Bernardo Silva tweet controversy

[Coatigan]

still don't see any reason for a ban however, not even one game. it didnt happen on the pitch. an acknowledgenent that it doesnt belong in the public domain, an apology even. and move on and be less naive the next time. and the media should stop calling for one, its not on them to suggest actions.
imho.

Someone should ask Kelly dalglish how she felt when littlewoods fc warmed up wearing t-shirts supporting a convicted racist. But hinchcliffe has been taking skys money far too long to do anything than tow the party line.

Send that question to sky on twitter and to her if she is on it

I find it incredibly hard to believe that no one was racist about Hinchliffe’s chin in all his years in football.

Or his nose looking like a cock

Less of the fat if you don’t mind.

2 out of 3 ain’t bad.

Any blues still paying for Sky want their heads feeling

The best way to fuel hate against someone is to demand full control over how people are against them under a flase guise in order to create resentment.

You take something and you ignite it then watch the fires burn. And people start to say nah fuck this shit. Fuck being told what to do. Fuck being told I'm a racist, homophobic, whatever. And they resent the minority. Then when this minority asks for laws and legislation to be implemented to make their life less oppressive...guess what? They don't have the support of the majority.

So whenever somone tells you to be pissed off on behalf of a minority over something trivial just remember there is usually a sinister motive involved. And they will use the brain dead and the employed media figures to regurgitate their narrative because they daren't say anything against the people who pay them.

Which is what's happening with the Bernardo Silva non story.

Anichebe refered to Coleman as an ‘angry Irishman’, is he implying that Coleman is angry because he’s Irish and that all Irish men are angry? I don’t really care either way, just wonder if this shows the double standards that people are judged by?

I fully understand Sterling coming out in recent months about racism & the media attention it has received but a lot of people have totally miss understood the Bernardo tweet.
There is a major difference between being a racist & saying that someone looks like a cartoon character. If it was a white person he was compairing not one single word would have been said. Lets get this into perspective.

'Perspective' is not comparing a good mate to a character grounded in racist depiction.

Assuming you have any friends that are Black (not a given), how many would laugh along with you should you compare them to a 'spear chucking' cartoon character, publicly?

You would have to be extremely jovial to laugh along or extremely unaware of the history of racial characters along the wider viewpoint.

Actually, how many cartoon characters (outside 'Capt Caveman' who was actually a 'superhero') do you know that has been depicted as savages...?

This'll be interesting...

Fuck off you dick, you know what I mean, got nothing to do with some fat twat from Wilmslow

Wow. It was a joke.
Who’s rattled your cage?

And he must have been called ‘shit’ at least 300 times a day at training.

What a sly little **** he is sticking the boot in for his paymasters.

It sounded a bit like a racial stereotype to me. By the way is Raheem still answering questions about Bernardo? That went on a fucking bit
