    It is profitable for the UFC to have such a person rather than not.

    Most of the time the answer is money.

    To have people pay $$$ to watch his ass get beat.

    What makes you think the UFC cares about morals?

    If they kicked him out, they’d face retaliation from the US government and either have to let him back in or be shut down by executive order.

    Electing authoritarian Nazis has consequences.

    We don’t have to stop there. What about getting cozy with the Tate brothers.

    It’s acceptable because people accept it. Fuck the UFC. I’m done.

    Because apparently the higher ups think it’s fine. White wrote a stern worded letter and that was it. Make of that what you will.
