I think it's more that mma is a sport where the kind of weirdos who would listen to Spencer thrive just by happenstance so he's trying to appeal to them and get some kind of support

I've seen techbros and stockbrokers having bitch sessions about the local team with sidewalk shoeshine dudes who they'd otherwise never talk to. there was some essay about this somewhere that basically said liberals/leftists should become sports fans if they want to work on their image problems with the working class

I thought ufc/mma's position on that chart was kinda weird, but I guess it's an age thing the people dragging it down to the bottom of voter engagement are the same people keeping it on the left side of the line, the gigantic mass of politically disengaged young people; it just feels like a right-wing sport because alt-right douchebags are the only ufc fans who care about politics much at all

Yeah, it's probably MMA's crossover with wrestling and the poorer working class. Also I didn't realise that the data is five years old (It was posted in the wrestling forum recently), and MMA might be the one sport where it could have shifted over that time (but probably not as much as you'd think). Still, you have to remember that many 'uncouth working poor' who watch combat sports are democrats (compared to say, rodeo). The oversight of not recognising that political identity was basically the thing that cost the Democrats the election.

Not sure if this belongs in Woke Brands or here, but w/e:quote:Cahill’s suggestions belied his ignorance of reporting and lack of sensitivity to social issues, according to former staffers. Cahill wanted to replicate the success of New York magazine’s cover story with photos of women who had accused Bill Cosby of rape, said the staffer who covered social justice issues, and suggested they “do a similar roundup” with survivors of sexual assault. “‘Maybe campus rape, maybe not...whatever! Just find rape victims and get them to share their stories!’” the staffer recalled in an email, mocking the tone. quote:Mic, perhaps seeing the writing on the wall, had already hired Bleacher Report veteran Michael Cahill in May 2015 as its director of search engine optimization. His task was to translate Mic’s Facebook optimization process to Google. This meant analyzing search trends in order to generate key phrases — everything from “What time is the convention” and “Watch Trump’s speech live” to “How to pick up women” — and assigning those key phrases to a staff of SEO writers, who then reverse-engineered stories around them. “He starts building this little team. They’re off in their own world. Garbage poo poo. Typos everywhere. ‘Keyword keyword 2017 colon how when where why.’ These poor kids are writing like ten of these a day,” said the former staffer who left in late 2016. “That strategy just kind of overtook the entire newsroom. The desk editors would have weekly meetings with his little lackey… they would have a spreadsheet of like 50 different story ideas that had a bunch of keywords in them, and we had to sit down and assign them to writers together.”

i am mixed with the whedon poo poo. on one hand it doesnt surprise me that he was a hypocritical shitfuck who covered up his own moral failings by making GBS threads on others. woke idpol purists are the left equivalent of evangelicals culture warriors(cept at least the wokes have their heart in the right place) but why are they treating being a decent person(not being a bigot/respecting others) are some weird religious cult. https://twitter.com/radicalbytes/status/899428956352294912 https://twitter.com/radicalbytes/status/899438698223198209 https://twitter.com/radicalbytes/status/899459842158370817 i get what he means but assholes like him sound like its loving death cult. no wonder shitheads like weadon and that movie critic date rapist can slip in so loving easy.
