You never commented on anything I raised though, other than your stance.

BLM-
1. Defund the police
2. Abolish capitalism
3. Abandon western values

Exactly how they anything to do with footballers?

Also, no comment I see on the BLM organisers, raping the funds for expensive house and salaries.
One of the women founders brother, was hired as head of security on 800k a year?
Eactly how does this relate to racism and equality?
It looks like a hijack to me of money and a revolutionists behaviour, hiding behind a sensitive issue.

Like I said, you have to seperate your feelings from the BLM farce.
Taking the knee is a symbolic gesture against racism, Tricky.

It doesn’t imply complete adherence to the BLM Movement which I have already accepted contains aspects of idealistic and dogmatic thought that I don’t agree with.

Your thread is entitled ‘Bending the knee farce’ NOT ‘The Rights and Wrongs of the BLM Cause’ although I accept that the latter probably better befits your agenda.
