Good to know Leslie Lee Three! Surely Cornette will immediately drop his artist for the racist implications!

I do love that Leslie uses the same excuse that Ron Paul fans used for the racist stuff in the Ron Paul Newsletter.

Honestly, its not that deep. People just see a black man and a gorilla and automatically think racism. All Jim said was "I dont care if Mighty Joe Young or Cheetah can do all the moves, it doesn't matter if they aren't pushed as a threat." Pretty much saying Swerve and Fletcher can have an amazing match but you cant see Fletch as a threat cuz all he's done is lose. He's not calling Swerve a gorilla but they're purposely leaving out context to make you think the worst thing possible.
Do not give Jim Cornette any benefit of the doubt. Ever.

Why is it always that you just need to understand the lore of Cornette's stupid references, and if you do these things advertising his work aren't actually racist/sexist/homophobic/just kind of dumb?

You don't have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero.
If the past nine months of AEW programming have made it clear, you need Nigel McGuinness to hand-hold fans through people doing a straight-as-an-arrow over-the-top movie parody (Toni Storm and Sunset Boulevard, Mariah May and All About Eve, Roderick Strong shouting names like Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate), so the "whell ackchually" brigade should sit down tbh.

Kenny Omega is gay and that's bad but he's also a pedophile who's been grooming Riho for the past fifteen years and that's also bad.

The mind of Jimmy Corncob is a strange thing.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

He really wants to convince us all that he is brand new to watching pro wrestling while also having all of the cornette lines on speed dial

I don’t know if you would consider that a point but it appears to be the song and dance he has chosen to perform

No it's just really obvious that you can work up a thread that's about "thing bad" by going "thing good" so he's doing that. He has one gimmick. This is better than when he did the pro-Israel bit.

But yeah, it doesn't really take a lot of effort to figure out what's going to push buttons here lol
