Now liberals are equating UFC with porn and lynching. God, they ruin everything.
They’ve gone completely off the rails. These people hate men. They hate women who like men. They hate patriotism, marriage, babies, traditional entertainment, and anything that looks like unapologetic joy. Except Joy Reid’s version of it, maybe. And did I mention they loathe men? This is where the Democratic Party stands in 2026: proving every single day that there’s no crawling back to sanity.
They’re not moderating. They’re not reflecting. They’re doubling down on the sneering, joyless, elitist nonsense that already cost them working-class voters by the truckload.
Take the recent White House UFC event on the South Lawn. Conservative writer Marc Thiessen praised it as Trump opening the doors to regular Americans — the kind who enjoy motocross rallies and monster truck shows. New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg responded by sneering that if you’re okay with that, you’re an elitist snob in reverse. Then she went nuclear: “Like Ultimate Fighting, porn is extremely popular, but I somehow doubt Thiessen would defend a Democratic president who invited a bunch of OnlyFans creators to the Oval Office while he was losing a war.”
Wild comparison. Is she on Hunter Biden’s crack? But somehow it got worse.
On Jim Acosta’s show, historian Heather Cox Richardson — the same one who treats every Republican breath as a constitutional crisis — actually said this with a straight face: “It’s not really a stretch to say that the same impulse that created the UFC fight on the White House lawn is the impulse that really pushed lynching in the late 19th century.”
Lynching! And Perma-victim-Acosta just hmmed in agreement, like she’d dropped profound historical wisdom instead of a brain-melting false equivalence.
UFC fights equal lynching. UFC fights equal porn. Motocross rallies equal baskets of deplorables. Got it. By this logic, anything popular with normal Americans is automatically suspect or sinister.
They despise us. Not in the polite “we disagree on policy” way. The Left genuinely believes all Republicans are flannel-wearing hillbillies who enjoy combat sports, big trucks, and rowdy crowds, and that we’re the moral and cultural scum of the earth.
They would rather die than be caught enjoying the same things the rest of the country finds entertaining.
Motocross rallies are awesome. So are monster trucks. UFC is about as American as it gets — a nation born from fighters, revolutionaries, risk-takers, now celebrating disciplined, high-level athletic competition in a ring. Neither has a damn thing to do with lynching or porn. One is a consensual sport between trained professionals. The other was a racist mob murder. (Smells like the abortion movement in America if you ask me.)
Goldberg should sit this one out. The party lecturing America about sexual liberation has produced exactly what you’d expect. Gallup data shows Republicans are dramatically more likely to be married than Democrats, especially in prime family-forming years. The gap has widened over decades as Democrats have embraced lifestyles that de-emphasize marriage and family formation. Institute for Family Studies research consistently finds that conservatives and Republicans have higher fertility rates and are far more likely to have children. Liberal women, by contrast, show markedly lower completed fertility and higher rates of childlessness.
This isn’t random. It tracks with broader attitudes. Liberals have long led the charge on “sex-positive” culture that celebrates casual sex, delayed or rejected marriage, and the normalization of platforms like OnlyFans. Democrats poll more favorably toward expansive views on sexual liberation and non-traditional arrangements. The party that claims to champion “joy” and “inclusion” has produced a demographic reality of more single adults, lower marriage rates, and fewer babies — while sneering at the people who still value the opposite.
That’s why Democrats keep bleeding support. They’re hemorrhaging non-college voters, men, and anyone who doesn’t want to be lectured about their entertainment choices or family decisions. The party that once claimed the lunch-bucket crowd now looks down its nose at them from coastal enclaves.
When Trump leaves office after his third term, they’ll have nothing left but the same tired hatred of the next guy. No positive vision. Just more pearl-clutching at monster trucks and cage fights and happiness.
Meanwhile, UFC is thriving. It’s one of the fastest-growing sports globally, with massive viewership, huge revenue, and broad appeal — especially among young men who need exactly the discipline, fitness, and male camaraderie it provides. Training in martial arts builds confidence, respect, and resilience. Plenty of guys who were drifting have found purpose in the gym and the cage. It’s popular across every demographic the Left pretends to speak for.
Of course they would hate it.
If liberals could drop the snobby nonsense for five minutes, they might notice that millions of normal Americans — including plenty who aren’t hardcore conservatives — enjoy UFC precisely because it’s raw, competitive, and unfiltered. It celebrates toughness and skill instead of fragility and grievance. But they can’t. They’re too far gone. They represent an increasingly angry, single, low-fertility, joy-allergic class that thinks the height of sophistication is comparing a sporting event to historical atrocities.
New York Times. Heather Cox Richardson. Jim Acosta. You suck at this. You don’t understand the country you claim to analyze. You don’t even like it. And every time you open your mouths to equate cage fighting with lynching or porn, you just remind the rest of us why normal people tuned you out years ago.
America was built by fighters
