Adrian Wojnarowski on threads: Stand up to fascism
Source: threads
Glad to see Woj on the right side of history
Jesus Christ how I miss Woj with every beat of my heart
He’s the GM of a very bad St. Bonaventure team right now
Always been like this, though, the reason he got suspended from ESPN a few years back (telling Josh Hawley to fuck himself” was also awesome
Can’t imagine it’s easy to get talent to come to Olean.
Very true. They do have some good players, things have just gone south in conference. Frank Mitchell will be playing for a really good program next year in all likelihood. Dude is a tank
The kid is mercenary. Already been on 3 teams in the last 3 years.
Really?
Why, all he did was report things than anyone else couldve reported.
Fuck you
Sent from my iPhone
why? Woj and Shams are just click getters. They just wanted to be first
He’s making a reference to when Woj sent that to Republican dickhead Josh Hawley
Oh. That’s awesome
He took the route that made the most money (like a lot of us eventually end of doing) but at one point he was a legitimately good sports journalist
But no one else did but woj and shams. Thats how they got popular. No one else did the job at the same rate they did
I think it’s cus most guys who report on things like this are usually team connected and more known at the local level and work for newspapers cus of working at ESPN Woj and shams have better direct connection to teams that aren’t local and obviously have a company that can send them anywhere whenever they really want to actually go and talk to someone from the warriors one day and then Boston the day after
Woj and Shams were both doing all the rumors and breaking news while working for Yahoo! years before they each went to ESPN. Most of the connections they had were independent of Woj’s early ESPN work afaik.
Bro…WHAT JOB? To be the first?? The news always leaks no matter what. All they do/did is literally race to be first. Dumb to paint it as some amazing thing…the daily breeze would report same shit a day later 20 years ago. Now news travels faster because of Twitter.
Exactly lol, people idolizing a twitter merchant
Seriously. Can’t believe my eyes.
being stuck with just shams is 1000x worse
And it was glorious
I have no beef with Shams but Woj was also a real writer and Shams is not. As a kid I read him as a columnist in my local NJ paper and he wrote the classic The Miracle of St. Anthony.
remember when Woj told that dumbass senator to go fuck himself?
“Fuck you. Sent from my iPhone”
[deleted]
He wanted them to have “back the blue” on their jerseys fuck that
I’d be absolutely seething if Josh Hawley scolded me about literally anything. That man has never said or done anything in good faith in his whole life. I’m not a CCP stan but I’m not going to listen to Hawley tell me how awful China is when he’s a huge ICE supporter.
Josh Hawley is a massive hypocrite himself. He doesn’t care about Hong Kong, he only cares that it’s against China and that the NBA and it’s predominantly black athletes were advocating for Black Lives Matter. Ask him to condemn Israel or the myriad of Republican donors that have massive connections to China like Elon. He won’t, actually he’s a massive supporter of both.
Except Hawley is a cunt. He sounds great when he’s taking on these companies until you look at everything he actually votes to pass. He’s a performative asshole, just as bad as the NBA
Because if you knew literally anything about Josh Hawley you know he’s an extremely dishonest shithead and telling him to go fuck himself is the single best answer to any question he asks.
Hope that helps!
Yeah it sure would be crazy if Hawley did all that and was actually in favor of fascism oh wait

Can you define fascism for the class and give specific examples of China having fascist policies? Btw, can you tell us what CCP stands for?
They have a business relationship with China, which isn’t particularly uncommon in the United States. Capitalism 101, protect the business.
While we shouldn’t excuse the NBA for prioritizing profits over people, we can also recognize what it is in an honest way. It’s not shilling to preserve a business relationship by keeping your mouth shut. Shilling is completely different.
You can accurately call it complicit. Just not shilling
yeah man such a fascist government. I bet the chinese people are suffering so much
You talking about Josh Hawley? Lol
Wild to say this when America is just executing people in the streets now
Google Hawley and read up. That’s why.
josh hawley is a cunt, lil bro
I don’t think you know what fascism is if you think china’s government is fascist
Josh Hawley could email me saying he’s giving me ten grand and the appropriate response would still be “fuck you”
CCP is morally superior to amerikkkan government in every conceivable way
You mean just like the US, except they’ve greatly increased the average quality of life while the US has greatly reduced theirs?
China has plenty of problems but you just gave a list of things the US is also struggling with lmao
Yeah USA just pays other countries to rape and torture our undesirables
CPC, but you are right.
Closer relationship to the military? The last thing the US needs is more militarism and warmongering.
The way the US Right uses Hong Kong is not in good faith. They don’t give a damn about the rights of people in Hong Kong. Bringing it up was a manipulation tactic, not out of genuine concern.
Because Josh Hawley would lose his mind if the NBA wrote free Palestine on their jerseys and he only use the Hong Kong issue because he was mad at the BLM movement
That’s why woj told him to go fuck himself
Woj >>>> Shams
Shams has no bitches
Woj can get any bitch he wants, but is happily married 🫡
shams would tweet that bin laden was a valuable trade asset if rich paul paid him enough to do it
woj forever my goat
Yeah because shams loves his job. Woj didn’t.
*loves money
Shams didn’t do it for. Money. Shams started in high school speaking to agents of role players on the bulls. It’s all in the variety article about him. Shams did this before he got money.
Bring a Shams burner is crazy.
No way you’re trying to justify this
Everyone knows Woj got game like no other
No ur wrong thx to Shams I learned that Lebron might possibly leave the Lakers next season, or retire, or resign with them!! Where wuz Woj?!?
Nah, Shams said the same thing, it’s just no one could decipher the thirteen dependent clauses involved.
You think he’d say this if he was still on ESPN?
He would, then ESPN would force him to apologize for it.
100% he would. He did tell Josh Hawley to fuck himself when he wrote to Woj suggesting the NBA wear back the blue unis during the bubble. I don’t see why this instance would be different
He literally told a US Senator to go fuck himself while at ESPN
Always.
You can’t have Woj without the W
Take away the W and all you have is OJ
Take away the WO and all you have is J
Take away the J and you got Ben Simmons
I’m snorting 😭
woj tells a senator fuck you in email for suggesting pro police and military jersey
Based Woj Bomb
It’s pretty simple
LeBron & Ant would never, remember that Nazi’s buy shoes too.
what a dumb comment lmao
Woj has always been legit. I loved when he told Josh Hawley to fuck off.
Imagine when trump dies if woj is the first to report
That would be a legendary moment for anyone that works in media but for Woj it would be his MJ Utah shot. The absolute cherry on top.
One last Woj bomb for the history books.
Mods leave this up
They definitely won’t lmao but I hope people see this
thank you for sharing.
Thanks, they deleted it for an hour or something but seem to have put it back up
Woj was goated for telling Josh Hawley to F off in 2020 and they made him apologize for it
Should have said “I am truly sorry that Josh Hawley is such a pussy”
Some of those that work forces…
Are the same that ignore every constitutional right you have, shoot you in the back, and then go home, take off their shirt, and reveal their aryan brotherhood tattoos.
Well… I mean, yeah, but I think they were looking for “are the same that burn crosses.”
Oh sorry, I was unfamiliar with how this worked.
Fuck you. I won’t do what you tell me.
Drop Woj Bombs, not…actual bombs
“You know what’s more destructive than a nuclear bomb? Words.”
drop woj bombs not minnesotan moms
Why does Woj have to be based? I hate St. Bonaventure with a passion. (I went to Duquesne)
Some beef is everlasting
That’s my goat
Fuck ICE
insert “I owe you an apology. I wasn’t really familiar with your game.” image
Good on you Woj and all the supporters here!! Its time now for us to all speak up and do whatever little we can!!!
One more Woj bomb
Isn’t threads banned from reddit?
Thought TweeterX was the banned one.
Twitter is banned, not its alternatives like Threads or Bluesky
X being banned but Bluesky is not is insane. Bluesky is like truth social just the opposite end of the spectrum. At least X is somewhat mixed.
It makes sense because Reddit is also like truth social but for the opposite end of the spectrum
Blue sky definitely left of left
Woj Bomb
Corpo Charania would never dare to have an original thought without his handlers consent
I actually know Woj for his politics not for basketball.
Check out his conversations with the late great Michael Brooks
We don’t have a choice.
Big fat Woj W, just like when he told that senator to go fuck himself. Woj obviously on the right side of history
Wow bomb
BASED WOJ
Good on him to speak out 👍 Btw where is Daryl Morey? He’s all shittalk on Hong Kong but hasn’t exerted a fart on what’s going on in the states
Good!
Threads has gotta be the most botted social media I’ve seen and it’s not even good botting like the fake OF accounts they don’t even go to the effort to set pfps
Hell yeah, brother.
The proper response.
L to every cynic here who thinks doing so is lame or something
W woj
Feels like Shams supports Nazis
“Fuck you”
Woj from these streets, he ain’t playin games.
Wake up people! you support Nazis or you don’t. It’s pretty damn simple.
You might not like the answer
Fuck you —- and that’s how I learned who Senator Hawley was
but has Lebron said anything
Stwand up to fwascism!
Look mom! I posted it!
Private profile
So brave.
You’re right, it is incredibly brave.
Lmao
Can we get content that’s actually basketball related again? This is ridiculous.
Boohoo
Wow, someone took the easiest position. So bold.
That’s a bad take. Visible names in the public eye taking a clear stand. In a very public way, unprompted is a) significant and useful b) risky enough that it signals strong conviction. If there was zero risk, you’d see a lot more celebrities sharing such messages publicly.
It’s taking the currently acceptable view. As brave as flying a gay pride flag in the streets in 2022 or wearing a mask in 2021. As brave as saying George Floyd did nothing wrong in summer of 2020.
Nobody is going to say, “well actually fascism is good”.
A lot of highly visible people aren’t saying anything, though. When someone does it stands out.
This take is fucking nonsense. Like actually meaningless gobbledygook.
People wore masks because they didn’t want to kill people who were immune compromised. George Floyd got murdered in cold blood, the reaction wasn’t that “oh no he didn’t deserve this because he was a perfect fucking Boy Scout” they’re saying nothing he did remotely justified his actual race motivated murder. And people are against ICE because mass deportation, murdering your own populace who disagree with you, and ruining children’s lives is pretty fucking terrible.
You said so much about the dumb shit you believe in this comment but you didn’t even have the fucking balls to actually take your stupid stance in an anonymous Reddit comment. Instead you say this.
So you taking an anti-ICE/Trump position?
