As someone who would describe themself as 'very woke', I try not to worry about players political leanings because 99% of the time you assume you'll not like what you'd find, and when there are good ones they have to be the ****ing captain of Freo ffs.

Also been a great few weeks to be someone who is LGBT and previously had their favourite non Eagle be Izak Rankine, I can assure you of that.

Favourite non-Eagle?

Utter woke nonsense
 
In the end he's just a bloke, just coz he plays for the team we follow doesn’t make him a good bloke. I'd be pretty confident that most Eagles and footy players are pretty dickish, after all they chase a ball for a living - it's unlikely you're going to get anything hugely intelligent from a lot of them. It's like thinking all Eagles fans are mates - I've met as many dickhead Eagles supporters as I have any other club.

I try to separate the art from the artist as much as is morally (dunno if that's the correct term) possible. Getting harder and harder to these days though.

One post triggers the tolerant ones off like clockwork.

Well that's disappointing. Yeo's mind is more cooked than his body.

The initial X post was fine, the re-Xing Piers Morgan and arguing context was probably where he had stopped before.

Yet who are the ones calling him a cooker, a disappointment, a bad bloke etc?
Who called him a "bad bloke"?

Sounds like you've gone full Sharps to me.
 
Somebody explain the paradox of tolerance to this dipsh!t, pronto.

Yeah, the alt-right love to use terms like "intolerant left" when anyone who is normally tolerant says that someone like Kirk is a s**tstain on society. But you only have to slightly change what tolerance is to explain this. If you - like Kirk - are intolerant of people for who they are, then you lose the protection of tolerance yourself.

The far-right are usually the intolerant ones - they hate people based on sexuality, or race, or religion - but the left don't hate you for those things - they hate you for your intolerance.

My social contract must have been lost in the mail… can someone send me one so I can review it?

I haven’t gone far down the Charlie Kirk rabbit hole, infact never knew anything about what he did, but since his death and video clips have popped up he seemed like someone who was prepared to stick to his views and speak to anyone about there’s who wanted to talk to him. He also seemed to have valid points of view about most subjects. That’s what discussion and debate is about. Because you don’t like what he says doesn’t make him anything but someone with an opposing view.

That's one side of the coin, I suppose

Absolute tumbleweeds over this story by certain people, but not surprised. Killer was basically Kirk with a gun:

Boelter preached more than once in a church in the DRC, speaking against abortion rights and transgender people.

Also, there was a school shooting the same day as Kirk was killed. More tumbleweeds. But hey, lets cancel South Park, because that's the wrong kind of free speech!

Trump and his goons are the biggest snowflakes.
