“If you’re gay or transgender, I love you. And if anyone gives you any shit, tell em Charles says f*ck you!” - Charles Barkley pic.twitter.com/c1tUbvX5ga— Ned Balme (@NedBalmeLives) July 15, 2022
He's basically the embodiment of "conservative who whines about everything". He hates on vegans for no reason with the same old talking points on shows and stuff like that.
I'm pretty surprised he said this, but this might be the token "correct about one specific issue" thing that happens a lot.
In Barkley's defense, never once have I heard him cast blame or aspersions onto the houseless people themselves, and San Francisco (in my opinion) fucking sucks. It's genuinely depressing with how insanely rampant the homeless / addiction / housing affordability / access problems are, and how disgustingly indifferent the lib brogrammer population is. You can't walk one block without seeing a human being in abject misery.
You are correct that Charles does not use his platform to effectively point out the roots of these problems, ie capitalist land speculation. But in a just world, San Francisco as it exists today would burn.
Chuck's first good opinion.
What has he been shitty about before?

Oh I was just talking about his outdated views on how to play basketball.
He's kind of a dinosaur in that he thinks that shooting teams are playing wrong or bound to lose. He thinks everyone should be powering to the rim.
His take made obviously wrong because, you know, the Warriors.
