What about the second part where he says the virus needs to be quicker if it wants to catch him? Seems pretty racist tbh, to assume that because he's around an Asian guy (who might not even be Chinese for all we know) so he's potentially got the virus.

Seems pretty racist tbh, to assume that because he's around an Asian guy (who might not even be Chinese for all we know) so he's potentially got the virus. He obviously doesn't 'assume the Asian has the virus' He's making a current social commentary comedy skit. Word associating a virus formed in China to an Asian man in a viral mask is low brow low hanging fruit, but hardly racist. Also black people making black people are fast jokes isn't racist either.

Smiley Culture Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 If I were Marega, I’d never play for Porto again. I’d even go as far as refusing to train with the team. The complete lack of support from his teammates was shameful. They should all be ashamed, as should the club itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted March 18, 2020 Administrator Share Posted March 18, 2020 Man City fan charged with racial abuse in the derby game https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-51930291 Quote A Manchester City fan has been charged with hurling racist abuse at Brazilian midfielder Fred. Video filmed during a derby match appeared to show a man making monkey gestures at the Manchester United star. Greater Manchester Police said they received reports of a fan making racist gestures at City's Etihad stadium on 7 December. Anthony Burke, 41, of Panfield Road, Wythenshawe, is accused of a racially aggravated public order offence. United won the match 2-1 after goals from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial. Mr Burke will appear at Salford and Manchester Magistrates' Court on 15 April. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Culture Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 Going to be unpopular but the game shouldn’t have gone ahead today, I think. It just makes the whole thing a bit of a box ticking exercise for the Premier League that they’re not quite serious enough about. The Black Lives Matter patches on shirt sleeves, the t-shirts teams have worn in their warmups and the kneel prior to kick-odd just doesn’t seem quite so serious anymore after Zaha’s suffered unbelievable abuse over night/this morning and he’s gone on and played. How much he’s been effected and how much Palace were effected is not measurable for us mere fans but I can’t imagine he’s batted it off lightly and not should he. Postponement seems quite serious, I know, and I know the abuse didn’t happen inside a football stadium but it’s a stand I feel the Premier League should have made today. The Black Lives Matter movement isn’t purely aligned to Football, let alone Premier League Football and not sport at all, it’s far bigger than that and I don’t think it looks great that today’s game went ahead.

Administrator Stan Posted July 12, 2020 Administrator Share Posted July 12, 2020 The kid who did it was only 12! Has been arrested. Begs the question as to what environment he's been brought up in either at home or school, or both, and to where he's learned all that horrible shit.

Improving efforts to come together to recognise and eliminate racism in the sport, does. There will always be racists. The fact this 12 year old twat was easily identified by the community and charges were set, is genuinely the best and reasonable thing that can be done.

I don't think anything will end racism. There will always be a couple idiots who don't understand. However, just taking a knee for 8 minutes will have no affect on those people. It's a nice sign of solidarity but it really wouldn't have any impact on "ending racism" itself. I'm not talking about going to extreme heights like removing commentators or shows on Netflix, but setting an example that won't *really* affect anyone, as the game will still be played. Anyways, I agree that arresting the kid was another good solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Postpone. Delaying the inevitable. Coming together as a community to identify, arrest, charge, and publicly shame that racist for the end of his days is the best rational thing we can do. If black lives didn't matter, that 12 year old would still be at home wanking in front of his monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This scenario has happened countless times over the last few years and nothing changes. It’s a continuation of the same problem.

The box ticking exercise by the Premier League is pointless now they’re not actually willing to take action. What else can realistically be done? Suspending football isn't just delaying the inevitable, it will set a bad precedent. Next time a club is facing relegation with its star player injured, all the fans need to do (or worse, club staff members) is create anonymous profiles racially slandering footballers on social media and football is banned for two weeks. This is just one of the many handful scenarios I can think of. Edited July 12, 2020 by Cicero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
