The 6 year old in me is very disappointed to learn that Hulk Hogan is a dumb piece of crap.
IIRC he got canceled way back during or shortly after his reality show when he went on a racist rant over a recorded phone-call to his son who was sitting in jail, the context of which sounded very similar to a lot of Trump conservative meltdowns.
Almost. Hogan was a bull (I think), and was giving the old third leg drop on this dudes wife. The dude was secretly recording, and Hogan started ranting about how he didn’t want his daughter to date black guys. He used much worse language.
The call you are referencingwas after his son crippled a man when he wrecked while allegedly racing, and all they were worried about was making the passenger look bad and a reality TV show when Nick got released.I’ll be damned. Looks like Hulk and Nick did discuss racially insensitive things, to put it nicely.
Look BROTHA, it’s like this— The Hulkster is super rich and extremely racist, but mainly Hulkster just doesn’t wanna pay taxes
Peter Thiel funded Terry Bollea’s lawsuit against Gawker. It’s saddening (but not surprising) that he’s a real shitbird too.
So is Hercules, and the Walker Texas Ranger. It’s all disappointing.
Oh Terry… What have you become?
This isn’t surprising. Hulk Hogan is a huge racist.
Remember when his drunken piece of shit kid killed someone and Hulk Hogan Said it was probably karma?
I thought he killed someone too, but now all I can find is that he left somebody brain damaged to the point of needing lifetime care. Fuck Mandela
Edit: According to SRS Hogan stated the guy and his family should live their second life as black people for karma
… nah dude W
WTF
He did say brotha a lot.
I don’t know if Brooke was fucking the black guy’s son. I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, fucking n****s. But then when it comes to nice people and shit, and whatever. I guess we’re all a little racist. Fucking n*****.
– Hulk Hogan, who was taken out of the Wrestling Hall of Fame for three whole years after he was recorded saying that.
And then Peter Thiel, pissed that Gawker outed him, bankrolled Hogan’s lawsuit which took them down. I remember lots of people on Reddit regarded it as a victory because Gawker sucked, which it did. They didn’t care that a billionaire found a way to destroy a media outlet that told people something about him that he didn’t want them to know.
Peter Thiel is, of course, also a big Republican supporter.
They didn’t care that a billionaire found a way to destroy a media outlet that told people something about him that he didn’t want them to know.
Kind of a serious thing, for some people, to want quiet. What was the Gawker lawsuit over?
They released the secret recording of him saying the racist thing above without anyone’s permission. Which is an absolutely shitty thing to do. But Thiel saw it as an in and paid for the best lawyers he could find and took them down.
Should they have been taken down for it anyway? Maybe. But not because of Peter Thiel.
I’ve never watched it, but I feel like outing a gay man and revenge porn fall into the “bad action” category, despite them being pieces of shit.
Maybe, but Thiel didn’t sue them for outing him. He bankrolled someone else’s suit because he knew it would be much more damaging. And that is not how the system should work.
I thought he bankrolled hogan to out them for exposing his dick, though. I may be wrong.
The lawsuit that killed gawker was the hulk sex tape that they refused to take down. They were 100% wrong on that one.
Hogan is famously a liar of epic proportions and shut down a potential wrestlers union in the 80s. I know many of us were hulkamaniacs at some point but he’s a piece of shit.
I haven’t kept up with ole Stone Cold but last I checked he was threatening people online for being racist and homophobic. So if you want a decent person that was once at the top of the business he’s a better choice
Edit: I should add that I know Austin beat his wife when he was king of WWE but seems to have changed his ways and bettered himself. Doesn’t excuse that he did it but like I said he’s about the best in the wrestling business
I know next to zero about professional wrestling, but isn’t CM Punk also a pretty good dude outside the ring?
John Cena too I think. At the very least he had the record for most wishes granted for the Make a Wish Foundation.
John Cena speaks pretty fluent Chinese when he needs to apologize to the CCP.
Didn’t like that but can’t say I’d do different.
There is no way the studio didn’t push for that.
He’s a massive star. He could have said, “no, fuck the CCP, I won’t do it.” It’s not like he would have never gotten work in Hollywood again. He’s worth way too much even if he doesn’t kowtow to the CCP.
TBF celebrities bigger than him have been cancelled for lesser offenses than taking on the CCP.
Such as?
General politics wise he’s publicly been pro women’s rights and supports LGBQT+ rights
He didn’t lie when he said he was a racist though. Of course, he didn’t know there was a camera on him at the time.
John Cena.
god, ever since I heard Hulk Hogan was a snitch I hated the guy. This just confirms he’s a shit pile.
Hulk Hogan is a character, terry is just terry.
Terry is a piece of shit, the hulk is just a charicature they’re hired to speak and the hulk is not actually he’s reading a script they hired him to read.
It’s very stupid and Terry is also a massive shitstain but let’s be specific about who we’re shitting on and why.
He became his mask a long time ago. I doubt there’s any differentiation in his head.
Doesn’t matter, they didn’t pay Terry to show up they paid hulk Hogan who would say whatever you pay him to say because that’s literally his job.
It’s a very dumb difference but a legally viable one apparently.
Not just a snitch but iirc there’s been allegations he’s racist too for years now.
Not just allegations he’s on tape saying he doesn’t want his daughter to be with a Nword.
Didn’t he kill gawker? That was pretty cool.
Your childhood heroes are losers
Thank goodness there are still some good ones left of our childhood heroes.
I’m looking at you, Lucy Lawless Warrior Princess (who has the power of flight per The Simpsons), and especially looking at you LeVar Burton (who has the power of summoning rainbows with his mind)!
Fuck Kevin Sorbo.
Lucy Lawless is an absolute treasure of a human being.
When your fan club has a week dedicated to being charitable, you’re deserving of those fans.
Danny DeVito is pretty fucking awesome
Toeknife…
Rum ham!
Excuse me, but my childhood heroes were Mel Blanc and Jim Henson.
MRW I’ve been comparing US politics to WWE for years
Another connection is Vince McMahon and his wife, both of which are right wing pieces of trash. Linda herself served in the previous Trump administration.
Both Vince McMahon and Trump are also known for failed football leagues.
I feel very, very different from these people. Literally nothing in common. Holy crap.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho! Camachomania!!!
I would take Camachomania over Trumpomania any day. Any. Fucking. Day.
You keep seeing peter thiels name here, right… Weird, huh.
j.d. vance is thiel’s longtime lap puppy and trump’s new VP pick after trying to have the old one publicly executed.
thiel is also at PayPal with elon. peter is like the “cool senior” at high school with the upturned collar when elon musk is a freshman. Thiel says to elon one day, “hey Elmo, carry my books to class.” elon enthusiastically complies and while his hands are full, thiel takes all of the blood emeralds out of elon’s pockets, pantses him in front of his crush, and then says, “now say thank you daddy, for letting my little weiner see the sunshine, Elmo” elon complies, pants around his ankles, and then thiel pushes elon over, and drives away with his crush, as they both laugh at elon. Elon then says to himself, “Man, that guy is so cool.” Right as vance is confined as VP pick, Elmo (who said earlier this year that he wouldn’t donate to either trump or biden) just started “donating” $45 million dollars a month to trump in perpetuity.
Are you starting to see who’s in charge?
You should learn more about potential shadow president thiel.
Jesus fucking christ.

Canada is going to implement the same once Poilievre takes over because Canadians are dumb and “bored” with Trudeau, so they will see what being “bored” gets them. Idiots.
Unless you elect the followers of the “Queen of Canada” to parliament on the Trucker Convoy Party ticket, you will never get a Prime Minister anywhere near as bad as Trump.
I mean, I think the digital ID bullshit is pretty bad, but that’s just one thing he’s talked about so far. We’ll see how far he is actually willing to go over the duration of his tenure and what other absolutely insane bullshit he can come up with.
Dude, he never tried to change the path of a hurricane with a sharpie or look at the sun during an eclipse.
Wait, you mean that the union-busting, back-stabbing, “I got mine,” racist piece of shit supports Trump???
Well, now I’m offended!
What is this timeline
What a fucking loser
