Bit dramatic Woz


Maybe! That’s what 3 hrs sleep does to you 😉

I do think the MSM have a hold on things though and I’d expect a 2nd big wave in late autum of coronavirus

Seem to remember talk such as this being used when aids first broke into the scene, almost all heterosexual and homosexual were doomed, not even a topic any more, covid as a virus is new on the scene and will change and mutate into other forms as does flue and will become as flue held in check by jabs of vaccine annually.
GTFC fever however can never be totally cured.

GTFC fever however can never be totally cured.
.Think it stems from a need to belong to something   .Hence were social animals and humans have been part of groups since the time of the caveman.Indeed from what Ive seen on nature documentary's its belonging to a group that allowed us to survive as a species when climate change threatened the human race when food was scarce.Back to modern day its belonging to a group eg football that gives many people joy and something to live for.Indeed I often hear of old timers who have been a fan of a club since young and its their next love beside their family's .

Quoted from male private Nale
Why did we not take a knee for the White victims that were killed in the tragic events in Birmingham last week, these were carried out by a black immigrant ? Or is that not quite as shocking as a white policeman killing a black criminal in America ?



Why do people continually try to compare apples with oranges? Any murder is a huge tragedy. What made the Floyd case remarkable was that he was killed by people who are sworn by oath to protect the public. George Floyd may have been the biggest tw1t in U.S. criminal history but he was entitled to be tried and convicted of his crimes-not have his life ended by up holders of the law.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

I don't remember footballers going down on one knee when upwards of a million black people were hacked to death by other black people in Rawanda and about half of that number were women raped before they were slaughtered.


Imagine going back 25 years to try and fine something to support you point and coming up with an example of genocide that just highlights why the racist bile on this thread is so dangerous.

Absolutely, the general whataboutery on this thread is amazing.  

I’m shocked by how many people are radicalised by the nonsense news they’re getting from the internet. It’s absolutely astonishing the amount of finger pointing at the free press from those on the right and left, they both claim to have some secret truth. A truth that is being kept from everybody else by the mainstream media 😂

Take your tinfoil hat off and stop being brainwashed by fake news and propaganda.

I think you’ll find that BLM was in relation to very recent events but you already know that. Not much point discussing any further but hope you reach a point one day where you’re not scared sh1tless by everyone being treated equally.
