>>8794719I wonder who exactly is in Cornette's fanbase? Because his forte is talking about old southern wrasslin', but he's such a frothing outspoken liberal and so over-the-top hateful towards southerners and anybody even remotely conservative. That makes me imagine he's alienated and outraged the people who would be the most familiar with old southern wrasslin': old southerners, who tend to be conservative.
But then you have the hip modern liberals he so desperately tries to identify himself as and kowtow to, and they don't really want him either because he's an old Southern white man, meaning he can never really be one of them and that they will always look down on him as a dumb hick as well as problematic by virtue of his very existence. On top of that, he's supposedly did some racist shit decades ago and that's apparently unforgivable in 2023 no matter how many decades ago it was.
Modern American culture is so politically fucked that you have to declare what side your on, but Corny is in this strange no-mans-lands where he insults the people who want to hear him talk classic wrassling while also never being good enough for his "fellow" liberal.
So what type of person is listening to Cornette?
