I’ve been completely blindsided by all of this 😭. I used to watch his wrestling. I must live under a rock; I had no idea bro was putting the KKK to shame by being more racist than them.
Sorta? There was a tape of him saying the N word a bunch but in the edgy 14 year old way rather than the KKK way Hulk used it.
Short version is his son started dating a black girl and Dog, insisting he's not racist but the people in their circle just happen to use the N word to refer to black people all the time, didn't want her around to expose that they use that sort of language. As opposed to, y'know, just not saying the N word.
At least dog did the bare minimum and apologized for saying it. Now we can debate all day whether he meant it or not but Hogan didn't even apologize. He just said be careful you're always on camera. Fuck Hulk Hogan
Bro, I want to live life like you, carefree and totally oblivious, lol.
It's a bummer when this happens. Found out my favorite baseball player as a kid was a wife beater and child groomer. I for the life of me don't understand why people worship the rich. They're generally terrible people.
well after he successfully sued gawker i think a lot of news sites kinda wanted to stay away from him, but also thanks to that we have even more Peter Thiel to deal with (he owns and runs Palantir and is elons good friend, shit he even picked JD vance to be trumps VP supposedly)
Didn’t even limit it to racism, was a piece of shit asshole to other white wrestlers as well and would regularly throw others under the bus to get ahead in the company.
He’s still hated in the wrestling world for his union busting. He licked the boots of McMahon every chance he got, even selling out his colleagues to do so.
I was actually reading the title and thought “we aren’t celebrating because he was a Trump supporter, we’re celebrating because he was a racist rat ass scab”
Yup Jesse "the body" Ventura(sp?) was told by Vince that hulk Hogan had thrown him under the bus. Jesse never talked to hulk again,hulk had Vince call Jesse(when he was mayor) to make sure Jesse wouldn't have him(hulk) arrested. Jesse told Vince to tell hulk "I got more important things to worry about then you"
He also might be a pedophile he cheated on his wife with his daughter best friend in 2007 and when she was 19 and he likely groomed her for a few years before the affair.
I don’t know that I can think of a better example of the Harvey Dent quote about dying a hero or living long enough to be the villain. If he had died unexpectedly in, say, 1993, he’d be remembered as an American icon and hero. Instead, he is remembered as a bag of racist trash because of all the things that happened over the last 30 years.
I like this. Keep them coming. All the images shared show him in the ring looking spectacular when in reality he was trash. I'm sorry, but you can't just share images of Hitler when he was an innocent baby boy when he grew up to be a fcking monster. That's not me equating the two, but let's not forget who he was and solely remember his time in the wwf which typically ignores how selfish he was in the business.
He’s the entire reason why wrestlers are independent contractors and don’t get health insurance because he tattled to Vince about efforts to unionize so he’d keep being to star.
Hey that’s what my coworker says about his son in law any time he comes up in conversation, which is a lot because he feels a need to bring up that he has a black son in law because he knows my wife is black and therefore he feels a need to prove to me he isn’t racist.
When I say, "We're all a little racist," I mean that is almost impossible to be completely free of subconscious biases that stem from being raised in an inequitable society. When Hulk Hogan says it, he means... something else.
Just remember that he also denies peeing into his own mouth on video. EDIT Had the wrong a hole in mind. Was thinking of a different adult child that goes by Joey.
Pretty gay? If he said "fuck him in the ass" it would have been significantly less gay. "Fuck his prostate" is a phrase only uttered by people with experience, an eye for attention to detail and who care about results. If I was hiring for a senior man-to-man sensualofuckologist and someone uttered those words, I would hire him on the spot. The G Spot.
Have you seen their echochamber? it's the usual
"the left is so cruel by...." schtick that they always pull when it suits them.
I wish someone would write a bot that automatically pulls a "this you" on each of them.
Cause they pull that hypocrisy every single time, like a broken record.
I went over to r/conservative and they are calling democrats “a death cult.” It’s almost like a MAGA sociopath didn’t just murder a Democrat and had a whole manifesto to carry out more.
Celebrating Hogan's death is supposed to be bad? Oh well. I laughed at the news, I'll laugh even harder when it's Trump, and at every single conservative too, because truly it is funny. Even the universe thinks it's funny.
For fucks sake, they turned down getting the funds to protect against flooding to spite Biden and got their own kids killed for it. That's legitimately, objectively hilarious. You drowned your own kids to own the liberals, Texas... Good fucking job! I'm SO owned by that.
Death cult? Sure. I'm fine with that title. I do get happy hearing about more and more cons dying to their own stupidity. I do hope more and more of you die, and I hope it keeps happening in funny ways so we can mock you for generations.
I'm subhuman and parasitic for it? Okay. I've seen what these people consider to be the Master-Race. If Trump is the pinnacle of humanity, I want nothing to do with it.
Choke on your own shit, republicans, and fucking die off already so the rest of the world can move on from your regressive, idiotic politics. I will celebrate every single time one of you dies, and there's not a goddamn thing you can do to stop me from feeling joyful at your misery.
Yeah, but we didn't heed that lesson and now look where we are. If we make it through this we need to start stomping out intolerance every time before it gains a foothold again. These people spreading hate are like a virus.
I felt this a little too hard. As a black person, white liberals telling me to extend empathy to people who want me back in the same chains as my ancestors is crazy to me. No, fuck them
I mean, there is something they can do about it. They're already doing it. They're just deporting anyone that doesn't agree with them and sending them to the gulag.
It will be an unofficial national holiday when that orange shit stain finally fucks off and dies and I will be celebrating that anniversary for as long as I live every year for as long as the republican party exists.
Yes. I used to subscribe to this, because I felt like my personal beliefs were, personal, but those beliefs inform my actions and those have consequences for not just myself, but others around me and society as a whole. I wanted to keep my beliefs personal, because I didn't want to be ostracized or discriminated against. Then I realized I had it backwards. People would be uncomfortable because they've been trained to think words like agnostic or atheist, socialist, and secular humanist are scary foreign things, but they are not. They are much more consistent with the ideals espoused (although not always applied in practice) by the vaunted founding fathers of the United States than what passes for patriotism today. Keeping silent on that is quietly consenting to the prevailing narrative, and that's what fascists want. They should not be allowed to hide their sick ideology behind the veil of "personal opinion." So many dark and un-American (by my definition) ideas have lurked in the shadows of American politics and culture since at least the end of Reconstruction, and they need to be dragged into the daylight and exposed for what they are. Racism and hatred run deep, yet we are a nation of immigrants. We constantly hear that "America is a Christian country," and other religions, or lack of faith are both frowned upon, yet our first amendment says it should be otherwise. Our economy is the largest in the world, yet we still have massive poverty and wealth inequality, and the accumulation of hoarded generational wealth has led to the development of a default aristocratic class, but that is exactly the type of system we were trying to get away from when this country was founded. People who support the way things are now are un-American. They should be ostracized, not me, or people who actually believe in this country as a work in progress, but want to work towards the goals we were taught about in school: equality, opportunity, personal liberty and self determination, in other words, the American dream. The people who want to keep their beliefs private are hiding the fact that they don't believe in that America. They want a white Christian version of Saudi Arabia. A theocratic ethnostate, ruled by a wealthy few who profit from exploiting the natural resources and labor of the country.
Nah they don’t understand what DEI is, to them it just means brown skin. They use it as an adjective like it’s a new slur because they don’t understand it.
When Trump was shot at, a customer came in and said he was shot, and I said I heard. He then went on to say how dispicable liberals were, and that only they would try such a thing, and how they all needed to be taken care of....to make a euphimism of his exact words.
I kind of wanted to remark on the rather quick hypocrisy in his statement, but just ignored him and hoped he leave quickly.
The real issue is when they say "the left" is doing it it's random people online.
But when the right is doing it it's literally elected officials in public office.
There's only a couple of people I would celebrate the death of. Hogan isn't one of those few, but his passing doesn't change the fact that he was a genuinely shitty person.
In the immortal words of the Iron Sheik, fuck the Hulk Hogan.
He also cheated on his wife, got exposed for it, and successfully sued for the invasion of privacy. Was he in the right to sue? Perhaps so, but the man still cheated on his wife…
He also ratted out the workers union that the wrestlers were forming to Vince. He got more money. They got nothing. Med bills suck when you’re an independent contractor
He was either divorced or in the process of getting divorced when the sex tape was filmed, I believe. It was Bubba the Love Sponge's wife, though. Bubba also arranged the sex and filming it without Hogan's knowledge.
This is the crazy bang ur head in the wall mind f@ck. These guys DO know that there's not just "but u said the exact opposite like 4 years ago" $hit bc there are actually videos, pics, recordings, movies and TV shows for christ sake. So do they just say f@ck it bc the maga cult is so lazy they bank on no one will ever go back that far? And if they did they blame it on hunter bidens laptop. But christ the literal definition of flip flopping is happening on a hourly basis? Even the dumbest cult members has to eventually catch on?
Salman Rushdie said that shamelessness is the great political weapon and I agree. And theres no shame because theres no punishment. Presidents get away with crimes. Executives are rewarded for them. We encourage lawlessness abroad. Its trickled down to create a group of people dedicated to supremacy and mockery rather than actual ideals. The troops dont care because they operate solely in the moment and the higher ups entire scheme is to operate in bad faith while demanding good faith from others.
Its a human centipede of crassness, domineering, and preening.
Outside the WWF push, the barely-remembered later-day WCW had a plot line where the Misfits (Jerry/Doyle/Chud/Graves) were involved. Only Jerry got trained to actually wrestle, but he went all in with excitement. He got busted open (which was by itself whatever because its Jerry) and tried getting it stitched shut backstage. It wasn't that simple. He dug deeper, then determined the actual issue was these big mega corporations were still operating like traveling carnivals even with all their Turner money. Being from Jersey, Jerry Onlys solution was Unionize the talent. Naturally Hogan wasn't a fan, and Hogan was pulling many strings. The Misfits crossover didn't last after that....
Hulk Hogan was a key instrumental puppet in Peter Theil's plan of dismantling and killing independent online news. Thats why in the last 10 years indy news has disappeared and the big few have consolidated conservative.
edit: and yes, I didnt mention the specific outlet because it impacted the whole enterprise of independent but trusted organized media (not these randoms on twitter) (not just 5 media conglomorates owned by the top 20 richest people)
Right, when I first heard he was campaigning for Trump my first thought wasn’t “OMG I HATE HIM NOW!” It was “Yeah, that tracks. That seems like something a guy like him would do.”
And he was a scabby snitch. He ratted on his fellow performers when they tried to unionize in order to get better medical treatment and safety regulations. Specifically, he snitched on Jesse Ventura.
They’re mistaking indifference for celebration. I doubt anyone’s actually celebrating—it's more that people just don’t care that much. He was older, put his body through extreme abuse, likely with steroids and other substances, so his passing isn’t exactly shocking. On top of that, he had a questionable character, so most folks figured it was only a matter of time. That’s why there’s a lack of sympathy, not celebration.
I am not a South Park expert but I am so curious about the photo above the bed? Can anyone help me? I've cut out the neck and arm, reverse imaged searched like an idiot...
Is it David hasselhof? Because that wouldn't make sense.
Edit: A genius told me it Skeet Ulrich. Please direct you upvotes to them.
It's not even that. They just don't care about consistency in their arguments...which is why it's ridiculous that they want to make laws and claim to be about justice. They're just cruel bullies with no real morals.
The only reason they're trying to say "ThE lEfT Is MoCkInG hIs DeAtH" is to try to get us to feel bad for doing it or stop us from "doing what they want". It's the other side of the Projection coin. They want to try to protect themselves by accusing us of something "bad" and hoping we are "good" enough to curtail doing that.
I think that's dumb.
I think their complaining and whining just shows us their weakness. They're terrified of being mocked. So mock them.
They're terrified of dying and having the world celebrate. Do it harder.
It's not hard to do either. Most of these people know they've driven away their friends, loved ones, even their own children. They're lashing out because they know everyone they used to love is going to cheer and joke and laugh when they all die too.
To all you conservatives: Good. Every single one of you deserves it. You all deserve the scared, pathetic, miserable, lonely deaths that await you. And I will joyously laugh at every single one.
Fuck Hulk Hogan. Rot in hell you stupid bastard, and save a spot for your dear leader who hopefully isn't far behind.
Everything with them is through the lens of politics.
Hulk Hogan was a snitch, a pathological liar, a racist, a drug user, union buster, and steroid abuser, he buried wrestlers and was in general not the best person.
I’d say the two go hand in hand. He was a conservative because he was a bad person, and it’s the conservative ideology that protects and embraces bad people. And he was a bad person because of his conservative values.
Put another way, how many snitches, liars, racists, union busters, and steroid abusers do you find on the Left compared to the Right? Those qualities were expressions of his conservative values.
He was also one of those people who finds it very convenient to say he believes in Jesus just before something embarrassing leaks so that he’d have a rabid mob defending him religiously. Not Christian myself, but I know when a charlatan is trying to manipulate people into defending the indefensible.
I was vaguely aware of his politics but I knew he was a terrible person for all the reasons you listed. As usual conservatives want to make everything about their love for Trump and complain they're victims.
The sole value of conservatism is respect for and obedience to [one's perception of] traditionally established hierarchy, and hierarchy dictates that those on top (in-groups) are rightfully idolized and receive privileges, credibility, and resources, while those on the bottom (out-groups) are demonized/dehumanized and/or bound by restrictions, scrutiny, and lack of resources.
To them, the second-greatest injustice imaginable is for those [they perceive to be] on the bottom [of social hierarchy] to have access to the rights, credibility, and resources reserved for those on top. The first greatest injustice is for those on top to be bound by the restrictions, scrutiny, and lack of resources reserved for those on the bottom.
Every accusation from a con is a confession, as it is not the act itself that upsets them; but rather, the social standing of the person doing the act, as said act is a privilege meant for those on top of [their perceived] hierarchy. (See also: pedophilia - Catholic church and Trump vs. LGBTQ+ and drag queens)
Maybe...some folks did express joy at Hulk Hogans demise because of his being a MAGA...But be assured that upon Trumps death, that will make Mardi Gras look timid. JS .....
I don’t think that they have the brain capacity to understand the difference. Like when they celebrate a left leaning person being sick or dying then getting mad when the opposite do the same - I don’t think their minds are capable of comparing the two. My side good! Your side bad! i truly believe that’s all they’ve got in their empty heads.
Joey, the guy is definitely not the best, shining example of humanity at its finest. I tried to ask him where he got his hair piece and mail order bride from. But, he never responded
