I learned what should have been an obvious lesson: most people on social media do not want to engage in nuanced and thoughtful conversation. It’s all about the Likes, and “dunking” on people and assuming the worst about anyone.

From now on, I won’t be stingy with the “block” button.

That seems like a shoot.

Considering you wish injuries on pro wrestlers, I’m glad to be a stranger to you. Yuck.

I hate WWE and don’t watch it, but this is absolutely wrong and beyond fucked up.

Is that Jay Malachi?

Santana is such a mark for himself. Can't wait until Triple K gives him a racist gimmick.

SO MUCH BLOOD ON THESE MOTHERFUCKERS' HANDS. And the New York Times might be the worst.

Because, if the regular American professional media sucks enough to have enabled Trump, or at least allowed Trump to happen, imagine how much worse the non-professional wrestling "media" is.

People who unironically refer to random WWE wrestlers as "WWE Superstars" are absolute fucking dorks. 🤼 #Wrestlesky

Amazing

Right-wingers literally straight-up admitting "it's harder to discredit the left because the left is almost always telling the truth"
Scott Jennings @Lum 21h um, yes, that's really a problem

The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality rightwing content.
That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well.
In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly arent usually on our side.

This senile liar who currently occupies the White House does not remember that he was President on January 6th.

If you voted for this senile liar, and if you enable him today, you clearly are ok with breaking America. The ruins of our once great nation are because of you.

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Ari Cohn @aricohn.com · 2d

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

A cowboy.

Pathetic loser.

Given who actually won… turns out he did have a shot.

This game was incredible. I can’t imagine someone who claims to like baseball saying otherwise, let alone someone paid to talk about it.

I feel pretty confident in saying that, while the majority of Puerto Ricans do support maintaining some sort of relationship with the U.S., they do not support Statehood. Something as momentous as Statehood should have overwhelming support - like 65-75% - to be considered the will of P.R.

Well, if the "election results" counted the exorbitant amount of people who voted on every other "papeleta" but either left the referendum one blank or wrote something on it in protest, then I would be open to counting those election results.

If the viewership really believed in what they say they believe, they would simply stop watching.

🇵🇷Chuck Martin @singlemalttheory42.bsky.social · 3d

This one appears to not be a gringo. If it’s a deluded Penepé eñangotao who - whether cynically or naively - wants to argue that those sham referenda were legit, I can’t do much. What pissed me off is non-Ricans butting into our shit.
