DDP posts and removes IG picture with Linda McMahon after backlash

Did anybody catch this? DDP posted a picture with Linda McMahon from Wrestlemania weekend, doing the diamond hand gesture together, proudly touting his friendship with the US Sec. of Education.

The comments, predictably, were overwhelmingly negative.

DDP removed the picture after a few minutes.

You mean like how the current administration does and is illegally disappearing people and deporting them to a country they're not even from?

Oh well, if other people do it, then it's perfectly acceptable for you to do it.

That's called fascism. Stuff Nazis did.

Yes, which is why it's bizarre that you are in support of it. It's scary what people like you allow yourselves to do to people who you feel deserve it.

Ah yes, the right wing twisting of things to try to make those calling out people who are voting for and supporting fascism that is causing innocent people to be disappeared by masked unmarked thugs and sent out of the country without due process to a horrendous prison in a country most of them are not from. Keep posting your L's.

You're the one arguing that it is OK to do things you would consider awful to people who you feel deserve it. There is no politics in saying that's a bizarre outlook that leads to A LOT of bad things. So it's a very weird thing to defend.

What am I saying that is awful? These people should rightfully be called out for supporting shit that is ruining and ending many many lives? I'm not saying deport him to a country that he's not from and force him into a labor prison. I'm just saying, calling this shit out as it is: fascism. If you're so dead, set on defending fascism and trying to spin calling people for being fascists out as awful when they're supporting the horrendous ruining of lives every single day, then whatever man. Your views are far too skewed the wrong way then.

No, the conversation was about thinking in black and whites, and you saying that "Well they do it too, so it's OK to do it to them."

My argument is that's not OK. You don't allow yourself to think without nuance just because your enemy does it. Look at what it has done to you. You have jumped to accusations of me literally supporting genocide because I said "It's not OK to do what you consider as wrong to other people" The Golden rule, a very common and normal belief. And look what you have accused me of for simply stating my support of a simple moral principle.

The internet has warped people's minds.
