothers me the most about the caste system in sports and the cultural Marxism permeating society in general.

It is not blacks that hold the caste system up. They are beneficiaries of it, but it is whites who created and constructed its existence. Has there ever been a case where a racial group has actively worked for its own demise? I don’t think so, at least in my knowledge.

This is a unique white problem and it begs the question: how weak-willed can we be? For all our greatness, we sure exhibit a lot of mental inferiority in this regard.

I expect blacks to promote their own: for Asians and Indians to promote their own. I expect whites to do the same (and they do still in Eastern Europe) but alas we are defeated due to our weakness.

It’s also possible that the hard times that we are bringing down on ourselves will lead to some actual leadership emerging and whites push back. It’s by no means assured but it is possible.
