It's all pop culture and social trend... Life's not about being an actual decent human being for most people.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

The information on the tiny amount of epstein files released might be titillating but the real meat and potatoes is in the rest of the huge mountain of information that they did not release.

As long as we remember Harambe

I think these fascists are trying to make him their "George Floyd". But unlike what the death of George Floyd represented (a wake-up call and a rallying chant against authoritarisnism, bigotry, institutionalized racism, and police brutality), this is a complete farse and a mockery, completely devoid of any meaning. He died for nothing except to give us some hilarious memes to laugh our asses off for no more than a week

[–] HasturInYellow@lemmy.world 66 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I strongly disagree.

I'll be laughing for much longer than a week.

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I smile when I think of the blood pouring from his neck.

Nazi lives don't matter.

My fuckwit uncle's response to comments about George Floyd was "well turns out he was an asshole."

So as long as someone's an asshole, it's okay to extra-judicially murder them.

[–] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Is your fuckwit uncle internally consistent or a racist?

They're claiming it's their Reichstag fire.... They have somehow achieved a negative grasp of history. As in measured on a scale of 1 through 10, these people have a score of -5

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 week ago

to be fair this is also a wake up call for them.

if they fuck around, they might find out.

NFL and nhl are really showing how much they dig fascism. Can’t quite tell with the mlb but the cardinals sure as shit are so fuck them

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 40 points 1 week ago (3 children)

NFL is the Millionaire CTE Scramble anyway, so I ain't watching that shit.

[–] Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Not to mention how fucking boring that shit is. I love how nfl fans will say baseball is slow and then sit there like football isn’t the slowest fucking thing ever god damn that sport is a drab and doesn’t deserve the name “football”

Got orders at work today to lower our flag to half staff in his honor. No mention of 9-11. This is a public school district :(

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago

Gross... If I were in charge of the flag, I would be trying to see if it were possible to fly it higher than usual.

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Too bad the wires are malfunctioning and the message never arrived

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Also some damn kids tied knots in the flagpole rope, so that's gonna take a few days to fix

[–] jmsy@lemmy.world 67 points 1 week ago (4 children)

The last time I checked, and fuck me if I'm wrong, the NFL has several black athletes. What did kirk say about black people?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago

NFL Players Association should stand up to this shit.

Calling the Civil Rights Act of 1964 a "huge mistake"

Describing Martin Luther King Jr. as "awful" and "not a good person"

Stated "If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to think, 'I hope he's qualified'"

Claimed successful Black women like Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson were "affirmative action picks" who "do not possess the cognitive capacity to be taken seriously"

[–] jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The league only cares about black athletes to the degree that it can profit off their performance.

Case in point: Colin Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem -- which was honestly an extremely mild form of protest -- and was immediately black-balled.

If they do care about black athletes, they clearly care about money a lot more.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

The players are unionized, and the NFLPA has a lot of strong black voices in leadership if I recall (at least as of the last time I looked into it)... But yeah I doubt they'll do anything unfortunately.

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 1 week ago

Remind me who the owners... wait, don't. Let's just look at a picture of the owners of the nfl.

Then think about how 'just' their presentation goes. Compare the owner and the 'peripheral' employees. There's a better picture that I can't find that is often used in sociology classes, where the owner of a team is in the presence of the cheerleaders and the players, and it can't be beat for showing that if you're a rich man wanting slaves and concubines, owning a team is pretty much the next best thing.

The sports associations are fucked.

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 58 points 1 week ago (5 children)

The fucking state of Virginia is calling for a moment of silence over this guy. What the hell is going on?

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 36 points 1 week ago

They're martyrizing him. Goal is probably civil war and trans genocide.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 week ago (13 children)

And to bury the Epstein birthday book. Did anyone realize that the emails between Maxwell and Epstein were released yesterday?

the far-right establishment behind the Trump administration is preparing to use this as the justification for the incoming Reichstagsbrandverordnung.

They've got their van der Lubbe now and they're working to get their bullshit in before Nov 2026

This doesn't matter at all. Release the Epstein files.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago

We need justice and closure for the survivors. That's why the files need to be released.

Boycott the NFL if you like American style football just watch Canadian or Australian football or even rugby they are all close enough and in some cases like Australian football I would say are better

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

Or just attend university leagues. I don't even like football, mostly because I don't understand the rules, but this time of year I go to cheap to free university games.

To quote Marilyn Manson:

"If you die when there's no one watching,

then your ratings drop and you're forgotten.

But if they kill you on their TV,

You're a martyr and a Lamb Of God. "

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (10 children)

US sports (except maybe basketball) are very right-wing. I don't think they actually care one way or the other, but their audience is mostly boys and men, and boys and men are right wing these days, so the sports cater to that audience.
