Man arrested for Racism

[Trips]

Ireland playing Hungary tonight in Budapest in front of a full house.
Ireland team took the knee and were massively booed by the crowd.
Hungary team chose to stand, their captain did point to the respect badge on his arm when the booing started but he was pissing in the wind.

Will be an ongoing issue during the Euros.

Hungary fans more than likely booing the Marxist group that will take over the world

His best one for a while.

If this is how they react to taking the knee, please keep politicians out of sport | Football | The Guardian

The rightwingers who condemn the players’ anti-racism protest are clearly people who don’t even like football, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

This really is worth a watch, this guy is an England fan ambassador

 

[Tredman]

Sounded like appeasement to me.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I listened earlier and thought he was a massive massive cunt.

Basically "I've heard what the Manager and all the players have said but I don't believe them because I'm a massive racist"

 

[Tony Towner]

So to paraphrase the players, manager and FA have to say what it is that they are supporting, there is a lack of communication. Comical Ali territory

 

[AndyWolves]

Haha, theyve taken the video down for some reason

There was a poll on mol mix about this.

FEEDBACK - The Reasons given by 172 Molmix posters who do not want to see 'Taking the knee'

Although this is yet another poll, that has now moved to the Political sub-section, I hope it remains here at least for one night, so those who contributed whislt it was on the main forum can see the results, and everyone gets to understand reasons given by 172 who responded on this poll, from...

[Tony Towner]

I actually vaguely respect the honest racists, ať least 3% of them are up front about it

 

[darlowolf64]

"So I hope people accept that people can have genuine reasons why they don't support taking the knee. And it doesn't make them racists."

61 (35%) of the 172 responders said they did not want to support 'Taking the Knee' because: - 'I associate taking the knee with BLM and I don't like a part of what they stand for'.

5 (2.9%) of the 172 responders said they did not want to support 'Taking the Knee' because - 'I do not like people of BME background'

Well there's some racist right there...

As Glasgowwolf illustrated, I think some people have been conned into booing the knee because they don't like BLM rather than being racists.

Despite the message that the knee is nothing about BLM anymore.

I put it down to ignorance, rather than malice.

 

[Tony Towner]

Willful ignorance

 

[pr0sl0]

I mean, it is related to BLM though. The issue is that "BLM" is a slogan, not an organisation - it's not even as coherent as that other boogeyman, antifa (which at least rises to the level of a tactic).

But then the right have spent decades pointing at people on the edges of diverse grassroots movements, shouting "look at this nutter!", and letting the universal human instinct to not question things we already agree with to do the rest.

As Glasgowwolf illustrated, I think some people have been conned into booing the knee because they don't like BLM rather than being racists.

in other words because they are racists

 

[AndyWolves]

Beyond all reasonable doubt what booing means now

The FA and the England manager may *think* its not in support of a political agenda, but Glasgow Wolf knows better, obviously

ackshully racism isn't even a big deal in this country anymore.
