The eternal whirring of the Caitlin Clark conspiracy machine has shifted into a new gear

The Indiana Fever star’s so-called fans are intent on casting her as a victim. The narrative is an injustice to the guard and her fellow players

When Caitlin Clark entered the WNBA she brought along an audience unlike any the league had ever seen: millions of casual fans who weren’t necessarily interested in women’s basketball, but were nonetheless intrigued by this ponytailed wonder shooting three-pointers from the half-court logo. Three years since she became a household name at the University of Iowa, the 24-year-old Indiana Fever star hasn’t just become a potent vessel for culture-war anxieties and grievances. She has been cast in the role of a victim under siege from jealous rivals, negligent referees and league officials who resent her popularity and influence. Every snub becomes an obvious clue in hindsight for her most extreme fans, every controversy an open-and-shut case.

Last week, the WNBA released a poster to commemorate its 30th anniversary, and it hit the internet like a Magic Eye picture from the 1990s. Rubberneckers looked right past the 20 players who made the cut and started asking about the one who didn’t: Clark. “I assume the back side is just a photo of CC,” one Facebook user snarked. “I mean she saved the league.”

Signet City – futuristic parasites feed off 80s social realism in dystopian RPG

A preview of the forthcoming sci-fi game from Gareth Damian Martin showcases their unmistakable talent for innovation and game design

Over the past decade, an impression has taken root among gamers that any real creativity and originality in the industry is to be found in the indie, rather than mainstream, sector. Gareth Damian Martin can claim some responsibility for that. Their first game, 2020’s In Other Waters, merged sci-fi and underwater xenobiology in a uniquely calming and thought-provoking manner, while Citizen Sleeper (2022) and Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector (2025) were full-blown sci-fi epics with ultraminimal aesthetics and a rare intelligence.

Martin has broken with tradition by unveiling their next game, Signet City, far in advance of its 2027 launch. Set in a dystopian monochrome city, it’s a narrative role-playing adventure with a curious first-person perspective. “You play as a parasite,” says Martin. “And it felt natural that it should be a game where you see the world through the eyes of your hosts, very literally. You wake up in the mind of a person called Sid at the same time as she’s waking up in the river of a city. You’re coming to understand what you are, why it is that you’re in the mind of this person who doesn’t know that you’re there, along with what your capabilities are, and what the world is, through Sid.”
