Taking the knee to continue

[Swissclaret]

What a sh*t show it all is now.

Society has lost the plot in Britain. Two words, that are very different in meaning, have become conflated to the exclusion, nearly, of one.

I think I am correct in saying that the Race Relations Act introduced “discrimination” based upon race, colour, creed etc. It was as much an offence to discriminate on the grounds of colour as it was on the grounds of Catholicism, for example.

“Racism” and, perforce, a “racist” is the belief that one race is superior to another. A “racist” believes that a black Caymanian (where I lived for many years) is superior to a black Honduran (which is a prevalent belief there).

Enoch Powell, then MP for Wolverhampton (a predominantly black community) tried to explain the difference and was pilloried for it.

Are the police “racist”, I would say no. Do they discriminate, well the example of the Asian grooming gangs answers that question.

Is discrimination worse than racism? I would say yes. A feeling of superiority does not really hurt a person. Discriminating and denying someone their rights, for example, is far worse.

Eagles convinced me once when he took a pen at Turf Moor, he gently side-footed it wide of the post, and this was a player working with Grezza, one of the best pen takers the game has ever known, on a daily basis, and he was too thick to take on board how it should be done.

Equality may be a right but there is no power on earth that can turn it into a fact. (Balzac). I do not know what our millionaire footballers think they have achieved in the real world while they have been bending the knee. It seems like the square root of naff all but maybe it makes them feel good about themselves as they dump their rainbow armbands in the airport trash before boarding a flight to Jeddah. I just do not know.

It's the sheer bloody hypocrisy that really gets on my tits Sir Outwood. Run a foodbank, adopt a Somalian orphan, but stop taking the knee you fake b@stards.

I'll guarantee you none of them vote Tory, they're typical sanctimonius, virtue-signalling hypocritical Lefties.

I'm not at all certain that 99.9% of them have the intellectual capacity to vote either way mon ami. We must remember it's our own FA who insist on this bollox and I'm not at all sure the head ponchos at our FA are your typical sanctimonious, virtue-signalling hypocritical Lefties.

VAR, games extended to 115 minutes, instructions given to take the knee, typical sanctimonious, virtue-signalling hypocritical Lefties or total whack jobs? I'll go with total whack jobs who seem hellbent on ruining the beautiful game.

Virtue signalling Lefties and whack jobs are not mutually exclusive mon ami.

If you want to see a proper whack job in action, look no further than Lee Anderson. My God what a tw@t.

Interesting that it maybe against a white players human rights if they demand he takes the knee ( tongue in cheek - bet the lawyers would have a field day with this rubbish ).

I know next nothing about said Mr Anderson mon ami, but he does have two things going for him, he has apparently suggested to the free-loading illegals that if they don't like this country they can always feck off back to France, and you think he's a tw@t, both of which suggest to me that actually Mr Anderson is a top man.

Incidentally, how many of the free-loading, illegal whingers have taken Mr Anderson at his word and actually fecked off back to France ? My guess would be none, but you would know better than me.
