Bluesky's "Muted Words and Tags" settings FTW, bay-bee!
Occasionally see some clicky-baity headline in my external news feed, and savor the knowledge that I now know better than to click on certain wrestling "news" sites that I know are full of grift and grifting grifters. kthxbye!
Look at this site. AEW fans share that shit constantly and argue with the logic (there isn't any logic) every day. If they stopped, and there truly was only Fed fans reading it, there wouldn't be nearly as much money in it.
Also; look at Twitter, the hell scape persists being super toxic around AEW, despite most of the AEW fandom jumping ship… the grifting won’t stop as long as it favours the biggest company :(
AEW fans have one of the biggest hand in it. Screenshoting, sharing and commenting on the hate and the grifting does exactly what they want, even indirectly. The community falls for it every time. Once their statement becomes topic of conversation it spreads. All they got to do is DNI.
Seriously, AEW doesn’t need a defense force. The best thing a fan can do is express their enjoyment for the product and express THEIR own criticisms imo. Bad faith takes are beyond easy to spot at this point. And when it’s as blatant as it’s been it’s that much easier to scroll past.
my friend is such a huge part of this problem. bro can’t enjoy wrestling without getting defensive and making arguments against idiots. i’m like dude, can we just have fun watching the show we love? none of those people are here, and i do not care about their hater opinions
That's part of what pushed me to this platform. I see bullshit, I can't help but argue it. I understand that that actually helps perpetuate it, so I went somewhere where I didn't have to see it.
I just wish people would stop reposting those AEW hate bait posts because I have most of those people blocked and still see them bc they get screen shotted and reposted to complain about them. People just need to block and move on and those hate bait accounts would die a slow death
Yeah, I get to see everybody complain about the grifters complaining and whatnot, but I've yet to ever see anyone actually first hand complaining about the "issues" of aew.
Thankfully I don't click on any of that shite these days, it's just now trying to resist napalm bombing the crap takes telling them why what they're saying is dumb and should fuck off.
I think that's a harder task for people than stop clicking on hate bait imo.
Blows me away how on any given podcast regardless of their stance on AEW, 80% of the minutes go to AEW which is less than 50% total TV time for wrestling, and 1/3rd the audience roughly. If AEW went away, half of wrestling podcasts would be done.
Of all of them out there that are extremely critical of AEW, Cornette is the one who I feel certain will still have plenty of other things to talk about.

When one of those shill channels pops up on my YT I long press the video and select "Don't Recommend Channel" and immediately 👎 any video that does a heel turn mid video.
You noticed they stopped allowing that on some channels recently? Like I can't ban GB News (basically the UK version of Fox News) at all, and some personal channels don't have the option either.
I haven't specifically, but then again all I really watch is stuff like AVGN, Jake Munro, Asmon, Moist, Brian Zane and a shit ton of reaction videos, so it's a non-issue for me, but that's pretty scummy, ngl. I want my YouTube curated to what I want to see and that seems immoral.

I guess Bluesky is still safe?
