one thing that is funny about m.arner fans though is that they ARE convinced that he is the first player ever to suffer from misogyny in hockey culture when don c.herry and his ilk have been calling euro players pussies derogatorily for time immemorial

#the culture is bad i agree but we cannot pretend this is an issue new and unique to just your guy lmfao #but of course things like this don’t exist until it happens to a guy you like etc #like i saw a tweet yesterday that said ‘i think mm is the first male hockey victim of misogyny’ please be serious……#also here’s the thing: yes this does contribute to the vitriol he faces from a certain 🤨 subset of the fanbase #that being said.#his last contract negotiations were a masterclass in pissing away every bit of goodwill he had as the sunny beloved hometown boy.#i know your memories are short but he was genuinely by and large really loved #and because this fanbase can’t survive without some guy to hate it was always william catching heat LOL #but yeah the current climate is like.#some of it is misogyny. some of it is that he’s clearly playing hurt and so he’s bad and people are stupid.#and some of it is that he and his camp actively turned the fanbase against him with the way they behaved #meg.txtpost
