Charlie Radtke Apologizes for Using Homophobic Slur in Post-Fight Interview at UFC 293

[nonoob]

No way was he smart in the interview.

Tough guys call other guys a blow job

You must know of another class of tough guys, that's a new one here.

The punishment doesn’t always fit the crime. Lots of people have been cancelled for silly tweets

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

 

[Barteh]

These fake forced apologies don't mean anything anyway.

 

[biscuitsbrah]

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

That’s retarded. Like going to jail for weed. Justice for people who say mean things.

Maybe we should have thought crime as well

 

[jitzmonkey]

How is it woke lol? I swear some people think anything that isn't in the bible is woke.

One of the more annoying linguistic phenomenons in recent memory; a bunch of old Hwite men from “it’s ok to f—yourcousin land” co-opting a term that came from young black urban intellectuals describing people that refuse to ignore the fact that our culture perpetuates inequality.
Inbred boomers and their half hominid spawn ruin everything.

You have to drop N bombs if you really want to set it off, like Izzy

Yes but the dog rapist must’ve meant it in an endearing way, yes? Isn’t that their excuse for getting away with saying that racial slur?

Anybody can say and think whatever they like. You just want to cry foul and be absolved of responsibility and criticism for it. Others have their own freedom to criticize and outcast you for it. Grow up and own what you say and accept what comes along with it. If you’re not willing to accept that, then maybe consider what you say. In an ironic twist of fate, the ones that lament anti-woke/cancel culture are the biggest self victimizers out there.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

The narrative implies, in this example, that the two fighters have an irrational fear of homosexuality or the people who choose that lifestyle.

Me, I don't think they are afraid.

Many people are disgusted by the idea of men having sex with other men.
Homos don't like that disgust. They fear it.
That makes the homos disgustophobics.
Right?



No joke. The left intends to marginalize and cancel people who are disgusted by s.
So you better be careful what you get disgusted about!!

How much time do you actually spend thinking about men having sex with other men though? Personally I just tend not to think about it.

 

[Kono dio da!]

He shouldn't have said it in the first place

I take responsibility for my actions. No one is absolved from consequences. All I was saying was the punishment doesn’t fit the crime for a faux pas. I guess you think it’s ok to kill someone for accidentally bumping into them. Because your actions have consequences. I get what you are trying to say but I don’t think you are comprehending my logic

 

[Tronald Dump]

Good on him for apologizing. Dana and co may not care much, but at the end of the days, it's a business, and saying stuff like that isn't advertiser friendly. No matter how you personally feel about it, it should never be said at this high level of athletics

These guys that no one (except for ardent MMA fans) have ever heard of, are not Mike Tyson.

Imagine Mike saying that when he was fighting bouts in Long Island or at the Ramada.

I only think about it when stupid people infiltrate societal governance to the extent that they begin to succeed in legislating certain protections and considerations for certain people based solely on who those people want to have sex with.

Like, I get special treatment and protection because I want to have sex with my wife.
Only diff being that normal sexual behavior is not protected, only abnormal.

It's another rung in the ladder to societal failure. Governance according to extreme margins rather than the mean.

I get your logic. You believe there’s an overreaction to minor transgressions. My problem is that’s not what the anti-woke/cancel culture group is against. They are fighting to knowingly say offensive things, then play victim when they’re called out and ousted for it. Your example is pretty disingenuous though, these are not people making oopsies then getting murdered. It is people knowingly saying provocative and offensive things and bemoaning the consequences, which is typically no longer being associated with.

Izzy got a pass, maybe with a few more wins this guy won't have to grovel.

Let's be honest, if it was a white American male, there would be zero passes given. You don't know the rules yet?

So that makes you think about the actual act lol?

 

[Tyler Durden]

Do people on sherdog only hang out with straight male meatheads irl? God this place sucks. I forgot people defending slurs demeaning historically marginalized communities actually still exist, and then I log in to sherdog and sigh and log out for another year again.

Because everyone is at the point now where we really dont care because everyone is offended about everything nowadays so yeah, we're over the cry baby bullshit.
and don't let the door hit your delicate ass on your way to hide in your safe place.

 

[teamfox223]

I don't care about the slur that he used he could've left it out and still would've hated this guy, way to try to win the crowd over his not even that good of a fighter beating someone who shouldn't even be in the UFC. When he loses and that would be pretty soon his going to be mocked and booted out of the UFC just like Tony Kelly.
