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
Oh Terry… What have you become?
So is Hercules, and the Walker Texas Ranger. It’s all disappointing.
Peter Thiel funded Terry Bollea’s lawsuit against Gawker. It’s saddening (but not surprising) that he’s a real shitbird too.
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.

The Undertaker and Chris Jericho are endorsing Donald Trump to remain the President of the United States. According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Calaway, and Jericho are the biggest donors to the Trump campaign in terms of pro wrestlers. 411 Mania noted that The Undertaker has donated a total of $7,000 to Trump and Republican causes this year while Jericho has donated $3,000 this month.
Republican fundraising platform WinRed has accepted donations from WWE’s John Gaburick ($100), Drake Wuertz ($10) and Kevin Dunn ($42). Former WWE CEO Linda McMahon is one of the biggest Trump supporters as she and husband, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, donated $5 million to the Trump Foundation from 2004 to 2014. Trump has strong ties with WWE as he’s a member of the company’s Hall of Fame. In WrestleMania 23, Trump took on Vince McMahon in a Hair vs. Hair match and won.

Donald Trump makes his Undertaker entrance at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland on July 18, 2016.
Good. Now I have no reason to feel bad about laughing at the Undertaker when the Sci-Fi channel, for some reason, had him host a movie night, called “The Undertaker’s Theater of Doom” and he pronounced it “thee-ayter.”
Wtf did I just watch haha why the hell haven’t I seen that before
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.
I believe Hogan has been known to be a massive piece of shit among wrestling fans for decades now. Some of the stories I’ve read about the dude… Not great.
Ric Flair might be the only bigger shithead
Hogan was already a piece of shit for being a racist. He didn’t need to make me dislike him even more by getting into politics, even if his racism made clear which side he was on. Fuck him with a ten foot dick.
I’ve hated Hogan since the 90s, when I found out what a cancer he was backstage at WCW. Didn’t help when I found out he’s the reason wrestlers don’t have a union.
For a lot of us fans, Hogan has been the devil way before we knew he was a racist POS.
Be nice to that dick. Nobody wants a 10ft dong around, so have some compassion. Let it get creative, at least. I mean, what else is it for, after all?
The Danes have already thought about it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dillermand
John Dillermand is a Danish stop motion animated children’s television series about a man and his very long penis.
The series is aimed at four- to eight-year-olds
What the hell is going on over there?
Kids that age think a very long, prehensile penis is funny.
He doesn’t go around fucking things.
Bodily curiosity is good and penises are funny
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.
Too bad he didn’t bring Heather Clem up with him.
We’re only 4 years from recreating Idiocracy. Hell we might already be there. Save us, Luke Wilson. You’re our only hope.
President Camacho realized he needed to put the smartest man he knew in charge to save the world.
The current crop of Republicans, uh… don’t.
Some parts of the world are there, this one sure is.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho! Camachomania!!!
I would take Camachomania over Trumpomania any day. Any. Fucking. Day.
Camacho wasn’t that bright, and was in over his head, but at least he was smart enough to realize that, and he had the best interests of his people at heart. And when he found somebody who was smarter than him and might actually have solutions to the problems his people faced, he actually listened. Though he did sentence him to “rehabilitation” when the plan initially appeared unsuccessful.
For that alone, Camacho would be a better president than Trump.
Do we get to call them Trumpamaniacs now?
I’ve been calling them Trumpanzees for years now.
Easy to spot with their red hat dunce caps!
Well that was upsetting.
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.
Not really. He was pretty much hired to do so by Peter Thiel.
It’s not like he wasn’t involved. They put themselves at massive liability by publishing his leaked sex tape then refusing to take it down. I can certainly believe thiel had alternative motives, but the fact that he bankrolled the lawsuit isn’t relevant to the merits of the lawsuit.
Also pretty fucked that they did that after taking such a hard stance against the fappening.
Dear aliens,
If you’re reading this, please vaporize planet earth. There’s too much stupid here, we cannot be saved.
I thought they didn’t like drag?
When it comes to them, the hypocrisy is a feature not a bug of their ideology.
Jesus fucking christ.
Big throwing-a-dog-in-the-water energy.
Welcome to Amazon, I love you.
Welcome to Amazon, I love you.
Welcome to Amazon, I love you.
Oh man, we’re gonna get an Idiocracy world where porn is illegal, not one where you can get a handjob at the Costco Starbucks 😢
As someone else once said and I am paraphrasing uncredited because I don’t remember who they are: “In the Idiocracy universe, when they discovered a man who was smarter than everyone else, they put him in charge of stuff. That makes it a wiser world than our own”.
Despite their struggles, politically and socially, Idiocracy is an utopia. As far as I can remember, people genuinely worked to try to make the world better, even if they were failing at it
The man vs. machine death matches were a little fucked tho.
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.
