For those new to the debate, I simply asked him why footballers take the knee.
Probably for same reason women wear high heels, it accentuates the muscles in their legs which means you get a more orgasmic climax when you're sat in front of the telly pounding your little weaner.
 
So he was wrong then


So are all the fans who booed taking the knee racists then?

Maybe they don’t like political gestures at a game of football

That’s why I drew the analogy of rugby league players

Watched a game last night

Just prior to the kick off players from both sides and officials stood for about ten seconds to support ‘kick out racism’ and then got on with the game

Are they all racists for not taking the knee

Simple questions

Not insulting you etc


If you actively boo this message you are racist. Unaquivical.

For the 10th fucking time! What's the political gesture? Just point it out Baz, where is it?

Did anyone boo at the Rugby? If not then fucking brilliant. If they had they would have been racist, no?
 
Nope. I think the booing is un-necessary. Why would I condone booing black players like that? What jibberish is this????



What???

(No mention of white supremacy in my comments btw..... Just reference to actual racial abuse that ACTUALLY happened.)



What would you do to fight the racism that clearly exists then?

......Do nothing and hope it goes away?

 
This is going to sound a bit radical. My contribution to minimising racism is........not being racist.

(Obviously, I didn't mean you individually but those that wish to be proactive; note the word "fight".... Of course, you knew that cos you decided to replace it with the word "minimise". :roll: )

Clearly some feel the need to do more; be it for themselves or in solidarity with their colleagues.

So we come full circle.... I don't see the need to boo them.

(No-ones insisting 'the boo-ers' bend knee and join them.)
 
Would that also involve doing nothing if you witnessed racism?

I ignore it online (along with the billion other things that attention seekers post online).

In the very rare Real Life encounters I have verbally challenged people. Most of the racism I encounter in real life is people saying that whites are inherently racist and evil. So yeah.
