9/11 would like a word. Many Middle-Eastern people were subjected to horrible abuse after that for many years. TV stereotypes were the least of it.
I agree and it was fucking abhorrent. Thankfully now we, or at least the mass media make efforts to not promote Islamophobia. The actions of a few should never define an entire group of people. Yet this is exactly what seems to happen whenever some moronic gammony racists chat shit on Twitter.
 
Fuck off you liar.

When have I done that?

This is the only social media I engage with, so if you can't quote me doing such here... It hasn't happened.



You're the one constantly pretending and projecting.

As usual you and Samisspurs Samisspurs prove your point of view is not worth piss; because you constantly lie and false-represent people to get the upper hand.

"them"; "your lot" etc. - Bollocks..... Address people's comments as posted or shut the fuck up.

(* Distaste for scouse Distaste for scouse can fuck off too... I notice you went deathly quite after I called bullshit on you trying to play this card on me too! )
You've lost the plot mate, not sure what happened as you used to be reasonable poster

There are definitely some filthy racists knocking about on social media who are moronic enough to send racist abuse to a footballer for missing a fucking penalty. Thankfully, they make up such an insignificant percentage of people that use the internet, although that means nothing to the individual or group who is receiving the abuse.

The issue is that the media make it sound like it’s a fuck load of people, making it a bigger issue more widespread than it actually is. This fuels division and makes the problem worse. We don’t treat all Middle-Eastern people as terrorists. So we shouldn’t treat all working class, white British people as racists. It plays into lazy stereotypes, but it seems to be harmless to promote the latter nowadays.

It’s time that governments and social media corporations enforce ID linked accounts and eradicate online racist/homophobic/gender-based abuse etc... (calling someone a bellend should still be allowed though). Bring the hammer down on the thick, racist cunts and start focusing on unity, instead of constantly stoking division and disharmony.
The social media companies would absolutely love it if you had to give them even more ID than you do now as they'd use all that to sell you to advertisers.
 
Not saying they didn’t receive abuse like Beckham did for getting sent off but no evidence that it was racist
Beckham got absolute pelters for months into the season, can remember United coming to the Old Lane middle of the season and he was still getting it.
It took him until the Greece years later to truly redeem the Simeone incident with some fans.
 
Oh this place would turn on itself in minutes if all the evil right were purged. No question about it.
The hilarity of it is I'm not even right wing, I'm a centrist with slight leanings to the left.
Did the political test and that's where I came out.

But this is where we are now with politics , total breakdown, partisanship and division, anyone who voted Tories or Brexit is a Nazi, Anyone who loves their country is a racist. If you don't like racists but dare to challenge that the narrative is being blown up out of all proportion that's still not good, your still a racist, if you don't agree with critical race theory or the concept of white privilege your a racist.

It's so fucking pathetic, we are heading for a dark place if we don't reverse our course.

Getting as bad as America

There is no middle ground, context, or shades of grey with these people. It's all absolutes all the time.

Its like trying to have a convo with the fucking Sith lol

True, i actually admired him for that. He took the shit, got on with his game and actually played his best football after the Simeone incident. Say what you like about him but he was a very strong character mentally.

If Dele had half of Beckham's mental resolve he'd be a much greater player.

And when we got that dodgy penalty against Argentina a few years later Beckham stood up to take it and Simeone tried to grab his hand but he shrugged him off

Fair play to Beckham imv

off topic but I've heard good things about Dele that's he really putting in the yards this summer and is in the gym constantly, he recognises he is pissing away his talent and this European championship has woken him up to himself. Hope its true as old Dele was an incredible player.
Will be like a new signing
 

You're a purile cunt aren't you?

All your crap amounts to is "Hahah... Triggered"....... Sad.

And mate I already linked it here in this thread to you yesterday, so not sure why you' re picking this up on the third time of me mentioning it in a couple of days.

Are you okay?

I alluded to you cheering on the anti-kneeling stance.... Which you openly do.

You're abusing context again.... No spurprises here.

.....Abhorent fraud of a 'man',

You've been horribly exposed, so just own it. You were posturing about how above the slurs you are yet you do it yourself. There was your context, so you've been double rumbled.

See you next time!
 
I think you need to calm down.

Seriously. Are you okay?

I've just proved you called me a nazi and then you hit me with a wave of disagrees. I mean it's in this very thread for heavens sake. All of it!

And don't take your real life shit out on me please, whatever that is.

I'm fine thanks.

I'm disagreeing with the posts that I disagree with nothing more.....

You've proven NOTHING apart from further proving the blatant fact that you are an extremely disingenuous being.

I did not call you a Nazi.

Obviously a deeply unpleasant individual, but I shan't go as far to assume what lurks beneath the surface.
