Hulk Hogan continues to comment on the controversy over his racist comments in 2006. Hogan has mostly been re-tweeting messages of support from African American fans, and also wrote the following (sic):
Unless u went through this,true loyality and love has a different meaning,it makes u want to live and not die,4those that never left me I am Forever grateful and love u with all my heart life,only love 4u. HH
For those that left me and didn’t stand by my side,u will see and I will prove,who i really am and u will also understand my love for u 0LHH
However in re-tweeting messages stating that he isn’t a racist, he also re-tweeted the message below equating Hogan using the “N” word to describe how he’s a racist to President Obama using the term on Marc Maron’s podcast last month when discussing how race relations have changed in the United States:
Bi-racial President Obama uses N word, is applauded and keeps his job. @HulkHogan uses N word, is vilified and loses his job.
Below are Obama’s comments from Marc Maron’s podcast last month where he used the term:
“Racism, we are not cured of it. And it’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say n*gger in public. That’s not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It’s not just a matter of overt discrimination. Societies don’t, overnight, completely erase everything that happened 200 to 300 years prior.”
Below are Hogan’s comments, via The National Enquirer:
“She [Brooke] is making some real bad decisions now. My daughter Brooke jumped sides on me. I spent $2-3 million on her music career, I’ve done everything like a jackass for her… The one option Brooke had, Brooke’s career besides me, is [to] sell beach records.
“I don’t know if Brooke was f*cking the black guy’s son. I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f*cking n*ggers. But then when it comes to nice people and sh*t, and whatever… I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f*ck some n*gger, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n*gger worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player!
“I guess we’re all a little racist. F*cking n*gger.”
It should be noted that Hogan was never “vilified” for using the term in 2012 when discussing the infamous promo that Booker T cut on him in WCW during an interview with Whoo Kid on Shade 45.
