Sums up the state of the analytics v eye-test in 2024. One guy probably can't hold more than 1 thought in his head at a time, the other can't even have the conversation unless it is deemed 100% virtuous by everyone that already agrees with him.

Every time I see a public apology like this it looks the same. ChatGPT apology form letter?

Quick recap for me please:
What has TDA done or said that is so outrageous.
Legit question, as I know nothing about him really.

Apologising when it's demanded is as weak as it gets.

In theory, it would be a nice signal if 2 folks that are on complete opposite sides of the political spectrum could jump on together and just argue hockey. In practice, with these 2, it would have been a complete gong show.
Dom is soft as Charmin in focusing on winning the continued admiration of his in-group than winning an argument, but I am sure we’re all better off for Dom turtling this one.

I deem Dom to be the clear and obvious loser of this particular exchange.

It's a good question.
I recall him being a vocal far right wing guy, using far right wing language. Also a guy who has reportedly been in a scuffle in the dressing room.
If that's the case, I'm not sure why they can't have a dialogue about hockey without it becoming politicized.
It's 2024, and it's highly inappropriate to talk to people with views different from yours. If they cannot be outright banned or incarcerated, you at least need to label them contemptuously, or better yet, pretend they don't even exist. You gotta keep strictly to your own opinion bubble, and you're gonna reap lots of praise for being a good boy that way. Especially if your own bubble happens to hold the media clout.

I just realized that if my main source of information is the main stream media, I’ll always know the truth.

That aspect is for sure unsettling but some people are going to need more time to break through their cognitive dissonance. For people that truly still believe MSM, they've been under essentially a psy op for the last 8yrs+. that's going to be a tough journey for those people.
To come to terms with the fact that the people you were told were evil etc, were right all along and it was in fact the side you trusted that was lying the whole time may just be too much for some.

Dom took one step outside his little echo chamber and the pitchforks came out. Typical.

I can’t wait to see how Dom segues this into how smart he is for inventing a computer program that says Matt Nieto should be a Hart finalist.

According to this the slurs were directed at teammate Daniel Nikandrov, who is Jewish.
When the Hurricanes first signed DeAngelo in 2021, a long time poster on the Hurricanes board (who linked the artucle) claimed he heard the specific slurs were 'k*ke' and 'I'm going to rip your Jew nose off'
Confirmed with Link: - TDA -1m, 1 year
https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/luke-decock/article253083688.html The Hurricanes are bringing in a player whose past actions are reprehensible, someone who even in the most neutral light doesn’t represent what Hurricanes fans believe (or believed) their team to be.

Well, that’s a lot worse than the other story.

Anyone know when Matt Taibbi plans to detail the lengths Twitter went to influence the latest el— ah forget it.
He is a pathetic excuse for a man and a human being in general.
if you are going to bow down because a few Twitter people got angry you are pathetic.

Wasn’t Dom the one who had Quinn Hughes as a tier 3 B like a year ago?

No, he needs to wash away his sins publicly at the altar of sacrifice before he is deemed safe to frequent or discuss with.

Dom buried himself here.
The people (like Dom) who act like DeAngelo murdered someone are extremely off-putting. As much as someone like TDA if not more imo.
I'd rather tolerate people like TDA than be pressured into other peoples orthodoxy, the religious nature of it is real & repulsive.
