Around the NHL

If you're going to cry because Ovie supports Putin then link that to supporting fascists it just shows you're totally ignorant because Putin and fascism are different political takes. Simple terms elude you. We could go to the Italians who created fascism as a split from Marxism in the early 1900s, but you've demonstrated you aren't informed enough for that. We could point out that no political or economic theory has a damned thing to do with individual accomplishments, again beyond your demonstrated capacity.

The reality is that an individual is on pace to break another individual's on ice accomplishments ... politics have not a damned thing to do with that. Injecting politics is asinine. If you disagree, you're allowed to be wrong in the US and you can thank millions for that right.

You can support goal-scorers who support Putin, you can support rap artists who are anti-semitic and promote nazism, you can support movie producers who prey on women. You can support any of those types of people in the entertainment industry if you want to. It's your right. It tells me something about you as an individual if you do, however. If you say it's "political".... I disagree. It's morality, plain and simple.

Nowhere did I support a thing. Keep making your ignorance based ad hominem attacks. Who has the record is the person who has it. ... period. Again, dealin in the objective real world.

Then I guess if you don't support Ovechkin, don't complain if other people have a reason not to support him? Speaking up against the objections paints you in a certain light. There is no objectivity needed here. Be subjective. Take a side for what's right and what's wrong.

Can we just like... Not? This hockey season has been bad enough as is.

It doesn't matter if I agree or disagree with who he supports politically. Either he is or isn't the top goal scorer in the league ... surpassing Gretzky or not ... who did in fact pass Howe ... who passed Richard ... who passed Lach ... all of whom will be passed by someone else. What he does on the ice is what he does on the ice ... objectively. There is no subjectiveness to it.

Objectively you showed you lack the ability to differentiate between significant political theories when you mixed supporting Putin with fascism.

You exemplify what is wrong with your inability to discuss a topic without injecting ignorance based political rantings and ad hominem attack fallacies.
