Caitlin Clark left the U.S. Olympic basketball team because she is a white heterosexual woman in a world that has replaced “Christian/patriarchal culture” with “secular/matriarchal culture,” according to conservative sports podcaster Jason Whitlock.
“The Yas Queens and Khaleesi Queens create eunuchs, sluts, uneducated, criminal r******, identity dysphoria and chaos,” Whitlock wrote on X, pointing the finger at everyone he blames for Clark’s Olympic criticism .
The problem, according to the 57-year-old bachelor, is that Team USA and women’s basketball in general prioritize “bigotry” against Christians and heterosexuals over basketball. And as he said in the podcast on Monday, he sees this trend as part of a larger feminization of America.
“This is a group of angry lesbians who choose sexual identity over what’s best for business,” said Whitlock, who made a similar point last week.
“They want to go to the Essence Festival and sleep with whatever woman they want,” Whitlock continued, referring to an annual concert hosted by the magazine. ‘They want to protect their sexual promiscuity. They want to protect their job security because corporate America is so overrun with women, diversity, equality and inclusion. Everyone is afraid of women and that’s why they’re afraid to tell the truth about women, especially black women.”

Whitlock then read an advertisement offering “free bacon for life” before listing what he believes are the shortcomings of all women.
“It’s the nature of women,” Whitlock said.
“If you sit here and listen to us as we have a conversation about who built this, this American deal… They didn’t build because it’s not in their nature. They protect and cherish. They don’t build.’
Clark currently ranks 16th in the WNBA with 16.3 points per game, though she has struggled shooting this season, shooting just 33 percent from deep (50th in the league).
Whitlock made it clear on X and on his podcast that Team USA was keen to work with Magic Johnson in 1992, shortly after the Lakers legend revealed he had HIV.
And for Whitlock, it’s proof that Team USA chose business over politics at the time.
“In 1992, at a time when fears of HIV/AIDS were high, men chose to spend the summer playing basketball at Magic Johnson as the NBA sought to grow its game internationally,” Whitlock wrote on X, referencing the famous Dream Team. “Now that we live in a totally feminized, secular culture, the thought of interacting with Caitlin Clark fans petrifies WNBA players, the BLM-LGBTQIA+ Alphabet Mafia and their ‘allies.’
“Just thirty years ago, men chose business over bigotry. Thirty-two years later, Bigotry is chosen over doing what’s best for business.
‘Christian/patriarchal culture > secular/matriarchal culture.
“It really is that simple,” he continued. ‘It only takes three decades to radically change a culture. People have no idea how masculinity has forever shaped American culture. We can’t see what we’re sacrificing in the name of girl power and feminism.
“Christian masculine men don’t hate women. They simply understand the consequences of matriarchal rule.”

On his podcast, Whitlock complimented Clark for going to a “Catholic” high school and having parents with “normal American heterosexual values.”
But while Whitlock portrays Clark as a martyr to Christianity, the rising WNBA star has voiced no complaints about the criticism.
“I think it just gives you something to work for,” Clark told reporters on Sunday. ‘It is a dream. Hopefully I can be there one day. I think it’s just a little more motivation. You remember that. Hopefully I can be there in four years’ time.’
Whitlock is undeniably right about one thing: The WNBA is having a record-breaking season with fans.
Attendance is up 17 percent from last season and more than half of this year’s WNBA games are sold out – a 156 percent increase from last year.
Meanwhile, merchandise sales on the league’s website are up 756 percent, while subscriptions to the WNBA’s streaming service are up 335 percent.
Of course, not everyone credits Clark for the new fans. Many, including Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese, have argued that the league’s newfound success is due to more than just Clark.
Team USA’s rosters have yet to be released, but it’s safe to say there is plenty of American talent outside of Clark. Heading into the Paris Games this summer, the Americans have won seven straight Olympic gold medals.
