TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Retired wrestler Hulk Hogan and a friend rescued a teenage girl who was trapped in an overturned vehicle after a crash in Florida, according to Hogan’s social media posts.

“I don’t know if Brooke was f***ing the black guy’s son,” Hulk raved, the sources add.
“I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f***ing n****s. But then when it comes to nice people and s***, and whatever.” …
“I guess we’re all a little racist. F***ing n*****.”
Heroes can also be big pieces of shit.
Why do racists always pretend everyone else is secretly like them?
In that one respect, they are accidentally right. Everyone has implicit racial biases whether they realize it or not.
To claim one is 100% not racist is basically akin to “I don’t even see color.” It is denial, often self-denial. This is just sociology.
The best way to minimize this reality is to be self-aware of one’s own biases and make conscious effort not to act on those biases.
It is more damaging to pretend you have no implicit racial bias whatsoever and therefore nothing you can do could possibly have racially based motivations. Proud racists use this line of thinkng to attack critical race theory, a valid sociological concept.
People are pattern matching machines. If you don’t find and work to remove racist patterns, your machine is broken. Clean your shit. It’s good for you.

Nah.
I’m aware of my biases. It’s not a factor in them.
Okee 🤷
A lot of people, especially racists, lack empathy. They probably can’t truly conceive of what it’s like to live in a brain that’s not racist; therefore, everyone must be racist.
I’ve seen good men do bad things, bad men do good things. Whether you’re gonna end up in heaven or hell, it’s not God’s plan, it’s your own. You just gotta remember what it was.

I’ll give him bare minimal credit for admitting it.
It’s a really low bar these days.
edit: what part of “it’s a really low bar these days” don’t some of you understand?
To quote the great dril:
You do not, under any circumstances, “gotta hand it to them”
I didn’t have to do anything, I chose to. Doesn’t mean I agree with his views or think he’s any less a piece of shit for it. At least he has more sense of self awareness than racists who deny it because they have a black coworker or something.
By saying it, he’s telling people who like him that it’s okay. Especially kids, who want to be like their heroes. With great power comes great responsibility.
What kid is even looking up the Hulk Hogan these days though, dudes like 70 and hasn’t been relevant in the 21st century. Him being racist shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Wrestling fans on the regular play the “Well. Chris Benoit was an amazing wrestler and we should respect his work, even if we don’t respect the man” card that almost invariably turns into gushing stories about how much people used to love a violent bully who murdered his wife and child.
Most people never actually saw hogan wrestle (he had long since stopped giving a shit by the time his “prime” started) but that won’t stop people from wanting to talk about what an amazing guy he was because they watched a WWE dvd about it.
Any kid who likes wrestling knows who Hulk Hogan is. And people who still like him use his excuses to do or say bad things.
Well we should probably keep those kids from listening to his racist rants or watching his sex tape or watching his horrible reality tv show then. Wouldn’t want “the children” to learn he’s a piece of shit or something I guess?
Pick better heros kids.
Still doesn’t change my reaction to it. But keep lecturing like you’re educating someone if it makes you feel better.
Your “angry for no reason because I cannot manage my emotions” reaction? 😘
I’m not angry at all, feel free to say whatever or blow kisses. More likely you’re upset that I’m not backpedaling from my natural reaction, and it’s up to you to get over it. Or don’t. Doesn’t matter.
Considering what a carnie fuck this man is (look up how he narced on and killed any attempt at unionization in professional wrestling) and the vague reference to “a friend”: I would wager money that this is the always sunny bit where they are setting up “disasters” for Sweet Dee to be a hero during.
Dipshit probably needs some money and wants another WWE payday.
“His new wife, yoga instructor Sky Daily, took to Facebook to praise the quick action…” — I read this too quickly and got to the end of the article thinking Sky Daily was a blog or tabloid. Anyway… Hulk Hogan’s wife is named Sky Daily?! Wtf.
Maybe she smokes more than Snoop
Did he tell the journalist this or is there viable witnesses? I mean, it is Hulk Hogan were talking about.
he used a ball point pen to puncture the car’s airbag and free the girl after witnessing the accident
Don’t airbags deflate on their own after a few seconds?
Oh yeah, brother.
He was just out bounty hunting and…oh wait that’s the other guy.
Listen here brother! When hulkamania comes to town, the dogs run and hide! However, The Dog and Hulkster do get down with that racist shit tho. Brother!
Hul Khogan*
He’s still trash.
