So basically:
Bad Bunny did a campaign against PR stupid tax laws that benefits rich idiots from overseas.
Said Rich Idiot from overseas Logan Paul uses said stupid tax law so he started a smear campaign against Bad Bunny

A Wrestlemania main event over Puerto Rican tax laws is a different type of storyline.

I can see why bad bunny is popular with a lot of the friends from PR. He's basically saying the stuff they've been telling me about what goes on in the island out loud.

Well, he's still doing better than his little brother. At least he's not going to be in the middle of a $100 million defamation suit.

He has always used his platform to advocate for change on the island and address many serious issues going on; from the displacement of the people from there due to these tax laws as well as addressing the rampant homophobia and transphobia in reggaetón and the huge problem of violence against women on the island. As a Puerto Rican I've always admired him for that. Anyway Logan Paul is a dickhead.

Logan, along with many other foreigners, take advantage of Act 22, a law put in place to attract foreign companies to come into the island and establish branches there and receive tax exceptions if they create jobs to the locals. It doesn't help things that Logan lives in Dorado Beach, one of the richest neighborhoods in the island, and essentially gets to do whatever he wants within the laws of Puerto Rico, even benefiting from tax laws as long as he employs a few locals as a way to justify himself in front of the law, at a time when Puerto Ricans feel like foreigners are coming over and kicking them out of their homes so they can pay less taxes and bring their buddies over while tanking the value of the terrain they have so they can set the market value... so yeah... Logan should shut up about this. Bad Bunny fans don't mess around. And considering Bad Bunny turned one of his music videos into a 20 minute report on how PR's main power company is f***ing over the island, not wise to go after Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny stopping live performances so he can address how LUMA's work in Puerto Rico is lacking and that they should leave the country shows consistency in his gripe towards local issues. Logan Paul, on the other hand, you don't hear much about him on a local stage unless it's people talking how foreigners are "taking over our island".

If there's one positive to come from this, it's that I learned Bad Bunny is a good dude.

I still don't know how the Paul brothers aren't in jail yet. After going through the Coffeezilla videos in the Dink Doink thread they're truly even more repulsive then I thought and that's saying something!

I mean, he literally has bad as part of his name. Doesn’t that mean he’s kinda allowed to do this sort of stuff?

Couldn't remember who it was, John Oliver spoke about it a couple weeks ago and that's how I knew about it, he mentioned Bunny stopping concerts to shit on them and the video where it turns into a 20 minute report on the shit that LUMA is pulling.

Then followers of the New Progressive Party, the party in power now, are giving Logan a pass since he has been going to damaged neighborhoods handing over supplies while they critique Bad Bunny because "if Bad Bunny was so good, why isn't he helping out?" after he was part of the movement that outsed former governor Ricardo Rossellò. Meltzer mentioned part of this as "not everyone in Latin America is a fan of Bad Bunny because he's seen as vulgar" back on the build to his WrestleMania match.

"Paul goes After Bunny for Exploitation" would a great headline to show to someone not familiar with either of them.

WWE knew who Logan Paul was before they signed him, right? Did they? Bueller?

Man, for a guy who has no real claims to fame as someone who's done anything for anybody, Logan Paul seems to be trying awfully hard to come off as the saint of accountability.
