It’s surely because our owner is part of the ruling family of Abu Dhabi whereas the American owners do not run America.
The argument shouldn’t be based on where the owners are from, more the actions their owners take.
The hypocrisy is the fact that United, Liverpool and Arsenal fans throw out the human rights abuse card, whilst completely ignoring the fact that their clubs are happy to take money from businesses with questionable ethics.
It seems like human rights and sportswashing only applies to ownership. If it’s a sponsor, fill your boots.
