I just like that one since its full of crazy. Not only homophobia but also Obummer trying to take our guns.

I didn't think that was necessarily homophobia although calling him MenLove is close. It is a theory that's been tossed around and not in a mean or homophobic way by others (King could've meant it that way, though, I have no idea).

The rest of that poo poo is just crazy.

I feel really stupid because I don't understand any of this. Te'o is a football player who had a fake girlfriend who "died" and he may or may not have been in on it, right? King makes a couple of weird comments suggesting he was in on it and maybe it was a cover for being gay or maybe it was some grand conspiracy to distract from other things? I guess if he really believes the latter he's nuts but I'm not really sure why I should be outraged by any of this. But I'm pretty lost so maybe I'm just missing it.

I think the timing of it is the thing. Rather than just saying "Te'o had a made up girlfriend, possibly to cover up the fact he's gay" which is a weird but still possibly valid theory, he's drawing paranoid conspiracy links between that coming out at the same time as Armstrong's interview and Obama strengthening gun control.

So rather than say this is all happening at the same time to cover it up, he's saying the Lizard King is among us which is why all this poo poo is happening NOW man! :tinfoil:

That and the implication he is gay was basically mocking in tone, not exactly the best way to come off.

I guess "MenLove" is mocking but it doesn't strike me as homophobic on its own. At least not like real homophobic instead of just generic "guys who call other guys gay as an insult because they've never really thought about the sociological implications" homophobic.

But it's a kind of societal unintentional kind. I'm not saying its a good thing, I'm saying its different from yelling "fag". It's ignorance born from a society never really confronting you with it. If you're like Scorpio Sky and society does confront you and you flip a finger and use it more, then you're an rear end in a top hat. If you're like Michael Cole and someone confronts you and you apologize than maybe you're alright. It's a lot of context and intent, unless you're going to just call everyone who ever says something offensive or stupid scum. Which I guess you can if you want but that's going to be a huge list.

The problem is, and this really is a discussion that is extremely in depth and not for this thread, differentiating between different kinds of homophobia is a net negative. Saying "generally accepted"/"not that bad" homophobic things is still a poo poo thing to do, whether you are calling someone a fag or using stupid loving jokes like that (or Cena promos).

Long story short, saying offensive and stupid things does make you scummy, and there's nothing wrong with that being a big list. I mean just because a dude says something scummy doesn't mean you necessarily need to write him off, but it at least puts him in a poor light because he still said something offensive and stupid.

Well I'm not defending what he said, but I'm also not reading deeper intent or feelings into it. The reaction just seemed really strong to something I could easily hear The Rock saying on Monday Night (the ManLove thing, not the weird conspiracy thing).

If that's the case, I can only assume he used Heath Slater as bait.
