I'd prefer a more hands on approach but it's okay that we can disagree about these things, there are more than one right answers here

That fox news clip hurt to watch. To think boomers park their asses in front of the tv 8 hours a day piping this into their fucking brains.

I literally couldn’t get through it. Lee Zeldin is also a soulless husk and if he somehow wins in New York I will be calling a-guy

lol thank fuck it looks like he doesnt have much time left on this earth.

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

Also looks like he wouldn't be able to catch the children he wants to assault.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

I don't think the children are in too much danger.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

MMA fanboy chuds stanning for that chud might endanger the children.

EDIT 2: After learning otherwise, I will take the L on this one and stop associating pro wrestling and MMA fandoms so much.

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

EDIT: Oops, seems like a pro wrestling chud, not a MMA chud, which has a super distinct fandom difference with no overlap.

Honestly Ulysses coming from someone you dont have an existing grudge with hopefully itll go over easier, most hardcore MMA fans have a disdain for pro wrestling because they're overly proud their sport is "Real".

Also, it should be noted that they've done polls on this and Pro Wrestling fans are actually one of the most left leaning sports fandoms. While MMA leans right.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

That is news to me. I believe you now, I really do.

Also, it should be noted that they've done polls on this and Pro Wrestling fans are actually one of the most left leaning sports fandoms. While MMA leans right.

I didn't know that, and that pleasantly surprises me. I will take the L on this one and stop associating the two groups so much.

Here's the poll. Turns out I was wrong about UFC fans being that much more right leaning then wrestling fans. It actually lands on the left side of the poll's spectrum too. More rightward than WWE/wrestling but only by a bit. I also forgot the poll frames it as "democrat and republican" lol, which is annoying, but judging by /r/SquaredCircle's views on social issues im fairly confident there are a lot of wrestling fans who are at worst radlibs.

ETA: Wait no, i misread the graph, ufc has almost no lean whatsoever.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

My head's spinning by now. I'll just not make the association in the future and save myself a toxic fan getting weird on me again that way.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

This isn't the first time I've seen this poll, but every time I do I want to dismiss the results because there's no way any more than a single digit number described themselves as a fan of Grand-Am.

[-] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

I honestly don't know too many people who fuck with both pro wrestling and mma. Seems like the fandoms are stay somewhat separated. I am well aware of the chud fandom within MMA, but ay thats why I mostly go to local promotions and pirate all the PPVs lol.

And while i wouldnt say im like "proud" of it being real over wrestling, i would like to keep them separate. Hell now that WWE and UFC has merged somewhat under a parent company, im straight up moving to watch ONE FC instead from Singapore and Thailand. Hell, even the wrestling fans i know aren't happy with the merger and think they shouldnt be that close.

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I know people that like both but even they like them for completely different reasons and dont see them as associated. Having UFC and WWE as one company sucks lol but it wasnt the worst option on the table (the Saudis were in play) though I'm mad that Vince is still in any level of power, even if no longer absolute power.

[-] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Dana White and Vince McMahan in the same company is waaaaaaaaay way way overboard on the amount of slime even for a corporation like endeavor.

Last i heard Vince McMahan is running TKO, the parent to both UFC and WWE so as far as i know he has even more control and possibly could be one of Dana White's bosses. Which is....horrific.

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Holding out hope that thats a miserable situation for both of them!

[-] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

If that clip looked like mma to u then i am horrified by what you think mma is lol

that clip wasn't even WWE, it was like a parody that people who roast WWE make

[-] SoloboiNanook@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

Honestly looks like some shit from one of those signs i occasionally see posted in the country. Just a yard sale sign with BACKYARD WRESTLING: THIS WAY written on it lol.

I seen anyone assaulting a child, I am not holding anything back

I will hurt them

[-] Cummunism@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

you can use self defense if someone else is being attacked, sure would be a shame if we found out very soon how CTE damaged his brain is. Someone could move that autopsy date up by a lot.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

According to these fascists, the trans people are waiting to assault women and children; this is some pre-emptive shit on the level of fascists that want to gun down "looters" the moment the lights go out during a hurricane.

CW: SA

This guy was also accused of sexual harassment by a Fox News co-worker and they basically made the lawsuit go away. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrus_(wrestler)#Sexual_harassment_allegation

Wonderful that he's volunteering himself to meet our good friends, Smith and Wesson! (in Grand Theft Auto 5)

[-] CommunistBarbie@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

oh damn. hope this transphobic chud gets shot to death in a random act of violence.

I hope it's non-random

That's very interesting sir, now could you please face the wall?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I sincerely doubt he'd be able to catch any trans person fit enough to compete in any sport. The thing about athletes is that they're generally athletic. This guy couldn't run more than 15 steps before coughing up his lungs.

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Did you see the clip of his last match that I posted in here lol.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

frothingfash: The trans mafia are trying to force their beliefs on us! Authoritarianism! They're groomers, won't you think of the children!?

also frothingfash: I will assault children.

Wtf the Funkasaurus is 50 and an actual fucking monster? picard-direct-action

[-] heiferlips@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

That tub ain’t assaulting anything except another bucket of chicken.

What a turd of a human.

[-] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

TERF voice: We should put this guy into the girls' locker room to keep our children safe.

Ooo, boasting about beating up kids. Get a load of this tough guy
