Again, not true.
There are racist whoo are booing, no doubt.
But you cannot say 5k or 10k people are racist just like that, based on thaz gesture.

Of course it's political because of the BLM. The players aren't in that categpry, they do it because they feel lile it's right thing to do, and it is looking from that angle. But some of the fans are just angry or bored with all BLM stuff over the past year, so they probably are booing to gesture that political organisation put ahead.

I really don't care, but it doesn't seem like that's doing anything to help. For how long are they gonna kneel?
Fans in the past didn't have problem with anti-racism campaings until this one, and we all know ot's because of BLM organisation.
Of course, there are racist people, but I'm not certain there are so many, in England especially.

Sometimes I think online discussions ought to be easier as you lose all of the tone and body language noise and just get the message. But, perhaps that noise is the ingredient that's required to foster understanding - as the norm appears to be the opposite, especially on TFC where people adopt a position and simply refuse to even acknowledge differing points of view.

For a bunch of (I assume) mostly adult men, this place is weirdly emotional.
