Major League Baseball was badly burned when the league unwisely chose to move the annual All-Star Game out of Atlanta after being pressured by Joe Biden.
The decision infuriated conservatives who more than any major sports league represent the largest percentage of baseball fans. According to a Morning Consult poll, ratings have already collapsed with Republicans by 35 percent.
Now, in a curious decision, MLB has chosen to survey fans on their political affiliation, possibly to assess the damage to their brand among conservatives who like other sports that went “woke” are choosing to tune out in great numbers or for more sinister reasons.
Either way, it isn’t going to do much to address the self-inflicted damage for bending the knee over the Georgia election integrity law and such an intrusive question may even contribute to MLB’s woes.
MLB is asking fans about their political affiliation in surveys distributed to game attendees. https://t.co/whMHZINhcg

here’s a idea – NO MLB Allstar Game. Eliminates the controversy….which should have been a controversy.
What was it Star Trek Spock said……needs of the MANY outweigh the needs of the few!
Hello?
My approach to all who support this marxist luciferian revolution. GO WOKE GO BROKE..
screw all paid sports and actors – they think they own us, when we pay their salary…
My political affiliation is very plain an simple. When politics in any manner are incorporated in any sport tells me DO NOT ATTEND. That has been my policy for years now. I quit buying their products also.
I refuse to go to any sport to be indoctrinated into someone else beliefs. There has been no pro sports since the idiotic bended knee and political innuendoes.
I went to get away from every day BS indoctrination and relax.
I now watch College sports where there is no political influence on the fans.
Good job MLB. Keep sheading fans with stupidity!
MLB/BLM rushing to answer the question: How do you further screw up a debacle?
They’ll probably build a webpage or an app so the few remaining fans can dox themselves!
Done, finished, kaput! Give it back to the Russkies!
Who cares I’m done with sports and I have a lot more time and money
I’m done with baseball for the year, maybe forever. That’s how I react to them trying to steal my joy!
