I can never think about Larry Sweeney without a strange mix of joy and sadness. Never knew the guy but just his wrestling persona was so much larger than life and he was dripping in charisma. Also one of the absolute joys of watching Chikara back in the day for his promos & his commentary & him jawing with kids in the audience.

Yeah Dream is, now that we have a couple years to put it together, basically trying to suck up to Trips/Vince nonstop.

Yeah, it's pretty much the same with me. I got into wrestling as a fan and not just a passive watcher of the tv show thanks to Chikara, and he is such a fundamental part of the time period that brought me in.

Meltzer is the microwave that the internet has placed its testicles in.

He's a cause through little fault of his own, not the disease itself.

Meltzer is one of the least critical journalists of wwe. Like he has his point of view and his preferences but he rarely just shits on wwe to poo poo on it.

I consider myself in a really weird place of not really liking Meltzer and thinking he's got kind of a weird following but also not thinking its some toxic or terrible thing or that its terrible that he's sometimes kinda critical of WWE or something.

If I'm reading it correctly, maybe this analogy will be more helpful – Meltzer is the cigarette we all put into our own butts and smoke the cigarette all the way down past the filter using our own butts, but isn't the cancer our butts get from the cigarette.

I mean, I thankfully largely avoided Gamergate so I can't speak with authority but people have been making really bad "you can't criticize X if you've never Xed" arguments forever about everything. Athletes, actors, writers, musicians, you name it. If there's a self important, thin skinned artist being criticized by someone then there's some rear end in a top hat making the argument that criticism is inherently wrong and bad, probably while also making criticisms themselves.
