​@@jonbourgoin182 Are you dense? Val has been the one going after Cody on twitter to try and stay relevant. He's the one who can't take Cody having different opinions than him.

[@eriksparks9179]

​​@@jonbourgoin182Are you kidding me? There is nobody on earth more thin skinned than Donald Trump. The mere suggestion that his rally crowd sizes have shrunk made him lose his mind on the debate stage. Trump whines and cries on Twitter anytime Jimmy Kimmel makes a joke about him. Trump and the entire MAGA cult are the most easily triggered, butthurt group of people I've ever seen.

I think Edge divorced his sister just to get away from him 😂

They were on the same roster between 2004-2007. I remember Val even appearing on RAW several times during that period just to lose to Edge.

About Val, to quote Fred Durst: "You're denied, cos your brain's fried from the sack."

Love your wrestling takes. Your lack of knowledge of the current political landscape is kind of embarrassing while you try and embarrass others for their knowledgeable conclusions

I promise you val has never read the communist manifesto or das capital or lenin if thats what he got from those books he's more in tune with the protcols of the elders of Zion than any far left literature

It's great that alongside Val's "too dumb to know how..." there is an example from Brian and Jim with them not knowing what a person would mean by "the literature". lol.

" ThoseRepublicans are stupid and unhinged, I'm going to vote for socialism and chemically castrating children" -Jim Cornette

[@NickC979]

There's something almost adorable about people who still worry about communists in this day and age. Right wingers love to throw around the word communist and socialist the same way a 3rd grader would call someone a doody-head or some other purile attempt at an insult.

[@FunhausRyan]

[@cheesezee86]

And when they call neo libs, lefties

[@insupportofjunhado]

A problematic philosophy will always be a problematic philosophy, but these guys could at least be honest about it. Like, the closest thing to being pro communist I've ever heard Jim Cornette say is that the concept of a billionaire is stupid because it's more money than anyone can reasonably spend in a lifetime...that or the definition of success is how much money one needs to no longer have to deal with people they don't want to. If anyone knows anything about communism one would realize that's not close to the ideology at all. There are still politically parties that actually, openly identify as communist. Do a web search for one of them and type mean things about its members, if you're so bothered.

[@jukkahurskainen5192]

As a Finnish person who is old enough to have lived right next (sbout 50-60 kilometers from the border) to Soviet Union, it’s funny seeing these “ThAtS CaMmUnIsMs!1!” Tweets and comments from people who have never seen communist or communism in action, heh. We actually still had a frocking communist party in Finland when I was a little child, they were REALLY popular and had like a single person in the parliament and there’s over a hundred people there. A really big party has like a third of the seats so to get half, parties need to make alliances and work toward same goals on things. Too much nuance to go in a comment, maybe not perfect system but works a killion times better than 2 party weirdness. Last time, our prez was chosen from approx 20 people, from which 2 highest votes go to round 2, unless someone gets 50%+ votes on the first round and that hasn’t happened since Kekkonen in the 70’s. Now there was a popular dude, he got like 70% votes on the first round and back then, they counted the votes on radio. So for days, one of maybe 2 radio channels went “Kekkonen, Kekkonen, Kekkonen, Kekkonen, Kekkonen.” Every once and a while, there was some other names but even when I was a kid, old people joked and remembered the time when radio went Kekkonen Kekkonen Kekkonen. Anyways, Val Venis seems like a weird dude. He should have kept the washed up porn star gimmick instead of going full on conspiracy communist!

[@conniecarroll747]

Agreed. Here in the United States, in the 40s and 50s, the politicians took the entertainment industry into what has been known as the most famous witch-hunts in American History. You can easily look it up. I did research on it a few years ago, and it is frightening . It was headed by Senator Joseph McCarthy, who kept these things going for years. This man spared no one, from writers to the highest paid star. These trials were finally stopped, but not until the early 60s. It is worth reading because history does have the habit of repeating itself .

[@Andrewdyne]

Canada is a Federation with a Parliamentarian government, and there are 3 main parties with a few outliers in Parliament. We are encouraged to vote the Party, not the Person.

[@UncomfortableShoes]

Do you guys learn the political compass in Finland? Because we don’t here and I think it’s a contributing factor in people not understanding what a liberal, communist, socialist, etc really are. Also, the idea that anything “unamerican” is straight communist for decades. They don’t know anything better. It’s sad and has led to people believing utter nonsense. Constant fear of people from other countries and new ideas.

15:04 He mentioned Zayn because of his activities referring to the war in the middle east.

No. He said it because Sami and him had a big argument on twitter about a year ago. He was the one that did most of the arguing obviously, Sami just ignored him.

Keep crying Jim we loved to see you melt down like a baby. Jim’s TDS is so bad that he still supports a candidate who is endorsed by dick Cheney. A man who I guarantee Jim hated just as much as Trump if not more back when Cheney was VP. That’s how hypocritical he is. He also blocked me on X so no he doesn’t like hearing different opinions when it comes to politics.

[@yoboi9777]

Or maybe, just maybe, he doesn't like mfers Twitting random nonsense at him all day , also putin and kim jung un endorse trump and I don't think that changes your opinion about him did it?

Val Venis is right though.
