Ah, I see. You are a bigot with a halo, for jumping on to every passing bandwagon which is dividing every football club in the land (see any fans forum you like) but I am a bad bigot for pointing out the division it is causing and how ineffectual it will be?
As the issue of racial equality has been relevant for at least fifty years I would hardly describe it as some passing bandwagon,quite indicative of your true feelings is that is how you perceive it.

You and I know he is most likely a racist. He just won’t admit it so looks for other ways to ‘dog whistle’ his thoughts. The ‘it causes division’ argument is the most laughable. It causes division because certain people don’t like the fact players are making an anti-racist gesture. To disguise it they then invent reasons like ‘those well paid footballers are supporting a Marxist organisation’. Or ‘It’s political’ - durrr! My favourite is ‘they’re trained Marxists’. Like you can go to a special school where you learn about dialectics and how to conduct an ideologically pure analysis of the offside trap.

My true feelings, for the umpteenth time, is that I abhor racism. I am arguing that the bandwagon of the BLM movement (being associated with a political organisation with views wildly different to mainstream views) will harm the cause of anti-racism movements because it has caused friction and division at all clubs. I also argue that taking the knee is not going to make a jot of difference.

You cannot call somebody racist with no evidence at all. Just your hunch they might be racist, a typical lefty stunt anyone who has a different opinion to you is a racist.

It is indeed a sad old world where any dissent from the approved line is met with a barrage of accusations, all completely unfounded. It is however important to keep having discussions on all manner of things regardless of how some people react. In this case, the argument is whether taking the knee is proving more divisive than helpful in the fight against racism.

They'd rather live in a society where 1 per cent of the population own 90 per cent of the wealth. Capitalism rules and it absolutely doesn't mean that those wealthy people probably made a good chunk of their money by exploiting very poor foreign nationals. Honest.
