I don't find a problem with that conversation at all. The Attitude Era was a celebration of the worst prejudices of the lowest common denominator audience member writ large. Sexism, racism, homophobia, xenophobia - all out there for Jim Bob and 'em to laugh at.

Get mad DX did blackface, but give Chuck and Billy a pass? Nope.

:manny: depending on the arena/city I doubt it'd be very different if they did the same thing in 2014

Never understood hating anyone for things beyond their control, but as a rule wrestling fans aren't exactly the most socially progressive group of people

She really compared blackface to some guys pretending to be gay for a gimmick. :dead:

And fukk Reddit and their fake liberal outrage party (don't ask how).

It's really amusing and at the same infuriating because you know as well as I do that none of these nitwits will ever make that correlation with Jewish people and the holocaust like they do blacks and slavery to "gay rights."
For obvious reasons.

Discrimination is discrimination :manny:

Though if we're going down the history route, the holocaust wasn't solely aimed at Jews. Nazis systematically tried to exterminate gypsies, homosexuals, Catholics, various ethnic groups, the disabled, the deaf...anyone that didn't fit into their fukked up vision of the ideal world.

Oof. It's one of those arguments.

Honestly, I think hating a person because of their sexuality is Dumbass 101, but it's ridiculous to compare the two plights. It's sad that people think they have to make the comparison in order to show a person why it's wrong to act think that way.

Lol @ brought a tear to their eye. Seems extremely extra to me but whatever. I thought the whole thing was hilarious because you knew it was bullshyt from the start.
