When it comes to hurling social commentary at some of the most polarizing figures in America, Jason Whitlock seems to have placed a target on the likes of Colin Kaepernick, Kamala Harris, Black Lives Matter, and former U.S. President Barack Obama, amongst others. In a recent episode of Fearless with Jason Whitlock, the outspoken on-air personality attempted to give perspective to the current state of American society by blaming the 44th U.S. President for creating an environment where entertainers like Lil Nas X and trans athletes like Lia Thomas are being openly accepted more than ever before.
"Just like [President] Lincoln's legacy is he freed the slaves, [President] Obama's legacy is he freed the gays, that's just a fact," Whitlock said. "This sounds like I have this great animous towards the LGBT community, I'm sorry I do not. I don't have great animous for them, I just don't. I just happen to think that some of their lifestyle choices mirror some of my own sinful lifestyle choices. I don't think their lifestyle choices are healthy, just like my sexual promiscuity. I don't think it was healthy...And so all I'm saying is that Barack Obama's real agenda, real legacy, was about the LGBTQ and so those of you who thought you bought the BET package, didn't get Black Entertainment Television; what you got is where we're at today. His legacy lives on."
