    Complaining about woke culture while living in the most woke place on earth is the height of wokeness.

    That's because DeSantis targets certain people that don't fit the Straight White Nationalist Christian mold. AOM doesn't mind that.

    You're over-reacting. Nothing to see here. There is no slippery slope. Men can have babies.

    We should drain the bank accounts of people who think Michael Jordan was not in the 95 plays offs when the Rockets smoked Orlando

    I would drain them and their kids college fund

    Who’s putting $2500 in their PayPal account?
    That needs to go directly to Clutchfans

    Just realized they upped my paypal credit limit to $2500.

    I almost posted that I believed it was actually hunter's laptop when that story broke. I wouldve been paying interest for that mistake for years.

    $2,500 is ridiculous and beyond unethical. It's one thing to ban users for bad behavior, but you can't just steal money from them.

    I think we should drain the bank accounts of the non contributing fans who dare challenge 99ers

    I'm inclined to believe Paypal on this. And it would have been defeated in a lawsuit regardless.

    As someone who ran the legal department of a major internet portal at the time - something like this doesn't "accidentally" suddenly show up in a document like that. And clearly, Paypal's former President knows that as well.

    Also use some basic common sense. PayPal is going to reverse course on a term of service that most likely wouldn't even pass the most basic legal scrutiny and would generate the most obvious backslash because of some angry tweets? Like they were shocked that this would be discovered by the Twitter hounds?

    Dude use basic common sense man.

    Ive been gone since February and haven't checked here once but there is no doubt you have been destroying these guys all summer.

    It is funny/pathetic to see a somewhat stable person go right wing , immigrate to Florida and bring their outside hate.

    It happens but you hate to see it. My favorite is once they get here try to tell us what's up. You don't see me in Germany trying to give beer advice in a pretentious loud way.

    I'm always respectful of culture and beliefs when I go to europe/ asia etc.

    'but but ugly americans'

    haha ok sure.

    Keep up the good work and props

    Part of me believes it's all fake with him.

    He happens to be closely associated with every hot bottom right wing topic. He first advocated for a decade about the evils of Islam and Muslim immigration as a German because this was post 9/11 Syrian refugee crisis era where anti-muslim rhetoric was the hot button issue in right wing media and Germany was the epicenter of that topic. Now it's "woke" agenda and moved to the state with the most prominent "anti-woke" culture warrior politician.he probably doesn't live in Florida. It's such a weird life.
