A magazine’s claim about Black men in football did not sit well with users on Twitter.
The Scientific American published an opinion article titled, “Damar Hamlin’s Collapse Highlights the Violence Black Men Experience in Football.”
The outlet shared the article on Twitter with the caption, “The ‘terrifyingly ordinary’ nature of football’s violence disproportionately affects Black men.”
Comedian David Angelo reacted, tweeting, “When people ask for a definition of ‘woke,’ I’d probably say ‘clumsily using race and/or gender to launder stupidty for financial gain.'”
One user wrote, “Thanks, Scientific American, for using a man’s tragedy as political whining under the guise of ‘science.'”
Writer Christina Sommers replied, “Another absurd and incoherent article in the once-serious Scientific American.”
Columnist Kurt Schlichter simply wrote, “Shut up.”
