Look, I try. Most of the time. I’m trying to be empathetic and nice and inclusive. But sometimes I wonder while fully grown adults can’t use Google. Why they would believe the most obvious lies (“they’re eating the dogs” is a great example - an absurd lie that was debunked 100x by every outlet within days). Again these are fully grown adults who choose to be hateful, angry and wilfully ignorant. In fact they revel in that ignorance. Warnings are “alarmist”, factchecks are “biased”, opponents are “traitors”. These are fully grown adults that would trade the price of eggs for suffering of thousands of “illegals” and they entrust this trade to Donald Trump, a man who in his life has never taken a shot into a toilet that wasn’t made out of gold. Like yeah, sure, THAT guy is gonna care about the poor.
My point is, we’re all adults, we all make our choices as best we can. But if you keep making the same terrible choices and yell at anyone who tries to tell you they are bad choices, well… You deserve what’s coming to you, because you’ve unleashed that on all of us.
I started watching them in season 2, where a common phrase the TV commentators were using was “outscoring our problems” and praising the depth. I wonder what happened, the Kraken seem so… joyless most of the time.
Kakko was definitely a great pickup. It seems like anytime there’s a new guy on the team, they have a great start. Tatar had a good start last year too. Let’s hope Kakko stays a bit longer.
I really hope they rally a little. Gru is already in the AHL, I don’t think scapegoating the goalie will work the second time.
One day, decades from now, people will read about these men in the same way we read about Mussolini and Hitler. They’ll be reading with bated breath about the atrocities they committed and we’ll be asked by our grandchildren how was it possible to even happen. Hopefully they’ll live in a world where none of this would be possible and they won’t comprehend the evil and cruelty that we got to witness, they won’t be able to understand how so many millions cheered for these monsters. Come to think of it, I don’t understand why so many millions cheer for them today.
