Absolutely disgusting tweet by the owner of the Florida Panthers. Here is more context.

Imagine being that rich and still tweeting like a 14 year old CoD player

Real question. Even though I'm certain it's just projection. Where did the anti semite thing come from?

OP added a link above. Here's a screenshot of the start of it on X.

Probably the post/comment he replied to that upset him.

We need to somehow get it into Donald's head that Israel should be the 51st state.

Floridaman moment

Do they add meth to the water supply in Florida? Yikes.

Gotta replace the fluoride with something.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Maybe too much fluoride, that's why they're so developmentally challenged over there.

Yeah, the Palestinians are Semites. If anyone is antisemitic, it's the Zionist colonists who came from Europe. People don't have beef with Judaism or Israel in this case. They have a beef with genocidal Zionists.

Palestinians

Read this as panthers. Was confused how puma concolor was semitic for a few beats.

It's nice that FloridaMan had time to reveal his inner racist. Maybe he can understand why Canada wouldn't touch his state with a 10 metre pole.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

The metre pole detail is just mmm! chef’s kiss

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

For the Americans 10 meters is roughly 37 Subway "footlongs".

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Now I'm thinking about companies using footlongs to pull off shrinkflation.

Going to go rent a 14 footlong truck from uhaul.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

Well, with America's current lack of regulation? I'd expect to see that soon! Or companies charging more for the actual spec.

Annnnnd just like that I care about the Leafs in the playoffs, now. I really hope we can make that man sadder.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 hours ago

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news...

When this whole fucking thing backfires and we end up with a communist revolution, there's going to be a lot of people in a real big hurry to delete their xitter accounts.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

Yeah that's not gonna happen. It's gonna be a few decades of fascism and then back to neoliberals.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 minutes ago

Don't be ludicrous, the climate will collapse before the neoliberals rebuild their power structures.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I mean, a guy can cope, okay?

We're not going to get that far, though. We've got a poly ecological crisis happening right now between insect extinction, microplastics in brain tissue and inhibiting photosynthesis, and climate change, and the right has decided (thanks to some generous donations) that long term growth is woke, we need maximum profits right up until everyone is dead. We're just gonna plug our ears and yell "la la la can't hear you" while the lights flicker out one by one, and then all at once.

Archive it all.

Maybe it’s Viking blood in me or something, but I really want this man afraid to show his face in my country…

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 hours ago

What an ass.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

That's not the owner of the Panthers according to Wikipedia, but absolutely disgusting nonetheless.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 7 hours ago

This is the Florida Panthers Vice Chairman, Partner and Alternate Governor, Doug Cifu, talking shit to a Maple Leafs fan last night.

He's part of the board of the company that owns it.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

Is there more context for this?

[–] [email protected] 50 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Rich people are often cunts.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 hours ago

Often is a weird way of spelling always

The only recent news I'm aware of where the words Israel and Toronto are relevant is university of Toronto faculty voting to divest from Israel, but something tells me this guy isn't one to keep up with news from academia.
