Vince killed a wrestler by cheaping out on a harness, leading to the wrestler (Owen Hart, who was universally beloved) falling like, 80 feet to his death. his fall broke the ring and Vince proceeded to continue the whole show, forcing Owen’s friends to preform in said broken ring that was still covered in Owen’s blood. also the whole “Chris Benoit murders his family and kills himself” deal, covering up ongoing sexual abuse of trainees (and then *rehiring* the abuser), setting up a massive deal to run shows in Saudi Arabia, covering up the assault that wrestler Ashley Massaro suffered during a show for the US military (she eventually took her own life)… there’s so much more there that he just didn’t bother with.

BtB has gone downhill and it’s a huge bummer. used to be appointment listening for me. also drives me mad that other CZM pods are pushed into the feed for it. I’ve scooted over to listening to the Swindled podcast. extremely grim and in-depth, only one host and he uses a fair amount of audio from news and interviews.

teen witch posted:Antifascism means that we also support people ditching fascism, especially if they got into it as a stupid kid. I think, if anything, we need to make a bigger point that anyone can leave the hatred behind and join the rest of humanity. It won’t be easy, sure, but it should absolutely be encouraged and supported. this is such a perfect way to say it, thank you.
