I have done, shared links as well, do you disagree with any of these 4 points?.... 1) Black African, Chinese & Indian groups do better at school than white 2) Whites are the least likely to go to university 3) Chinese and Indian groups earn a higher wage than white people in the UK 4) Chinese and Indian British live longer than white British Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it's Common Sense that they're not kneeling to promote anarchy and violence? Not saying it makes you a full-blown racist if you disgree with it, but you're just not on my wavelength.

Maybe they could also do do the nazi salute then, game on game off with that and then kneeling. I don’t for a minute think they’re promoting the murder of Jews, that’s common sense.

Disagreement is fine, as is discourse, if I disagree I will say. Sick.of the over simplification of this position, you're as bad as the people you hate nonsense, my 14 year old has more sophisticated positions than that. Basically, some.people on here are excusing a fucking awful position, jumping through hoops to justify it. I get it, and it does go back to what Kent said, but it doesn't make it right, and doesn't mean it shouldn't be called out for what it is. If that makes me a condescending cock in your eyes, then so be it. Im very happy to wear that badge given your stand on this.particular issue. The whole discussion is predominantly about Millwall fans. Youve been offered reasons as to why they booed, youve been offered the situation that occurred afterwards. You choose to ignore any of this and just say those that booed or anyone else that opposes the taking of the knee is a full blown racist. You been offered valid reason why people think it shouldnt happen. Again not good enough. Regarding the wider issues, again you ignore all valid reasons as to why we probably shouldn't be soley focussing on just this part of racism. Again you ignore this. Time and time again birch provides data and facts to suggest theres more to the debate that just white privilege rules. Your getting offended on somebody elses behalf. Open your mind.

Crack on The players kneel, the fans boo, crack on The main discussion point on Saturday was, are Millwall right to boo or not, many people indicating that it’s a racist act The players should be able to support whatever they want but the fans should be allowed to object given it’s a highly divisive political subject Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Clearly support for BLM can mean support for the overtly political organisations of the same name. I would think Lewis Hamilton is one who falls within that bracket, and no doubt there are footballers who are of the same mindset. They are, of course, entitled to hold such political opinions. However, it seems clear to me that the phrase Black Lives Matter has since transcended beyond that and support for it includes a wide range of different viewpoints and perspectives. To me, the claim that taking the knee is de facto support for the political organisations feels like a forced narrative. Despite that, I still think it was a mistake for the Premier League to adopt the Black Lives Matter slogan at all because it was inevitable that this kind of situation would arise. For me, the right approach would've been to substantially increase funding for Kick it Out (not Show Racism the Red Card) in order to increase their profile, visibility and influence. It's one thing to argue that the organisations sporting bodies support should be non-political (I agree), but equally that support can't just be an empty gesture.
