Absolutely disgusting tweet by the owner of the Florida Panthers. Here is more context.
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.
The metre pole detail is just mmm! chefβs kiss
For the Americans 10 meters is roughly 37 Subway "footlongs".
Now I'm thinking about companies using footlongs to pull off shrinkflation.
Going to go rent a 14 footlong truck from uhaul.
Well, with America's current lack of regulation? I'd expect to see that soon! Or companies charging more for the actual spec.
Annnnnd just like that I care about the Leafs in the playoffs, now. I really hope we can make that man sadder.
Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news...
Totally predicable for the past 60 years, news?
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.
Palestinians
Read this as panthers. Was confused how puma concolor was semitic for a few beats.
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.
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.
Yeah that's not gonna happen. It's gonna be a few decades of fascism and then back to neoliberals.
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.
Don't be ludicrous, the climate will collapse before the neoliberals rebuild their power structures.
Archive it all.
Do they add meth to the water supply in Florida? Yikes.
Gotta replace the fluoride with something.
No flouride in Florida?
Maybe too much fluoride, that's why they're so developmentally challenged over there.
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.
Maybe itβs Viking blood in me or something, but I really want this man afraid to show his face in my countryβ¦
What an ass.
Is there more context for this?
Rich people are often cunts.
Often is a weird way of spelling always
The only recent news I'm aware of where the words Israel and Toronto are relevant is university of Toronto faculty voting to divest from Israel, but something tells me this guy isn't one to keep up with news from academia.
Real question. Even though I'm certain it's just projection. Where did the anti semite thing come from?
OP added a link above. Here's a screenshot of the start of it on X.
Probably the post/comment he replied to that upset him.
We need to somehow get it into Donald's head that Israel should be the 51st state.
when bigotry is your entire identity. hideous.
That's not the owner of the Panthers according to Wikipedia, but absolutely disgusting nonetheless.
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.
And the NHL is coming down on him, and his account is now deleted lol
I had to check, lmao you're right

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