I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

Except that there are a fair few Americans who are actively fighting back and taking care of each other.

And these people seem to rarely have the humility required to pull back to listen and learn about other things they might have been wrong about.

I'm proud of the Canadian women for giving them such a hard time in the gold medal game, TBH. The US women played awesome. I mean, they had a 100% penalty kill! They were favourites for a reason.

So, you have no actual evidence, then. Got it.

Since you don't seem to want to engage in a real discussion - just to repeat that Canadians and Americans are different - and won't explain your racist meme, I'm gonna peace out of this conversation.

(Side note, I'm Canadian.)

Do you have any evidence that Canadian NHLers are not pretty likely to be conservative?

And why does your profile picture include a right-wing meme character?

But we're not talking about a random subset of Canadians here. We're talking about affluent white guys who often don't have college / university degrees. Pretty much the primo conservative demographic.

The misogyny and racism in hockey culture runs deep and is not a specifically American phenomenon. Look at Wayne Gretzky FFS!

We know that the men got a charter flight back and the women flew commercial. What's up with that?

Are they actively championing women's hockey in some way, with their voices or their money?

Or does "support" mean being friendly (or at least not actively hostile) and nothing more?

It's about wanting to avoid the natural consequences of their choices.

Maybe for some, it's more about cowardice.

Regardless, there is a lot of talk about how much the men support the women and vice versa. But what does that actually mean? Has there been material or practical support?

Disappointed in Jack Hughes' "haters gonna hate" response to questions about the men's hockey team disrespecting the women's team.

Reminds me of an essay about how a lot of right-wingers want to have awful views and do awful things, but also want to have friends.

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Congratulations for making it about you. She's aware it's #NotAllMen. Instead of engaging with the issue of the men in sports who are misogynists, you chose to try to pull the focus. May not have been your intent, but that's what it amounts to.
