I agree with parts of this- especially being anti BLM but at same time pro anti racism. . However don’t get fooled into research with lazy conclusions like the commentators one. Maybe ....... that they are just reporting what they are seeing. Black players are more athletic. Just look at the Olympic hundred metres. There are genetic differences. Just like there are differences between sexes. Commentating on this is not racist or sexist.



FFS!

It is a possibility that the games the commentators were analysed on. That the players were. What is wrong with that?

The 13% who can think for themselves? That don't believe The Daily Mail is gospel?

Or is it 13% of white men who aren't scared sh*tless by the idea of British society changing and that might just mean that they'll lose a bit of their privilege?


Why is it that the only people who talk about white privilege are "WHITE LIBERALS" ?

Where are the tensions coming from?

For example, when a group of young, peaceful protestors (a decent proportion, of not majority, women) decide to silently walk along Cleethorpes prom then stand on the beach for a few speeches, who was it that ended up on the front of the paper?

It was the group of largely middle-aged blokes who’d spent most of the day on the drink, then decided to fight with the police, shout and swear at the protestors and throw eggs at the women and kids.

Who needs to adjust their behaviour in that situation?


Wasn’t this just after BLM had run riot in London?  looting shops and attacking police officers? Then finished off with the desecration of one of our greatest war hero’s.

For those who think town players should continue taking the knee when do you think the right time for them to stop will be?

They're not, it's just that the only places you read it or watch it are when it's "white liberals" being quoted (or usually misquoted) and the phrase "white liberals" is being used as a term of scorn or outright abuse.

You are seriously going to stand by the sentence "Black players are more athletic"? You can't see how preposterous that statement is?

When they want to.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

It’s not how it was meant. It was meant to be a suggestion they could have been. And if you look at other explosive sports they seem to dominate? It was meant to be a suggestion. Not an actual fact. Deleted anyway.

I can’t imagine very many footballers are communists or anarchists. All of this kneeling is quite separate from any political party or official group.

There is also no threat from communists or anarchists in this country. Communist Political parties have existed in this country for a hundred years, at the peak of their membership the biggest only reached 60,000 and that was in 1945. The current British Communist party has around 800 members.
