The push for the infantilization of women to not only be seen as normal, but desired because the world is oh so stressful and hard so just let your man take control of you and your life, is propaganda. Life is being made difficult and hard on purpose. The rise of incel misogyny culture is on purpose. The rise of trad wife infantilization of women is also on purpose. The rise of divinity feminine and masculine, be in your femininity blah blah blah, is also on purpose.

It’s not cute or whimsical. It’s not kink. It’s alt-right propaganda.

- I have seen the “oh, he is getting payback!” Posts. Ok, lets asume he is destroying them. And for what? Anaheim is in the West! There is zero divisional gain here. If the ducks don’t match, Philly just traded away 4 unprotected first round picks to pay a 21 year old 20% of their cap space, without a path to build actual depth. I mean, I could be wrong, but they’re not building a cup contender.

- If they match, he won nothing because he will also suffer from this wage inflation

But the real tragedy here isn't even Philly’s future. It's what this does to everyone else:

- Habs have their entire young core locked down long term on incredibly team friendly deals. They built a healthy locker room where no one is bigger than the rest. But now? Montreal needs a reliable 2C, and that player's agent is going to point at Carlsson's contract and demand double what Demidov makes. It’s a joke.

- And don’t even get me started on the San Jose Sharks. Now, thanks to Philly inflating the market like a tech bubble, Celebrini’s agent is going to walk into negotiations in a couple of years demanding at least $24M AAV, which will be a problem for that GM when Smith, Misa or Askarov have to renegotiate too. That nurse contract is not looking so hot now.

How will teams build depth?

- Briere’s move demolished the NHL middle class.

- From now on, you’ll have 3 or 4 mega rich stars swallowing the entire cap, and the rest of the lineup will have to be filled with rookies on ELCs or desperate veterans playing for league minimum.

- Those gritty, $3M bottom six players who actually win you Stanley Cups? Gone.
