I don't like any reality where the Japanese death forest YouTuber who decided to play boxer, is anything resembling a voice of reason

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemmy.world 64 points 2 months ago

jake paul is the boxer, logan went to wwe

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Didn't he do boxing for a bit first? Ngl I don't really keep up with him

[-] zout@fedia.io 38 points 2 months ago

They're not, everything they do is calculated and PR driven. If they disagree openly on Twitter like this, it's with the purpose to generate publicity to get the audience where they can shill their next scam.

[-] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 months ago

Reason is in big fucking trouble.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago

Those aren't the same. Death forest is the older one who does WWE, the younger one is the boxer and whose "merch is selling like a god church"

We have the expression (well in English for those unaware of it) of a stopped clock being right twice a day for a reason. Guess that expression is probably going to the wayside these days though. Even the worst people make an agreeable point now and then afterall.

[-] Railing5132@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

The oft-forgotten full phrase is: "a broken clock is right twice a day, but you still wouldn't use it to tell time."

Similarly, often in reference to corrupt cops or politicians: "one bad apple spoils the whole bunch."

In Germany we say, that even a blind chicken will find a grain sometimes.

THIS guy?

Yeah no. His opinion doesn't matter.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

i thought those muscles only existed in comic books

[-] Wildmimic@anarchist.nexus 4 points 2 months ago

shame he didn't break his fingers in addition to his jaw.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Assuming that's the one with the correct take: yes it does matter, him going out there and making sure his opposing opinion is know is a good thing. It doesn't directly matter to us over here, but he has a large audience and broadly that is a good thing for us.

[-] benderbeerman@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

That one is Jake, he's the one in the op at the bottom, with the intolerant opinion. He's playing a heel character here.

The other is Logan, with the message of tolerance, who is playing a face.

Neither of them is being genuine, they are just looking for attention. Both of them.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

At this point I'm willing to take the one sharing a tolerant opinion.

It's so crazy that we can come to the same conclusion and only one of us has a half decent reason.

You don't want corporations to be able to do whatever they want because you're a racist scumbag, I don't want corporations to be able to do whatever they want because they have enacted an oligarchy. We are not the same.

With no subtext whatsoever I agree with the idea of "make America great again", however I feel like the people who proudly spout that slogan would heavily disagree with the way that I would go about it. Hint: it would involve a volcano.

They've mastered the art of getting people to pay attention to them. Neither of them give a single fuck about the super bowl halftime show

I don't even know who the fuck any of these people are.

Imagine calling a boycott over a Superbowl concert and not something like

  • rent fixing
  • ticket price fixing
  • grocery price fixing
[-] MasterNerd@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago

It's performative

Those guys have had fake internet beef for years. They thrive on being controversial to each other. It is what made them famous in the first place.

I suspect this is yet an other aspect of this beef and they are only dong it for clout.

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I wish their dad Ron Paul would just give them the solid backhand they deserve

Stop giving these people the attention they are fishing for.

You guys posting there tweets are part of the problem.

[-] Bongles@lemmy.zip 15 points 2 months ago

I cannot believe that even once, I agree with suicide forest, crypto bro con artist, rug pulling Logan Paul. Even if this is just for attention, like some suggest, it's at least better to have someone wildly popular with younger people (somehow) to be saying this.

[-] D_C@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 months ago

He's a way to tell them apart...
One is idiotically stupid, and the other is stupidly idiotic.

I hope that helps.

[-] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 13 points 2 months ago

Are they related to Aaron Paul?

[-] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 20 points 2 months ago

I don't think that treasure is linked to the turd brothers. Paul isn't even his original surname.

[-] CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 months ago

They share the same grandfather, Paul Newman.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

for once i agree with jesus. three day blinding stew

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago

The guy who got his jaw broken is the younger and dumber of the two (based solely on this twitter interaction)

[-] Ratio_Tile@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

Dumber is a stretch, but yes

[-] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 months ago

I chose to not waste brain cells on trying to tell them apart.

[-] itsathursday@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Dude is in a relationship with a girl from Netherlands

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 9 points 2 months ago

Which dude and why is that important?

[-] vodka@feddit.org 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Jake is the one with the Dutch girlfriend (she is also a top tier Olympic athlete)

As for why it's important? I guess they're trying to comment on an American with a foreign gf being a racist or something
