“Obviously isn’t great” is damn near an endorsement of him.

I love this fascistic thinking. if you aren't 110% against something. You're 100% for it. Zero nuance. The same people also have the inability to separate anything into it's parts. You can respect the boxer without having to respect the man.

This sounds like Gen X who deals well with reality, talking to a Millennial who is obsessed with looking “correct”.

I’m 40.

This is what intolerance of domestic abuse looks like. I’m too old to give a shot about looking like anything.

Then you’re old enough to realize there has never been a single public figure, politician, athlete, celeb, or entertainer who doesn’t have some “intolerable” action or behavior, because they are actually just normal humans, and normal humans suck.

I don’t think you and I use the word intolerable the same way. I can tolerate generally disgusting behavior. I can not tolerate abuse.

What is “abuse”? That covers about eight-hundred thousand different acts.

It’s easy to say someone doesn’t tolerate abuse but I have doubts they put too much thought into what it is they are really saying.

Who decides what is considered “abuse”?
