Does Dana end the complete freedom of speech after Bryce?

[WEAREONEMMA]

Well I saw that coming. When I saw a Bryce post about wanting to home school his kid to prevent them from becoming gay, or celebrating getting bullets for Christmas and seemingly looking forward to the day a civil war breaks out so he can kill his fellow Americans he disagrees with I knew. I would see so many people say things like "he seems like a good dude" or "he seems like that dumb friend we all have" and I would just shake my head. His stance doesn't surprise me at all.

When he woke up he had developed new interpretations of history.

Probably should have let Emmett get a few more shots in.

Dana whites response is perfect.

Either you believe in free speech or you don't.

I'm not sure what Bryce was thinking, if he was trying to be edgy or some shit. Luckily he's not mainstream or he'd be canceled.

Hopefully he just apologizes.

i ain't reading this whole thread, but Dana didn't defend freedom of speech for years. he's blackballed/fired/suspended LOTS of fighters for tweets/opinions etc.,

Dana has spent years defending absolute freedom of speech for his fighters. Bryce Mitchell calling Hitler a good guy going to remain status quo or drop the hammer down.

you can say what Strickland has been saying about Muslims but don't say a word about the bosses in America.

Has nothing to do with free speech. Dana White doesn't take action because Mitchell is an asset to him (albeit a minor one but he is relatively high on the card), and his statement isn't damaging enough for him to take action (because most of the UFC's target demographic wouldn't care enough about it to not watch the UFC.)

There are more commercially damning things for Mitchell to say, and if he said them, he likely would get punished for it. That's how entertainment works in general.

Different times. Not like in 2011 guys got cut because of rape jokes.

Edit: Here is Dana answer

So freedom of speech unless you say something he don't like or his Disney bosses don't like.

Yep, Dana and the UFC wouldn’t be so free speech if a fighter said certain things. There is a line whether Dana will admit to it or not. But being pro Nazi is not over that line, which says a lot.

Dana only believes in Freedom of $peech

Honestly haven't paid attention to Strickland in so long that I have missed it. Sean was great in the buildup against Izzy, but aside from that he is a tired act that needs to be put down. Figured Sean would be the one to get the company in hot water though.

I guess you don't understand much, Dana never told Bryce to shut his mouth and shouldn't say shit

He literally said. Bryce is the biggest retard ever to open his mouth , and contacted him to tell him is in fact a moron

Bryce is free to say what he wants. But he's infact a fucking idiot

 

[cheesus]

I completely forgot about the nutsack incident

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Daner loves free spech just watch the Loretta Hunt rant.

 

[aerius]

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Dana is just pretending to be mad while he's actually paying Bryce to say the most ridiculous shit he can think of.

I like free speech (non-existent in my country), it leads to honesty, for good or bad. It's interesting to get to know what people are really thinking. Line should be drawn at incitement, though, not at hurt feelings.

Another great post. What country is that, bud?

People can have a different opinion on subjects that are not the same as the indoctrinated.[the majority.]
