Not eating a candy bar because some guy that Mars 100 percent doesnt even know said some offensive stuff years ago is ridiculous and funny at the same time. Good lord.

Mars (Which makes Snickers) is a major sponsor for WWE. They're partly the reason Fabulous Moolah got her name removed from the WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal. If a major sponsor wants something to change, it's going to change.

What the is wrong with 2019s society It all started several years ago, when the First Snowflakes got offended that John Cena was allowed to win the belt despite wrestling in jean shorts and sneakers. After that, society just tried to find more ridiculous things to cry about. They still haven’t beaten that one, but they’re getting close. If only someone had written to Mars back in 2005, all our champions would’ve worn trunks and tights.

I just want to say, if you actually wrote to Mars, or the person that did is reading this, you are a POS. This takes SJW up a level. Did Lars say horrible things? Sure. But again, people take on online gimmicks. I’m not defending his words, but at the same time, to go after his employment like that seems like a personal action.

Some pretty crazy stuff he has shared his thoughts on. We have something happening here in Australia that is somewhat related. A professional Rugby Union player is currently fighting to keep his million $ contract because of twitter posts relating to his religious beliefs and hell awaiting gay people (among others).
Not sure this is going to end well for WWE, but then again - this is a country that is “supporting a revolution” (except in Saudi Arabia). It’s all about the money at the end of the day.
My personal thoughts are torn. I think it is important that all people are allowed to put their view forward, however - we must understand that by doing so, we can expect others to hold you accountable for those views. And it will often be perceived as bad if they arent shared by the majority. Not saying it right, not saying it’s wrong - but it is the world we live in
