Conor McGregor is Irish.

Though I suppose I'm unaware if the president of Ireland is a rapist or not.

I doubt it.

They're talking about him being on an American television show. He's a celebrity in the eyes of Americans.

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

I was being tongue-in-cheek. He’s not only popular in the US.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Who is McGregor? Never heard of him.

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He’s a professional fighter, asshole, and violent rapist. I believe he fights for UFC.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah, that's why. I'm blissfully unaware of all that "entertainment".

Yeah apparently he's been platformed for weeks now on UFC and other sports channels. The outrage only started when he did this interview with Fallon.

Not a single peep about this rapist until then. All those sports channels and UFC are fully embracing this piece of shit rapist.
