Perhaps they should stop the kneeling now. on 13:56 - Sep 13 by Neath_Jack
You think those sportsmen that featured today were speaking from a script? So without even hearing what they were saying, you’re telling us that they’re wrong. Shows you for what you are.
You’re damaged goods son.
Have a pleasant day.
Peronally I don't care if it is scripted as long as the message is right. Besides, even if it was scripted how can anyone know it's not exactly how that person feels?

Which the whole point. The BLM and poppy has been hijacled by The far left and far right. Keep it out of football
The poppy has not been hijacked by anyone. MPs of all parties wear it as do the representatives of over 70 commonwealth countries at the cenotaph every year.

But if the message is right will come down to if someone agrees or not.
In scripted pieces (if this was) you are listening to one persons view presented as a group of individual thoughts. That’s why politically scripted nonsense dressed up as a variety of considered thought is dangerous.
Happy for someone to explain to me why they support BLM, what BLMs political aims are, where oppression exists and in what form.
If the message is right and people believe it these should be the easiest 4 questions in the world. But everyone runs a mile from them, for good reason.

They will continue to take the knee until fans are allowed back in the stadium and make it clear that we do not approve. I predict that the week fans are allowed back into the stadium a decision will be taken not to continue...that way they won't have to face the consequences of their actions and all of the lefty idiots can continue to lie to themselves that it's just a few racists that disapprove of their idiotic ideas.
It's a bit like the EU, pro EU elites can continue to pretend that they are all powerful as long as they don't have to face the European public in a referendum. Lying to themselves has become a way of life for the left. A way of dealing with cognitive dissonance and keeping the scary world out there at bay.
What the right wing fans going to do? Fly a plane overhead with a message on it and embarrassing our club?.

My post was a general observation not a comment on the particular subject, if the message is the right message I don't care if it's scripted. I'm sure you know I am not a BLM supporter and I've been called racist on here a few times for daring to say so!

But the message being right is down to personal opinion.
For example some people may feel supporting BLM is the right message and when they feel it is the considered opinion of many they look up to it may well sway them to follow suit.
Yet the reality is its an incredibly damaging organisation. If people are going to put themselves on a platform to be a spokesman for a cause then they really need the minerals to explain it instead of just being a scriptwriters mouth piece.

That video (which to be honest I haven't watched) is quite probably a case of people just looking for easy good publicity. We see it all the time and often enough people like that are outed. A tweet or facebook post from years back emerges, a newspaper story comes back to haunt. Famous people aren't the only virtue signallers though they are probably the worst.

That's exactly what it is, but while the message they are promoting makes them feel good and is good for raising their profile (and sounds like the right message to someone who doesn't fully understand)... its adding to a toxic and false movement which just nearly murdered 2 police officers.
I am always of the opinion, if you are big enough to say your opinion then have the bollocks to back it and explain it. It never happens on that side of the fence though, they just can't muster one coherent explanation and stick around to field the reply to completion.

Why can't people from both sides just in harmony together? The world would be a better place

Because its politically driven. Those that want to live in a capitalist world and those that want to live in a socialist world, then there are those that would only like to live in a capitalist world if they could be on the right side of it... and then there are those that don't want to work and expect handouts.
There will never be complete harmony. But the best thing you can do is explain your opinions in full and don't be afraid to discuss them, that level of sensible discourse and willing to understand differing views is the closest we can get to it.

It’s a shame those pampered arseholes weren’t as keen to “take responsibility” and “step up” when Harvey Weinstein was busy raping his way around film sets; they knew, they ALL knew.
Just how debauched would you have to be to look to Hollywood for a moral lodestar?
An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

No doubt they also all knew about Epstein as well.
