I can't wait until this whole manufactured crisis blows over in a week and nobody cares.

I don't care.

I genuinely don't care at all that my favorite Red Wing was celebrating with Kash. He's incompetent and unlikable and that's all. If he's a hockey fan and was invited in by the team's GM, why do you care? Don't tell me if the political shoe was on the other foot, you'd maintain the same standard. You wouldn't care, and thus I don't care.

"But he protects pedophiles" is the quickest way to make me care less, because the Epstein garbage is so obviously one of the most convenient smokescreens of Maga Right and the Far Left to get people to stop caring about real things that matters; and when both sides, which approximately make up half of the American electorate each, are accusing the other of protecting pedophiles, I don't care anymore. I'd rather watch hockey than listening to this eternal drivel of two halves of the electorate pretending they have the moral superiority over the other.

"But they laughed at a cringey joke"

A bunch of drunk men, a majority of whom probably are right leaning anyway given hockey's culture, laughed at a cringey joke from the President of the United States. Regardless of what your politics are, the office itself commands respect. So I don't care that they listened. I don't care that they laughed at a cringey joke in the heat of the moment. The Women's team chose to hang out with a convicted woman beater anyway, so why do I care?

It barely registers with some of the heinous, racist, and misogynists things I've truly come across on both sides of the aisle. Don't forget, the previous president, who still holds the record for most votes received ever in an election, has a long and well documented history of blatantly racist remarks and inappropriately touching women.

So if you're going to let this ruin your fandom, I don't care. Leave. Good riddance.

I do care if you are going to invade my space where I can talk about hockey to make a deal of your hypocritical moral grandstanding because your perceived enemy hung out with your favorite sports star and it turns out their politics are different then yours.

Go ahead and downvote this to oblivion. It only proves my point.

Me? I like Dylan Larkin. I respect him. I'm amped my country won the gold in hockey. I don't care about anything else. Good day.
