Censorship at its best. If you're not for me.... wishing you all the best from the Netherlands

Jesse Marsch is a very brave man and an incredible human being for saying what must be on the lips of the vast majority of Americans. People need to speak out and let the orange turd and his followers know that they don’t have them on their side!

Jesse Marsch should tell them to go f*** themselves and continue to stand on principle.

SPEAK OUT! Yell! Every bully hates when he has no victim. We are trying, America is NOT him😢

Free speech.

mikola13.bsky.social•4 days ago

Trumpian freedom of speech

samsonlj.bsky.social•4 days ago

Piss on them …. You have free speech in Canada, say what you think. We think he’s an ass here in the states,too.

Dear @theathleticfc.bsky.social team: the podcast was going great and then you spent all that time interviewing Alexi Garbage who had NOTHING to provide and never has anything to provide. You let him ramble his garbage for so long that he said the same garbage twice. You ruined an excellent report.

tRUMP is an unbelievable creep. thinks he is dictator of the world.

dvezzosi.bsky.social•5 days ago

The new administration's idea of free speech must have been taken from the one in Italy or Germany, in the 30s of last century

tooleo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Or from USA during the 50s of the same century…

idyllicstorm.bsky.social•5 days ago

Freedom of speech, but only when I agree with you.

devokneivel.bsky.social•5 days ago

And Alexis Lalas is a total arrogant prick as usual.

mrhortywho.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah, I just listened to the podcast; insufferably arrogant and ignorant. Even worse than I expected.

devokneivel.bsky.social•4 days ago

I had to turn it off. But it made the point if why Canada and Mexico are so angry.

mrhortywho.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'm still glad Adam interviewed him though. It showed everyone how terrible he, and all Trumper supporters, are. No self-awareness at all, no "Yes, I have some friends who are a little worried, blah blah."

Just straight up, "I love everyone hating us, it just means they're jealous!"

It is weakness. He feels strength because of what others think about him.

A man-child like the rest.

omalley-rules.bsky.social•4 days ago

devokneivel.bsky.social•5 days ago

Listening now. Great podcast

photomanva.bsky.social•4 days ago

Jesse has a spine and backbone. Much more than Trump and his magamanics

halfbit.bsky.social•4 days ago

Were those cowards Or were those threats?

hachijuhachi.bsky.social•4 days ago

Trump is the pettiest tyrant

goosubucks.bsky.social•4 days ago

All the more reason to speak out.

tomshenk.bsky.social•5 days ago

Keep speaking up Jesse.

tilmane.bsky.social•4 days ago

Threats and Fear are what Team #Trump et al. is up for:

elgatonyc.bsky.social•4 days ago

All 50? lol. The bootlicking thugs!

notetherapy.bsky.social•4 days ago

If Israel can acknowledge the truth, why not the rest of the global media, particularly in Western nations?

terfra1.bsky.social•4 days ago

Speak the truth. Sure, the orange buffoon will look to insult you at every opportunity, but in all actuality, he just proves what a low life scum he really is.

emerald-aly.bsky.social•4 days ago

Telling him that there are risks to speaking out publicly can be read two ways.

Are the callers telling him that Trump might make his life difficult, or that *they themselves* might?

tacomacomics.bsky.social•4 days ago

I support Jesse Marsch.

Jesse is not one to be intimidated. Push back and do not comply!

The Fascists are using fear to keep everyone in line. Not falling into line neuters them.

hillgiant.bsky.social•4 days ago

Classy American. Hard to find these days.

omalley-rules.bsky.social•4 days ago

Not hard to find. About 50% of the country is disgusted. I'm not sure how making us hated by the world makes us great.

gherrera0.bsky.social•4 days ago

Jesse Marsch deserves all my respect!

averagehoser.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yet another sign we’ve got a fascist regime in the White House.

On a related note, only small weak men fixate on what people say about them, and assholes retaliate.

hutj1.bsky.social•4 days ago

I appreciated his statement all the more because it felt at the time like he was a lone voice speaking out while other mainstream voices were still treating it like a joke. THANK YOU JESSE MARSCH.

desertdane.bsky.social•4 days ago

sambelman.bsky.social•4 days ago

Speaking out publicly against the president?

Don’t millions of people do that daily?

nallasample.bsky.social•4 days ago

… and then some.

justanoaccountname.bsky.social•4 days ago

Then speak louder. Screw these people.
