He's saying AEW's audience loves former Blackhawks forward Mikhail Yakubov.

I can't tell if Alfred is just a typical twitter grifter or legitimately one of those "You're not x enough to be x race" type of racists. I just know that a lot of black wrestling twitter absolutely can't stand him

He can no longer sense morality and only sees the world in terms of how much "engagement" things will bring him. His unconscious mind seeks out the hottest of takes which occur to him as if they were his true thoughts.

I think Alfred is one of those dangerously stupid online personalities that just absorb things into their brains and spit them out like it's an original thought. He gets fed the fast nationals, spits em out with no context or understand of why they're misleading, then disappears into the ether for a day or two. Somebody probably once mentioned Yakub to him and that's floating around in there until he decides to call Claudio "rookie of the year" or once again argue that AEW doesn't have enough black champions.

If Alfred hadn't tweeted, I wouldn't have bothered to refresh myself on Yakub, which means I wouldn't have learned that Farrakhan got really into dianetics and now theres a bunch of NoI scientology auditors So thank you Alfred

Someone needs to find a clip of Louis Farrakhan ranting about charcuterie. Alfred is definitely one of those guys who hears a word once and then repeats it in a wrong context because he thinks it makes him look smart. He heard white people being called that once but knows nothing about what it means or where it comes from.

My favourite thing Alfred does is directly and indirectly slag off people like Tony Khan on Twitter and then the moment they respond to him he becomes all "Notice me, senpai".

Using NoI slang ironically has also become a thing on Twitter. Ironic racism is still racism but it's against white people so who cares, bunch of butter demons anyways

Someone in this thread already explained what helped popularize it as a modern pop culture thingFart Radio posted:desus and mero would call things yakubian all the time as a joke, because it's far too obscure to carry any actual weight as a slur Ironic hotepism is very common in black online spaces; it’s how you get poo poo like the memes of Cody in a kufi
