@HaylBecks I don’t get the idea you need to have a right to comment on saying this should stop in either direction. Plenty of people with gross history of Islamophobia can comment on Oct 7 and say it was awful and shouldn’t happen again and I’d say they’re right! That’s my whole thing.
Funniest thing about the people qualifying their Macklemore take by saying they aren’t a fan of his music BUT…. is that they’re telling on themselves by missing the whole point that you don’t need to be good or bad or even have a job to have the right moral stance. Christ, guys.
@HaylBecks I just struggle to understand why the messenger matters in saying “put an end to the systemic destruction of a land and people” (which applies to both sides of this). October 7 was an atrocity beyond comprehension. Nearly 100k dead in Gaza…
@HaylBecks If the moron President, who I think is a disgusting monster who I hate more than anyone (hi NSA 👋) said something I agree with, I’d say I agree with it.
@HaylBecks My official stance of record is that I both condemn the horrible awful frankly shocking moment and behavior you shared while also stating I agree with his current stance on things and in both cases anyone’s relationship or opinion of his musical talent shouldn’t matter
@HaylBecks There are also plenty of people who have done horrible things that you can take independent points from and read and agree or disagree with. I’ll ask again if there’s anything you disagree with him on or if it’s just that you think he lost the privilege of speaking on it
@HaylBecks Morals are not defined as positive. Definition changes person to person. My whole point was the qualifying of “I don’t like his music BUT” was stupid as if that matters. Plenty of people have personal morals I disagree with
@HaylBecks Also, my tweet didn’t imply support (tho this message I do). A moral stance you don’t agree with is all the same a stance. My point was simply that whether a person is good at their job or not shouldn’t matter. It was frankly agnostic to this specifically. Fin.
@HaylBecks This is super horrifying/antisemitic/awful/completely unacceptable you name it. Obviously. But curious what about what he’s said or done in this case you disagree with specifically. Or is it that just he’s forever lost his right to speak on it because of this? Genuinely asking
I’m sure this won’t be divisive at all, but if I was a coach at a top program and a hyper realistic AI video of me doing something I would never do went viral and became a big story prompting an apology from my QB, I’d issue a statement denouncing the video’s depiction of me.
My 2 cents on the Alonso thing: it’s not actually about him you dorks. It’s a direct loud earned middle finger to the GM who put this horrible roster together that once again fell short of expectations due to his god awful decisions. It’s a statement beyond Pete. Forest trees etc
For the life of me I cannot understand why the ManningCast isn’t them watching from behind the play/All-22 angle. Let them see it develop and call stuff out! This is Peyton reacting the same way I did when I saw it and needing a replay. Wasted value
I don’t think the Sydney Sweeney ad sets women back as much as it highlights a regression of young men at an exponential pace. Of course the move is to target online porn addicted boys on addictive algorithms full of false perceptions of reality with an addictive app to bet on.
@HaylBecks I think it’s as simple as Jake couldn’t wait to leave and it’s well documented that Pete loved the Mets and wanted to stay. Makes it easier to not reminisce and adore Jake and harder to let Pete go
