Islanders not wearing pride warmups or using rainbow tape on pride night - citing organizational policy

[MeHateHe]

Jordan Peterson, he either complies and has to go through an online re-education process or lose his license.

You understand that that's coming from the professional body that he belongs to, right? That they were investigating whether or not he was violating core tenets of his profession?

Please educate us on the details of what this "LGBTQ ideology" entails. This should be a hoot.

No thanks, that's a good way to get banned on HF. Also it is ideologies not just one because each letter is a group unto itself.

I deleted most social media because it sucks and its boring but holy hell the amount of straight bashing i saw saying straight people are so basic to straight people's existence is oppressing mine so all straight people should be murdered and a lot in between that, no I am not exaggerating but usually yes it probably came from the loudest ones, i know not all gay people are heterophobic and not all straight people really care that much to hunt them down and beat them up or care to disparage them most people just wanna live their life and not be consistently battered with political positions and opinions gay and straight

Signal boosting this post because this is the post of all time

I guess that makes straight people an IdEoLoGy too, doesn't it

Wait what? Hockey Fights Cancer… Military… St. Patrick’s Day? The f***? The league mandates St. Patrick’s Day warmups?

Hockey Fights Cancer makes sense since it's a league wide initiative, the other two are stupid.

I know more people under 25 that consider themselves "anti-woke" than anything else.

face it, wokeism is cringe and a dying fad.

Idk I work at a college and I feel the exact opposite seeing these kids.

So noble and courageous, I’ll never wear a colorful jersey for 15 minutes!! Gotta show those people that face discrimination everyday

Because wearing those colorful jerseys for 15 minutes will really combat that.

Best selling book series of all time by a margin of 150M copies. Might be a stretch calling them “the greatest novels ever written” but you could make a case for it. When Pottermania was at it’s peak there was nothing quite like it. While they are teen fiction books I can’t deny they are masterpieces.

Yes and usually that is prompted by direct complaints or secondary complaints by clients. All of the complaints though come from non clients found online. Sounds like the process has been compromised due to social pressure.

The clothes you're currently wearing aren't combatting anything. Yet you still wear them.

Well if you actually read the article: "the Islanders have never worn rainbow jerseys due to an organizational policy against wearing specialized warmups. The only ones they wear are mandated by the league: Hockey Fights Cancer, Military and St. Patrick’s Day."

Saint Patrick’s day lol



I hesitated to criticize because I figured Lou had something to do with it



Bigger picture o sorta defended Provorov, then thought the Rangers overreacted in the other direction as basically nothing happened to Provorov or would happen to others players. That was kinda chicken of them, but this is just typical Lou stuff.

 

[notsocommonsense]

yeah threads like these get shot down faster than a Chinese spy balloon on here.

To be fair, that’s not very fast

 

[Love]

The Rangers did this too. Not sure why it’s news for the Isles but not the Rangers.

 

[Green]

Joke, surprised Anders Lee who by all accounts seems like a solid guy would allow this

How do you know if it will or won't? What if a LGBT youth/adult sees those jerseys being worn on ESPN or on social or something and gets into the sport of hockey? This assumption that the jerseys can't be a door for someone is wild, lol.

 

[Frank Drebin]

What a trend that piece of shit Provorov started.

What is the trend?

 

[Sheppy]

LOL, 7 pages already.

Go outside.

kids that go to college these days are immature dolts that can't even tell you the answer to 2+2 is 4.

There's a reason Islam and Christianity and other religions aren't taught in schools. They are ideologies as well. LGBTQ+ ideologies aren't any different.

This shows you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what LGBTQ+ even means.
