i mean, i do complain about work a lot but if I was being as handsomely paid as he is I’d at least have the common sense to keep my whining offline. Men are weak.

FFS, people are allowed to complain about aspects of their job they don't like. People want to pull out the pitchforks for every fucking thing and it's made the Internet a lot less fun.

people have no sense of nuance anymore it’s so boring

the backlash for minor complaints like lebron’s is the same as like, committing literal crimes

I mean...Lebron's done it for 20 years, 40 away games a year (not including pre-season or the playoffs). I don't think fans are pulling out pitchforks at all, they're just pointing out what an absurd complaint it is from someone who's done the same thing literally a thousand times before. And a lot of jokes about how this is such a middle aged complaint.

A lot of complaining today.
