OFFICIAL RACIST

quote:

This point isn't raised enough whenever there's a thread on here started by someone moaning that their favourite NXT wrestler hasn't received fantasy booking on the main roster.

A lot of wrestlers who have moved to the main roster from NXT deserve their low place on the card because they're crap, rather than them being great talents simply held down by senile Vince which is the usual story that's spun.

Imagine seriously thinking its the performers fault they fail on the main roster instead of Vince.

GamerGate broke a big portion of the internet because people don't understand how journalism and popular critics work. The idea that journalists may have friendly relationships with sources and critics having their own tastes as subjective people is conflated with being bribed for good coverage (which obviously also does happen, directly and indirectly, in many fields) and not being 'objective' (which is insane as there is no such thing in art)

Artistic Objectivity is just Absolute Subjectivity on how art should be made. Which is doubly why I disliked Squared Circle's opinion that the WWE "House Style" was the best style.

I recognize that I shouldn't engage with the folks who have brainworms, but I've seen a lot of people today complaining about Dave Meltzer saying in the mailbag segment of Saturday's Wrestling Observer Radio that he didn't think that Harper would ever return, and then reporting in last night's WOR that Harper was contacted on Friday to be a part of the show, is an indication that Dave doesn't know what he's talking about?

Do any of these turds understand the difference between opinion and reporting?

reminder that almost none of them have ever listened to a WOR so it goes from Dave saying “I don’t think they have plans right now for Harper to be back” to some scoopz site hearing it and reporting “Dave Meltzer doesn’t think Harper will be back” to another site seeing that and reporting “Harper won’t be back - Dave Meltzer” and then r/sc thinks Dave is falsely reporting stuff

People would surely pay good money to subscribe for pure, objective wrestling journalism. Just give me match results and press releases and keep the "opinions" out of it! It's not too late for Dave to change course and finally start to make a living off of his newsletter.

The Hairy Wrestling Fan (of poetry fame) announced he quit his job last week. Cultaholic tweeted that they'd hired him today and encouraged everyone to welcome him to the site.

It was immediately revealed that he likes to DM dick pics to women and the tweet announcing his hire has been deleted.

He’s a con artist, seems to have a huge problem with women, acts smug on Twitter, never apologizes or acknowledges when he’s incorrect, he accused Roman of being misleading about what kind of cancer he had, he called Goldust a transvestite, he called Sable an ugly stripper, he called Peyton Royce fat (no wait, he was talking about his tits), he said Vince McMahon would put on a show for Nazis (no wait, he was talking about “pre-WW2 Nazis”), multiple wrestlers have called him out for lying about their injuries, he incorrectly predicted “Roman’s coronation” for about eight months in a row, and most recently he said you’d never see a dude again 24 hours before that dude showed up again.

But mostly, it’s really loving funny to make fun of him because people get so upset, like you’ve personally insulted their girlfriend or something.
