Wonder if Gosh is gonna have a go defending the psg fourth official next.

My dad just told me. Terrible, terrible news.

Three heroes in World Cups have now passed away in the last 2 weeks. Diego Maradona, Papa Boupa Diop and now Paolo Rossi.

Possible implications for Barcelona? Similar to what happened to Arsenal in China over Ozil?

I wonder how this guy feels right now since he's their manager now.

The only thing painful about this conversation is your inability to digest the text in front of you.

Taking a knee is still a widely recognised action to show support for Black Lives Matter and it was first adopted in the Premier League for that purpose, so I understand why people continue to boo it. The fact the Premier League have adopted their own campaign to remove themselves from BLM probably says all you need to know about the organisation that you support.

They’re taking a knee for the Black Lives Matter movement against racism. Many organisations have been set up to drive the movement but no particular org speaks for the whole movement.

RWNJs insist it’s about Marxism and that’s just standard political bs of pretending the thing you don’t like is something you have an excuse to oppose. “Oh they’re commies and out to destroy the country”. What you really oppose however is equality and social justice. You just can’t admit it.

Do you consider the Premier League a right wing competition that opposes social progression? They dropped Black Lives Matter, so they must’ve had some issue with it too, right? Does that make them opposed to social justice/equality as well or have you only singled me out? Because my line of thinking is commensurate with theirs. I think you find yourself in quite the predicament here, because your bullsh*t reasoning could be applied to the Premier League as well. So tell me, why do you follow, support and endorse a sporting competition that, by using your logic, opposes social justice and equality?

Have Millwall been the only club to boo the fight against racism?

I think Colchester United in League 2 did as well

It's kind of cute that once Loons and I pointed out that they'd dropped BLM you latched onto it. Please in future do your own research and understand the argument you're making ahead of time. It's tiresome to have to provide talking points for you.

Linking their fight against racism to a different movement or slogan has very little to do - if anything - with a disassociation with BLM and everything to do with not giving racists such as yourself an out when opposing equality.

Back for more? You really are a sucker for punishment.

I know you’re trying desperately hard to remain relevant, but you didn’t point out anything, little one. I suggest you read the thread in its entirety then come back to me. The last time you “researched” something, you posted a link which completely contradicted whatever dumb point you were trying to make and you made a complete c*** of yourself. And here you are again having not learned a thing. There’s actually a statement from the Premier League which explains why they ditched BLM. You might want to read that as well.

 

[Solska]

Yes

Why don’t you and all the other pro BLM people in this thread boycott the sport then? I’m guessing it’s because the inconvenience outweighs the cause? Such a moral dilemma you petals find yourselves in.

I really do feel quite sorry for you.

You really have comprehension issues. The PL is not opposed at all to the BLM movement but has concern with some organisations attaching themselves to the movement for own political purposes.

It’s a little bit gutless of them so they have gone with No room for racism. Yet they give a slap over the wrist to Leeds keeper Kiko Casilla for his racist comments to opp player. My club even made him captain for a game. So the game has a lot to learn as well. There’s hope though for the league though not much for you it seems.

Here’s some advice. Read this thread, find the part where I said I have an issue with players taking a knee for BLM, find my reason for having said issue with it, then read your post again. There’s literally a post in this thread where I say I support BLM the message, but do not support the political affiliation, which is what the Premier League say in their statement (unless of course you’re splitting hairs).

You and SM both know my standpoint, but you’re not after a genuine discussion. You are looking for an opportunity to trigger your outrage because you require constant moral reassurance. You get pleasure from being outraged, because it temporarily feeds your ego and covers your insecurities and inadequacies.

This started with you defending racists who claimed they were booing BLM and then you learned that the taking the knee wasn't associated with BLM and somehow took that as affirmation of your stance (even though it was the complete opposite).

Being told we like to argue to cover insecurities by a guy who is onto his tenth account is laughable.

By the way bringing up the vaccine discussion probably wasn't the right move given what's currently being rolled out in the UK.

Alright I think this race has run its course. I can feel the tide turning from discussion more towards getting personal.
