Will the World Cup footballers take the knee for the slaves that have died building the stadiums in Qatar ?
Were they black?
What a stupid question

I don't believe you struggle to understand why specifically anti black racism in the west is a big issue for footballers.
Why does this trigger you so much?

Taking the knee for black people is this year's trendy cause, next year it will be Muslims in China, the year after, Kurds in Turkey, and what will be hip in 2024? Your guess is as good as mine. Perhaps the oppressed Catholics in Ulster ? ...... No, that's been done before. It's all a game to you and the stupid kids on this board

It'd be great if more attention was given to what's happening with Kurds and Uighurs, glad we agree on that.
Why are you so angry?

I'm not angry, I just despair that stupid people support the most 'popular' oppressed minority in much the same way that they follow the latest pop group.

So you’d rather players took the knee for a different minority? That’s your issue?

Players seem to be in favour still, some people applaud, some boo, all are free to express their opinions in a free society, but there will come a point when it’ll stop for sure, just as the clapping the NHS.
I don't think they are free to express their feelings ,there are probably quite a few that would like to stop protesting but peer pressure prevents them .
Anyway those same players will be the same ones rolling around and screaming foul and trying to get their fellow "Mates" sent off and perhaps a manager sacked ! Hypocrites .

Rolling around on the floor is equal to using racist abuse ?

Daft as it is , but still a statement .
