Because its a narrative that has formed over the last few years and has fuck all to do with what the actual law of the game states.
What does the actual law say then?

Read back a few pages and you will see as its been posted.
Can’t see it. Read from page 136 onwards.
As Marvin says, Law 12 only talks about whether a tackle is careless, reckless or involves excessive force/brutality that endangers the safety of a player. It's quite acceptable to tackle with two feet as long as it's not any of these.
NapoliWe’ve also now lost the same number of matches overall.
@blueinsa To be fair that is someone’s summary of the post. Does anyone have the actual wording from FIFA?
It's all semantics. The words careless, reckless, excessive force derived from the recast of the laws 20 years ago but it was only later FIFA tacked onto it the free kick /yellow / red definitions. Reckless should have been the red and excessive force (i.e. getting the ball but just too hard) shouid have been yellow.
