I never suggested to pretend it wasn’t a serious misjudgment but some of what had been decided on here was not necessary (imo)

Don't be a dick, nobody is trying to hang anyone.
Who hasn’t held him accountable or in any way defended him?How dare a Spurs player be held accountable for being a dick
Let him off, don’t mention it, and only speak up if it’s an Woolwich player
Obviously sarcasm and irony ain’t your strong points
You’ve misquoted me there John
destroying .... progressive
by calling him a racist I think that’s destroying his character
of course if the movement doesn’t gain traction then it won’t be destroyed
maybe I should have gone with harming / slandering in hindsight
Silly of him but he has apologised so lets move on.
Haven’t really read much mate to be honest, only a fine which is fair.
A ban would be silly, even though it’s one way to get him out the team for a bit
Who said hang him?
Irony and or sarcasm appears not to inhabit your sphere of discourse either. Just put me on ignore saves me having to explain
What a crass end to your post.
We are talking about protection from discrimination in a public place and disseminating said discrimination via social media and online, and you get all righteous and end it up by suggesting those excessively offended (in your view, which was a valid point) must be non binary or vegans, itself discriminatory to these groups of human beings...

Nothing funny here whatsoever
I don't really find this racist. It is a fact of life that Coronavirus is spreading from the far east. If you spend time in London you would likely notice that loads of East Asians wear masks in public. Yes he was a bit silly to zoom into the Asian dude (given his high profile) but there is no racism or malice in this IMO.
Your comment implied people were going ott in condemning him. I’ve not seen that, but I can happily ignore if you’re going to be a little bitch about it
It's all the moon's fault?Explaining peoples reactions, to me this plays into this:
Hope we can chill with each other, a lot of built up anguish and frustration comes out, from our other baggage/stress, when we get heated on days like these IMO.
Makes us more sensitive to stuff, so we tend to argue more is all I mean.
Not saying there is no issue, but the more extreme reactions are probably scapegoating, which is more prone on such days (know multiple people who worked A&E and they said there is definitely something to the full moon lunacy thing, as they would get many fold increases in mental health admissions on those days).
The moon makes us more sensitive to stuff??
WTF?

Supermoon spiritual meaning: The ancient significance and traditions
A SUPERMOON this weekend marks the second Full Moon of the year - but what is the spiritual meaning behind the Supermoon and are what some of the ancient traditions associated with the Snow Moon?

It significantly influences tides world wide, we are loosely the same water/solid mass composition to the earth, it's not a stretch to believe that it would influence us as well, no?
The people who said it to me were a nurse and doctors, when I brought up lunacy (as my wife kept having mini breakdowns on full moons).
The scientist I love reading stuff on about ionisation, believed that on the full moon the ionisation of earth is at it's lowest, so least electrons are drawn from the earth (the stuff that makes you feel good in the atmosphere after an electrical storm, or near the seaside)...
