MMA and football both take a lot of talent and thought behind what they practice. I wouldn't say either of them were mindless.

2018-01-07 01:37:48 UTC  

I'm talking watching it

2018-01-07 01:38:22 UTC  

Watching someone get the shit beat out of them is mindless (but fun mind you) entertainment

2018-01-07 01:41:47 UTC  

I'll say on the surface it is, and for many viewers it is. However, if you are really into the sport, and actually have knowledge about what they are doing, like their footwork, or how they grip someone or how they move to take someone off their feet. There is a lot of physics involved in that, and those competitors are, or at least have, while practicing, thought about those things.

I know I'm one of those who like to watch MMA and really enjoy when they are grapling on the ground. Many viewers don't enjoy that chess match, but thats really what it is. A challenge between 2 people trying out smart their opponent, and use tactics that put them into a better position to overcome any advantage their opponent might have.

As a kid who's dad was a football coach, I can say with confidence theres a hell of a lot more to football than "mindless entertainment." My father and Uncle have gotten into arguements about formations and such I don't even understand.

2018-01-07 02:59:14 UTC  

Football is a very tactical game, much like chess, and like others i enjoy watching the games with close scores and alot at stake. However, we (the general public) need to understand there is a time and place for that entertainment. The amount of effort we put into watching these games should also be put into watching our government and social structure. I'm sad to say that, although there are many that do so, the amount of individuals truly educated as to the events happening around them is far lower than what we must have inorder to defend our given liberties.

2018-01-07 04:04:49 UTC  

It is

2018-01-07 04:05:11 UTC  

I will admit being someone who has played lineman it's an art.

2018-01-07 04:12:45 UTC  

But I'm just talking generally speaking

2018-01-07 05:13:57 UTC  

Jesus christ, I used to always think of the alt-right as a funny meme, but now I'm beggining to actually hate them. They keep going after Sargon like he got his ass-raped in that Spencer debate, and will completely refuse any facts presented to them that don't suit their baseless agenda. We should treat them just as we treat the far-left.

2018-01-07 05:14:41 UTC  

Yeah

2018-01-07 05:14:50 UTC  
2018-01-07 05:15:06 UTC  

His horseshoe theroy is right and they hate it

2018-01-07 05:15:19 UTC  

Just replace the Jews with the white man and rich

2018-01-07 05:16:03 UTC  

And you got the perfect SJW narrative

2018-01-07 05:17:10 UTC  

I go to Gab to get away from the far-left on Twitter, and get met with the far-right, god damn the identity politics will not cease

2018-01-07 05:17:20 UTC  

Yeah the alt right hasn't really been that big of a target mostly due to the whole "enemy of my enemy is my friend" thing.

2018-01-07 05:17:37 UTC  

@Howler4695 not far right at least not in the American sense

2018-01-07 05:17:48 UTC  

I see far right as Ancaps

2018-01-07 05:18:07 UTC  

@Converted Weeb What do you mean???

2018-01-07 05:18:26 UTC  

I mean the fact that the American right is very small government

2018-01-07 05:18:54 UTC  

Now the most extreme of that is Anarcho Capitalism

2018-01-07 05:19:46 UTC  

The alt-right is honestly more left than right

2018-01-07 05:20:28 UTC  

Socialist

2018-01-07 05:21:00 UTC  

Hence why NatSocs are so popular in the alt-right even though they are just socialist more focused on building up their own country and race than actually spreading the revolution

2018-01-07 05:21:12 UTC  

What's a NatSoc?

2018-01-07 05:21:26 UTC  

Oh nevermind National Socialist.

2018-01-07 05:22:53 UTC  

Though really the actual like "kill all blacks the holohoax is a lie" people in the alt-right is a small minority

2018-01-07 05:23:10 UTC  

A very loud and annoying minority

2018-01-07 05:23:42 UTC  

Like the Westboro Baptists

2018-01-07 05:23:49 UTC  

The way the alt-right gets you is the you believe in x then you are y just like feminist and the SJWs

2018-01-07 05:24:05 UTC  

Most Christians hate them, but others assume normal Christians endorse them

2018-01-07 05:24:13 UTC  

Oh

2018-01-07 05:24:20 UTC  

Try being a Baptist

2018-01-07 05:24:41 UTC  

Oh yeah forgot there are sane baptists...

2018-01-07 05:24:50 UTC  

See how effective having a shitty ally is?

2018-01-07 05:25:14 UTC  

Yeah

2018-01-07 05:26:11 UTC  

Dunno if this quote applies, but most people judge their opponents by their worst members and their own side by their best intentions.

2018-01-07 05:26:35 UTC  

I dont think theres many people out there who are doing this cause they are genuinely evil or anything.
