            I think pro wrestling is fundamentally about investing in the characters’ struggles and stories. Like WWE is some bonkers postmodern hellscape now, but there’s still something there

            It may seem like sweaty dudes slapping and aggressively hugging but when you look at the stories they tell, it's very proletarian.

            Also outside of leftist stuff it's insanely fun because it's a sport built almost entirely around audience participation.
