It’s good this wasn’t happening in Rocky 4. He wouldn’t have allowed Rocky to fight Ivan Drago. Wait!- he might have saved Creed’s life! What a hero he would have been!Last edited by Casualfanboy; 11-09-2022, 04:06 AM.

This should have been done way back in feb when the war started. Now they allowed russian boxers to base themselves in other countries, take citizenship over there and pretend that they are from another country. WBC allowed them ample time to change their status.

The WBC is effectively saying, "We are opposed to Russia's oppression of the Ukrainian people. Therefore we will oppress Russians." It's the same kind of logic that leads people to believe that to end racism and ***ism you have to be racist and ***ist. It's the insanity of "the ends justifies the means."
Everyone is John Lennon (no countries, no religion, no possessions, and the brotherhood of man) until there's an opportunity to be "noble" in the post-modern sense of the word, that is, "to pretend to suffer on someone else's behalf." Then it's magically valid to see someone as wholly a national of this State or that. There's never any real sacrifice on the part of the hero, which is why it always takes the form of scapegoating, an act that turns upon the ridiculous notion that power only exists in absolute terms where there are strictly aggressors and strictly victims and nothing in between.
The Medico-Techno-Media complex in the US, almost before the conflict even began, identified Ukraine as the helpless victim and Russia as some axis of evil, and we were all supposed to agree with that, when the bottom line is that Ukraine simply didn't play its cards right. Of course bad things are going to happen when you ally yourself with so-called superpowers more concerned with "social equity" and letting a man use a woman's bathroom than being strong and rational and virtuous.Last edited by sirculturevulture; 11-09-2022, 08:16 AM.
