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.

They’ve dug themselves a hole now and they’ll struggle to get out of it. The next time a player is booked or a crowd is banned for displaying a political slogan or singing a song it’ll bring it all home to roost. Either it’s all ok or none of it is ok. They should have just stuck to their strict no politics rules.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
We have just experienced the social version of the Crusades in the last few months.
The swathes of people and organisations bending the knee, raising the fist, all pretending together for financial and image purposes. Nobody had any real clue what they were doing, they were just doing it for self preservation and to join the crowd. Cowardly nonsense.
Absolutely nobody can explain their stance or their backing, it’s very amusing to ask them and watch the inevitable squirming, deflecting and meltdowns as they scour for any kind of justification.
You are quite right in what you say, you accept political statements or you don’t. They have set a precedent and they are going to find it very hard to now go back on that.

Just two football clubs at the weekend showed support for the murdered policemen at the Weekend. Meanwhile the sheep once again got down on one way to virtue signal.

Totally agree, they either say it's all ok or issue a statement saying that this kindof nonsense won't happen again. What the Chinese are doing is genuine oppression. Racism exists, of course it does but in it's own way BLM has perpetrated an oppression. When ordinary people minding their own business, out for a meal or a drink are harrassed and intimidated to show their support for BLM, when businesses are attacked and innocent peoples property destroyed, that is oppression.
Sports governing bodies have dug themselves a massive hole by allowing this to continue. Allow all political and or social protests or none. Sport is supposed to be escapism. Footballers are supposed to be entertainers not influencers. Dangerous times

If you can’t see it then you can’t see it.
Perhaps the rest of the world is quite wrong, and you are quite right. Unlikely i know.
The world?
Why are you if the opinion that the world thinks there is inequality? That’s clearly wrong. What you mean is the social media age of utterly barmy social justice warriors that wouldn’t know oppression If it smacked them over the head.
Again, feel free to tell us where the oppression is.
If you can of course.

I see a ridiculous video of zero substance.
Now can you stop posting videos and actually verbalise where you think the oppression and inequality is please?
You have had many chances to do it. We will have to put your name down in the long, long list that cannot state where the oppression or inequality is.
Here’s one for you. There is oppression and inequality in Iran, China and Saudi Arabia. If you asked me where, I would be able to answer in seconds and in great detail. I wouldn’t need to post a silly video or say something deflecting like “well if you can’t see it...”
Try me.

It looks like Russia China and Saudi Arabia will soon be elected to the United Nations Human Rights Council as new members. You could not make it up, three of the worst countries for abusing humans rights now will be on the council that is supposed to police it
