Hulk Hogan waved an American flag while wearing up a picture of Qaddafi and fought the personifications of Iran, USSR, and Iraq

Yeah, hasn't the WWE desecrated quite a few flags of other countries at this point? Iraq, Iran, Japan, France, Canada, etc.

But when it came time to burn the American flag, it was actually a Hulkamania shirt.

I take someone saying "I don't like _____ getting political" as conservative shorthand for "I don't like _____ because they expressed a liberal opinion"

They did SmackDown Your Vote for at least ten years.

Smackdown your vote had one of the greatest moments ever though of letting John Morrison and Miz do events and because they were "heel" they were allowed to be vocally pro-Obama

There was an event where John Morrison is like "Who's voting for Obama!" and the crowd cheers, and then he is like "Who is voting for McCain" and like two dudes cheered and Morrison pointed right at them and went "You suck"

wreddit found out he used to post racist poo poo (or Nazi poo poo) on the bodybuilding forums I haven't seen the posts myself so I don't know if it was just lol edgy racism or I beat off to American society X racism.

Well I mean, that post sounded like they were using the racism to cover the fact they just don't like him as a wrestler

Like, I knew about the racism stuff and it is horrible, I didn't get why they wouldn't like him as a wrestler just in a vacuum

I think he was saying they were virtue signaling which is a really bad faith argument. A lot of Reddit is poo poo but I’m willing to bet the people calling Lars out aren’t the ones clamoring to post in a racist Asian jokes thread. No ones using Lars awful opinions as an excuse to go after him because they don’t like him as a wrestler

GEORGE W BUSHI posted:

His tweets have been a guilty pleasure of mine since MRT first posting him in this topic. He's a staunch WWE apologist who takes any angle to poo poo on non-WWE wrestling. He went from calling Naito lazy because he wears a T-shirt on ROH to pretending Naito has always been his favourite wrestler so he could join in the second guessing about WK12 to get likes on his anti-NJPW posts.

The absolute greatest thing he did was try to deflect from WWE Saudi Arabia by pointing out that NJPW employed ZSJ who supports Jeremy Corbyn.

Same here. Im fascinated by his terrible tweets. In addition to the ones you mentioned, which are very good, I also like it whenever he tries to gatekeep or when he does that thing where he relates current poo poo in WWE to other wrestling that is considered near universally good. Specifically, he must have at least half a dozen tweets each talking about how Roman Reigns would be an amazing gaijin in 90's All Japan or how Miz vs Bryan was an 80's Memphis match. Like you said, he is one of the most staunch WWE defenders but at the same time almost comes off as insecure about liking it. In the end, he just comes off as having no knowledge of anything.

BREADAGRAM OF PROTECTION
I don't know if that's insecurity, or if he's just trying to talk about things in the ways that ~The Workers~ talk about stuff. He probably hears these kinds of comparisons made on wrestling podcasts and wants to adapt that language to have an air of authority about it, just based off of vague assumptions of what he thinks those eras were.
