For the non-skating fans, this would be like if Conor McGregor paid a bunch of his friends to show up two days before a major MMA event and intentionally injure a bunch of random fighters. Or if you're a non-sports fan, uh..... I guess imagine if someone paid Melee to break Undertale's kneecaps and we had no final in 2015 or something.

Fuck the Black Sox, Harding is the greatest heel in sports.

I really don't like the idea of glorifying criminals, especially those who precipitated violence.

So like, I'm not normally one of "those guys," but I think it's justified now to point out that "wrestling is fake." The attack on Kerrigan was not a work, and shouldn't be associated with wrestling like that.

Worst part is how Hollywood sat there and gave Tonya Harding an ovation this year because a movie was made about her. No joke.

Your point is what independently spurred me on to make this parody topic in the first place. You should check it if you have Ulti unignored.

It's not the worst part. It's the second-worst part.

But yeah, I was uncomfortable with that. It's not like she ever demonstrated any evolution as a person and personally I never bought her forced apology.

Fair. It's about the Conor McGregor situation today. You can imagine the rest. Rest assured, I do not actually think Tonya Harding is a legend.

No, it is the worst part imo. Is it a person doing something monstrous or the thousands of people with hindsight 20 years later cheering her on for a movie about it?

I hate to drop this example, but I can think of a direct comparison if I change 20 to 75.

You can't compare Tonya to Conner the Legend. She wasn't sticking up for Her Boy.

Fair. I should have said Tonya Harding's husband was a legend.

Hollywood used Tonya to make some easy money. She was a pretty good figure skater and didn't really need to attack or use her husband to attack Nancy. But it happened so whatever.

Um, one is a bunch of extremists. One is literally Hollywood itself in a public highly watched platform. A bit different.

Yeah, I realized a lot of people might have Ulti blocked and decided I might as well link where this was coming from.
