Seems like the thin veneer of the global grandstanding and virtue signalling that has swept the Western World like a plague, is very easy to expose and (pun intended) the mask is slipping.
Happy to stand up for the fashionable false oppression - which nobody can explain... yet Arsenal distance themselves from Mesut Ozil who spoke out against China and their ACTUAL oppression over minorities.
Add Arsenal to the long list of these examples alongside LeBron James and the NBA at the very top.
Cash is king.

I think Jordan Pickford misread the memo when he was told to “take the knee.”

As someone who hates to upset people and I'm sure there are many amongst us who feel the same but exactly who decides when this stops ?
could it be Nathan perhaps

Its up to the individual? Coure it is.
It is utterly divisive as Im sure many see this knee bending as signalling only.
And why the fit pump? Are those who do not marginalised | |

It remains the choice of an individual player or players if they wish to take the knee
Having assessed the views of their players, clubs should try to mutually agree an approach before each match (preferably prior to match day)
In circumstances where clubs cannot reach an agreement, it is recommended that clubs seek to find a sensible compromise position to try to achieve a consistent approach to matches. For example, clubs may decide that the views of the home team's players should take precedence at each of the two matches between the clubs this season, thus delivering each set of players' preferred position at one game
Should there be no agreement, then individual players will be free to take the knee
Match officials are briefed to facilitate any variation of request(s) and clubs via their captains' should communicate the approach at the pre-match briefing | |

It’s just a deliciously stupid paradox that people earning more money in a week than most folk do in months because of their sheer hard work and talent earning the adoration of millions seem to think they are persecuted because their skin produces slightly more melanin than others. | |

Month ? more like years, in some cases a lifetime. |  |

Ozil believes he has been frozen out at Arsenal because he criticised the human rights record of China and their horrific treatment of the Uighur Muslims which hurt Arsenal’s commercial interests in the country. | |

Wonder what action the players will take after the Nigerian police open fire on peaceful demonstrators. | |

Do black lives not matter if they are shot by black police? | |

Nothing to do with the fact that he’s been half hearted and s**t for the last season and a half then. |  |

He was playing regularly up until lockdown, and surely anyone with any knowledge of football would know that even a half hearted Ozil is several levels better than Joe Willock or Mailtland Niles. | |
