Dana defends the Constitution and crushed Cancel Culture

[MrKontakos]

Criticize China and see what happens.

Bingo. Let's see what he has to say about China putting its muslim populations in camps or trying to crush Hong Kong into submission, or worse call Taiwan it's own country. He's a big tough guy when it comes to telling off a bunch of leftists with blue hair, but he bows to the almighty dollar just like everyone else. We heard it first hand that their last shareholder meeting was about pushing chinese talent to the moon. He'll get political to the point of speaking at national conventions, so I'm sure he won't mind sharing his views on this! Right?

Freedom of speech and cancel culture comment the night he made sure Belal Muhammad gets no post fight in cage mic time cause he may potentially talk about Palestine lol what a hypocrite lol


Hahaha what a good time to remind the world he’s a habitual liar who can’t be trusted

I love how the Right is being championed as the saviors from cancel culture in America, when the Right has been at the forefront of cancel culture for decades at the very least. Now they just want to cry like children because their own tactics are being used against them.

Remember the Dixie Chicks and how Repubs cried and cancelled them for saying mean things about the Iraq War? What about when the Right tried to cancel the entirety of the NFL because of Kapernick's dumbass.

The Right in America is the biggest bunch of fucking crybabies I have ever seen, even the shit-tier NeoLib Democrats aren't as bad, but fuck them too.

This seems more like war room thread than mma related

I don’t agree with Dana at times and I definitely have my issues with him. That being said, he absolutely nailed that answer. He couldn’t have said it better.

This sensitive culture nowadays has just gotten out of hand. This notion of “if you don’t share my belief your wrong” is ridiculous. It’s getting progressively worse as well so props to Dana for standing strong on this.

You are not wrong for supporting Trump or Biden...or swaying left or right. Believe what you want and that’s it. Unfortunately nowadays that’s not the case anymore.

Then again, you see it all the time on this site as well. You got posters screaming racism just because their favorite fighter isn’t liked by everyone. Got to be a miserable way to live life when you are so sensitive that you constantly fall back on the race card simply for a disagreement.

"This notion of “if you don’t share my belief your wrong” is ridiculous."

Now don't be super sensitive when I point out you used the wrong your/you're.

this is so dumb

As a business and an employer, the opinions and things your employee says can affect your bottom line.

Imagine if Fighter A decides to share his opinion that Bellator is better at press conferences.

As a private party, you can and should always have the freedom to fire someone over their opinions or the things they say.

Depending on what’s said...maybe. There is definitely a limit.

However political beliefs, religious beliefs and so on should NEVER be factored into the equation. Nowdays they are...constantly. That’s the issue I have. People should be allowed to believe what they want and also speak on those beliefs without fear of punishment as long as they are not hurting anyone.

The issue nowadays is that every single thing offends someone and everything is somehow race related.

You’re only criticizing my sentence and trying to make me feel stupid because I’m Hispanic....

Blatant racism...

What a weird world we live in these days.

 

[Kwic]

If it brings profit you can say whatever you want but if it gives a bad look for the UFC you get fired. Free speech my ass.
We've seen that.
Is normal.

 

[Andrusz]

Holy shit, that reporter dropped down and took Dana's balls straight in his mouth. Dana isn't saving shit, there's just zero eyes on this niche sport outside of sports bars and karate forums. I started laughing when the guy was painting Dana as some kind of hero and crusader for free speech. With enough public pressure he'd fold like everyone else.

Only if it affects their bottom line.

Dana is a Trump style American, no more no less. If someone denied the Holocaust, he would have to get rid of them, but he will tolerate guys saying socialism is bad or cancel culture is out of control etc.

Sure they can, I can kick someone out of my house at a dinner party for holding certain political beliefs, same with religion. I probably shouldn't but it's my right as a private party.

Same with an employer firing people. If I work in Hollywood and we're about to release a movie, and the movie depends on how much the audience likes the actor, and suppose the audience is all Biden supporters, and my lead actor decides to start trashing Biden, it could cost me millions of dollars, and ruin the movie.

Also, if my lead actor starts saying it's his religious belief that gays can't get married on media outlets, outraging my paying customers, I should be able to fire him so I don't lose millions.

One day Dana White will be the President!
He will also put Ali Abdelaziz in charge of CIA

Cant be any worse than whats been going on lately with american presidents.

Also cant wait for scott coker to lead the opposition

 

[DoctorStoppage]

UFC reporters really reach new levels of dick-sucking every week

You don't get to have a holocaust without socialism and canceling people first, so makes sense.

Well I don't believe any sport should help promote racism, as free speech has consequences, but to try and twist and turn every single word into something that it's not is what is also disgusting and should not be promoted. It gives a false sense of society.
