I drew a webcomic called Work Sucks in the early aughts. My writer wrote a joke that was not only racist, but was also about rape. I drew it without concern. At the time I thought "this is just a joke."
Basic gist was, office worker gets a new co-worker named Spencer. He assumes it’ll be a nerdy white dude, turns out it’s a big black dude (ha ha...racism). His speech bubbles were written in a graffiti font that was damn near illegible. The punchline was, the illegible font turned regular just as the dude said, "I should rape her ass."
Looking back now, I’m pretty ashamed of it. The whole damn comic was full of racism and sexism and rape jokes. I was in my late teens/early twenties. I’ve definitely grown since then, and I really gotta think Sammy has, too. At least I hope. Shit man, all these #SpeakingOut tweets are making me re-evaluate everything I’ve ever done in my life.

The only person he needs to apologize is to Sasha Banks I highly disagree. He needs to apologize to fans of his too given if he doesn't it gives the impression that his words are acceptable. A kid looking up to him and hearing that with nothing happening to him afterwards? Let alone this is in public. If he apologizes to her it needs to be done in public too. It was a trash thing to say and he needs to let it be known that he shouldn't have said that.

True, Sammy could learn from Matt.
Remember how much of a trainwreck Matt was in early 2010s, in his first TNA run?

But apologizes shouldn't be public display,especially when most of then are just to save face,it means nothing when it is a public apology.

You'd have a point if it was a private incident

Wonder what Khan will do about it. This is the same guy that publicly banned Linda Hogan from AEW shows over a racist comment. I'm not sure in what Universe Sammy's comment would be considered more acceptable.

Just gonna say f*** The Whole F'N show. That show's been an example of the absolute worst of the wrestling spectrum with a ton of shit just like this.
Also, FFS Sammy

MJF has been accused of making horrible comments to another worker too. Between these and the story Darby Allin told about his treatment of homeless people a lot of these newer guys sound like, at best, complete assholes. I think they are mistaking Darby with Darren Allen.

This is gross. But also not surprising coming from a 22 year old man. Men in their late teens to early 20's can be pretty disgusting in their entitlement. Like, this is the kind of shit you'd hear on an average public game on Xbox Live or PSN, especially a few years ago.
Sammy needs to apologize to Sasha about this if he hasn't already. But these sorts of "jokes" are also not an aberration. They're a symptom of the diseases of rape culture and toxic masculinity.

The dude aint no Saint and by his own admission they treated each other awfully.Not that the comments are okay at all but I assume there is a lot of anger from both sides

You know what, fine, that's fair. At least he owned up to it.

He just liked this tweet then deleted it a few minutes later when he was called out on it so something tells me he still doesn't realize what he's done wrong and why he even has to apologize.

I've fat fingered liked social media posts on my phone that I never would consciously do that with sometimes without even realizing it, so I'm not going to hold that against him.
