One thing I have noticed from all this is that no one understands social media. Nearly every single person in the world can make a post and in lots of cases (because the celebrity chooses to) can speak to high-profile people directly. Now I feel like these companies have an easy ride because of the libel exemption in America. Can you imagine putting up a community whiteboard outside your house that contained some of the stuff on social media?Kneeling is as harmless as sitting on a bench watching the wind in the trees.
Anybody booing that is more racist than they realise.
But I agree, it's not achieving anything.
I get irked by Spurs tbh. Go on their Facebook pages and there is absolutely nothing to moderate the comments
They bleat on about social media allowing racism to exist but Spurs have the power to delete nasty comments and ban posters from the page. But they don't.
Besides all that, the comments are obviously wrong but when anyone, in whatever state, can make a post to the whole world and to the person themselves, I am not sure what can be done apart from limited who can post. I don't know why footballers aren't calling for that. I am not sure what is being called for in the practical sense.
