I'd rather not speak Ill of the dead... So I'll be quiet.
I'll do it.
Hulk Hogan was a narcissistic, racist, hypocritical piece of shit.
In the words of the immortal Sheiky Baby: FUCK THE HULK HOGAN, FUCKING BITCH!
HULK HOGAN IS BITCH I FUCK HIM IN ASS
HULK HOGAN IS A JABRONI
Break his back, then fuck his ass!
Ozzy doing us all a favour and dragging this one down to his domain.
Ozzy raised $190 for charity right before he died. Hulk Hogan doesnβt deserve to be with him.
Ozzy wouldn't be in Hell to be punished. He's there to be the punishment.
Just 190? That sounds wrong
yeah they mean $190 million.
I meant $190M.
But my point stands
Ah, that makes more sense yeah, and you're completely right
Rest in piss.
"Oh my God.
I just realized.
HULK HOGAN DIED ON THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER/RADAR ONLINE STORY THAT EXPOSED HIM AS A RACIST.
That's...insane."
The world gains another gender neutral bathroom.
Would that be his tombstone?
It's ok to speak ill of shitty people, even when they're dead. They deserve no respect.
Itβs so interesting seeing how different the reaction to him and Ozzy passing has been. I always loved Ozzy but seeing the outpouring of respect and love sent his way really touched my heart. Seeing hogan being a wet fart of a reaction has made me giggle and just shows how impactful Ozzyβs life was.
Correction: Terry Bollea, who portrayed Hulk Hogan, has died. The Hulkster was way cooler than Terry. Terry said racist things, took Peter Thiel's money to bankrupt Gawker, and was a MAGA.
took Peter Thiel's money to bankrupt Gawker
OK but... FUCK Gawker.
FUCK Gawker.
Yes. But also, fuck billionaires throwing around money to destroy things that they don't like (Thiel was pissed at Gawker for publicizing that he was gay, which, while kinda fucked up, also shouldn't allow someone to destroy a media outlet with their money).
If anyone is wondering why this community is more than happy to see Hulk in the ground, you might find this article insightful.
Hulk Hogan, Trump idol and enemy of the free press, dead at 71
kinda like how it came after fox news spent money to get the broadcast rignts to his promotion.
I'm curious to see what WWE does in tribute considering almost everyone he worked with and most current fans hate him.
I'm just happy that Jesse Ventura got to see Terry's body float downriver.
I don't necessarily mourn the person, I do mourn the character, I mourn what that character meant for professional wrestling, Hulkamania catapulted wrestling into what we know today, helped bring about Mania, the nWo leads and the Monday Night Wars, that gets us the Attitude Era, which leads to wrestling being a cultural phenomenon we'll likely never see again. I mourn that, I truly do.
Yet... Hogan made a career out of telling people to be moral All-American people, behind the scenes he was a union buster, complicit in a steroid scandal, held up others for his own gain, helped destroy a company he knew nothing about, turned out to be a racist and when he was finally allowed to return it's reported he was telling people not he was sorry just don't get caught on camera, his daughter quit talking to him because he only wanted a relationship on his terms, he went full Trump, all around he was not upholding the principles of Hulkamania. As a human I mostly find him distasteful, but not to go full on like some did today, Holy Beelzebub I dislike a some of you today even if I understand the sentiment.
Nah, fuck him. In truth, he helped to create the hellscape we all live in now, first through his wrestling career, then through the Gawker lawsuit, and then from helping Donald Trump get elected (by speaking at the RNC, among other things). He deserves every ounce of vile and venom this community can give to him.
It's fair to mourn your childhood hero and all, but that Hogan was dead for a long time already, in the graveyard of the myths we outgrow next to Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
The Iron Sheik is going to put him in the afterlife camel clutch now.
RIP Hulk Hogan.
Burn slowly, Terry Bollea.
The trash takin itself out these days. More of that plz
Fuck Terry Bolea but hearing about Hulk Hogan's death is another nail in the coffin of my youth
For those desiring a reminder: Hogan's final appearance in the pro wrestling industry
His contributions to wrestling can still be felt today. Hulkamania was a phenomenon like no other. If the dipshit had just kept quiet about his opinions, he would be mourned as a wrestling hero. But he had to open his racist mouth and become a parody of himself. One less wrestling legend, but also, one less piece of shit.
I say we turn Hulk Hogan into a left wing icon. Use his likeness to promote immigration, equality, universal healthcare, bodily autonomy, and federally legalized marijuana. Similar to how WWE tried to turn extreme homophobe, Ultimate Warrior, into a Pride symbol.
Was he about to say something about the Epstein Files?
Rip in piss fascist
