It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Tyson has Mao and Che Guevara tattoo'd on his body
Ali had a few things to say:
Ali was on NSA watchlists and actively spied on for his anti-vietnam stuff too.
The left doesn't talk about Tyson because of the rape though, obviously. But fighting sports never used to be dominated by the far right like today.
Muhammad Ali? I see? Tyson's strikes me more as an edgelord, considering he decided to endorse Trump tho...
Trump has personally helped Tyson and they're "friends" so I think he's compromised in that regard. I don't think his support back in the day was pretend or just edge though.
I think like a lot of boomers he's just aged and reached a point where he just chooses comfort over anything that might resemble struggle. Some of this misjudgement might also be coming from experiences when he was younger too, given that he says he's known him in personal capacity since he was 19 or 20 years old.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
