Absolutely disgusting tweet by the owner of the Florida Panthers. Here is more context.

My only regret in this ordeal, is that one of these two organizations has to win.

... and I unironically picked FLA last year to win it all after the first round.

Ive heard that trump is really pissed at Israel for breaking peace now. Real falling out with Netaniahu.

To the point he now signed peace with houthis just for US and left them to attack Israeli ships.

And that Hamas is now working direct with US and Trump will recognize Palestine as independent state. All because Israel violated peace agreement Trump brokered and now wants to take over the rest of the Palestine

Additional context: "He's said to be at the heart of a stolen $400m pension fund."

This shit is why y'all need to stop caring what fascists tweet and pay more attention to what they do.

[–] Angry_Autist@lemmy.world 49 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Imagine being that rich and still tweeting like a 14 year old CoD player

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 points 17 minutes ago

My imagination hurts now

That was work

It's nice that FloridaMan had time to reveal his inner racist. Maybe he can understand why Canada wouldn't touch his state with a 10 metre pole.

[–] ElJefe@lemm.ee 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The metre pole detail is just mmm! chef’s kiss

[–] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

That’s a damn long pole. Giggity

[–] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

For the Americans 10 meters is roughly 37 Subway "footlongs".

Do they add meth to the water supply in Florida? Yikes.

[–] zero_spelled_with_an_ecks@programming.dev 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Gotta replace the fluoride with something.

In my 20s I was very skeptical of fluoride in the water supply(even then conspiracy theories were prevelant), 30 yrs later, I think it has MORE than proven its efficacy

Yep, it's on the CDC's top ten public health success list. I moved to a different town in my 20s that only started adding fluoride ten years prior. A dental hygienist recently told me she could tell I wasn't originally from the area because my teeth were too good for someone my age that grew up here.

[–] CobraChicken3000@lemmy.ca 4 points 23 hours ago

Maybe too much fluoride, that's why they're so developmentally challenged over there.

Yeah, the Palestinians are Semites. If anyone is antisemitic, it's the Zionist colonists who came from Europe. People don't have beef with Judaism or Israel in this case. They have a beef with genocidal Zionists.

[–] roguetrick@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Palestinians

Read this as panthers. Was confused how puma concolor was semitic for a few beats.

[–] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 68 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Annnnnd just like that I care about the Leafs in the playoffs, now. I really hope we can make that man sadder.

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news...

[–] nik282000@lemmy.ca 8 points 19 hours ago

Totally predicable for the past 60 years, news?

Someone tell him to stop swimming in the water when Redtide is happening

[–] Pnut@lemm.ee 11 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Real question. Even though I'm certain it's just projection. Where did the anti semite thing come from?

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 12 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

OP added a link above. Here's a screenshot of the start of it on X.

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 3 points 22 hours ago

Probably the post/comment he replied to that upset him.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 42 points 1 day ago (2 children)

When this whole fucking thing backfires and we end up with a communist revolution, there's going to be a lot of people in a real big hurry to delete their xitter accounts.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 38 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yeah that's not gonna happen. It's gonna be a few decades of fascism and then back to neoliberals.

Don't be ludicrous, the climate will collapse before the neoliberals rebuild their power structures.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 31 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I mean, a guy can cope, okay?

We're not going to get that far, though. We've got a poly ecological crisis happening right now between insect extinction, microplastics in brain tissue and inhibiting photosynthesis, and climate change, and the right has decided (thanks to some generous donations) that long term growth is woke, we need maximum profits right up until everyone is dead. We're just gonna plug our ears and yell "la la la can't hear you" while the lights flicker out one by one, and then all at once.

We need to somehow get it into Donald's head that Israel should be the 51st state.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Well he already wants to turn it into a resort.

Maybe it’s Viking blood in me or something, but I really want this man afraid to show his face in my country…

[–] jhymesba@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

What an ass.

[–] johnefrancis@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Is there more context for this?

[–] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Rich people are often cunts.

[–] oxysis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 1 day ago

Often is a weird way of spelling always

Floridaman moment

That's not the owner of the Panthers according to Wikipedia, but absolutely disgusting nonetheless.

[–] Jackcooper@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

And the NHL is coming down on him, and his account is now deleted lol

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago

This is the Florida Panthers Vice Chairman, Partner and Alternate Governor, Doug Cifu, talking shit to a Maple Leafs fan last night.

He's part of the board of the company that owns it.
