hardly. I've raised it and other likeminded issues on here for quite some time.

The treatment of Palestinians, women in the workplace and Chinese corruption basically ****ing over multiple generations who are not in a position to escape it in most cases.
 
Are human rights not important to you?

His standard response is to skirt the issue. At the end of the day Sheikh Mansour has made billions off the back of slavery and that money has been plunged into Man City so their fans should be concerned and they should be wanting to end slavery in Abu Dhabi.
 
Christ on a bike what the **** did I just read?

"Oh people are talking about moral things, we must be winning again", "you don't really care about the issues you're only doing it for the gotcha" is literally Trump supporters logic

Let me know when we can talk about things that matter at a time, place and feng sui of moomba's choosing
 
I think Cooldude has got a problem with Trump supporters. Just a hunch

Pretty sure human rights matter whether you're first or last on the table, but anyhow...

Just waiting for moomba to do his inconsistent moral high horse riding about Suarez or UEFA or some other footballer than completely ignore bigger issues
 
Pretty sure most normal people do.
You judge people on which way they vote?

My point was CD makes a reference on Trump supporters every other post. It's funny that's all

Generally people vote in line with their principles, so yeah I do.

Ronaldo is a much bigger Real Madrid than Zidane, he will have no chance if he challenges CR7.

Strange comparison to make. A footballer being criticised for his actions on the pitch is pretty relevant to a football board I would think.

A club being criticised for their actions - fair game.

A country being criticised for human rights abuses I would have thought more suited to politics or society boards.

I wonder if anyone has felt so strongly about the issue to discuss it on there. Or do they see it as a particular football problem?

Football fans have a moral obligation to make sure that those who run their clubs are doing the right thing. I wouldn't be too comfortable with the fact that Sheikh Mansour has made billions of the back of slave labour and nothing is being done to address the issue. If you're happy to accept money from the Sheikh you've surely got to question how it was generated.

Yeah but come on, you know the way the world works. Does the west hold the Saudies or Chinese to account when they want their cheap oil or foreign investment? We can't therefore then turn on City when the whole system is immoral from top to bottom

Good point.
 
im impressed this faux pas outrage lasted longer than the chinese investors outrage.
Haha - I'm not entirely sure it's just fake outrage here. I get what people are saying and reckon they are justified questioning it.

usual wum posters doing they're usual stuff. basically any post to do with the club is a whinge of some sort.

Going back on this, wasn't we saying the other day that opinions are subjective, and therefore it's not ok to judge people on them? If you believe political persuasions are formed on opinions or principles, then why do you feel it's ok to judge people by them? Isn't this being somewhat hypocritical of you after lecturing me in the off topic thread?
