She also said one lad bit his tongue off to avoid being given the heave-ho.

...there are large numbers of piss-takers and chancers who see the way the wind is blowing (or was at least) and I don't blame them, I'd do the exact same thing to escape the shit boxes some of these lads are coming from.

This is literally all I'm saying. When I hear about people risking their lives to cross the open sea in a saucer, my first reflection isn't to hate them, it is instantly to recognize that my life as a human being has, thanks be to the gods, never been as bad as to willingly put myself in that situation. I have the same reaction when it comes to the homeless. Some insist on saying they're just scroungers too, and maybe they are, but anyone who is willing to beg on the street for whatever they can get, especially in bad weather, that person to my eyes is, first and foremost, a human being in a much worse off state than I am. In both cases, it means I respond with compassion towards those people, not with resentment fueled by elites. This latest cunt who has declared his presidential candidacy here in France, Zemmour, in the 10 minute video where he made the announcement he directly said, "[Immigrants] are the reason you often have difficulty at the end of the month." The guy is a fucking millionaire. These people, like Patel and Bojo and so many others, are cunts, turning humans who have more in common with each other than with the elite against each other to serve their own cunt agenda.

And all that's needed to fight back is to try to put yourself in the other person's position and recognize that your life has never been bad enough to jump into a paddling pool to try and cross the open sea, knowing full well how many corpses are in there already.

Well. How are all the racists this fine morning?


Finally something worthwhile in this thread  8)

Hehe, nicely done BSC

Lewis Hamilton is tit. If you're not going to have the balls to boycott it, shut the fuck up about it.

He's more concerned about points and personal glory than any professed principles. His BLM shtick is completely new and bandwagon-hopping of the most cynical type, because it's a cause celebre. Bear in mind that he drives for Mercedes, who are sponsored by Hugo Boss, both corporations with early ties to the Nazis, so how bothered is he really about human rights?

In a similar vein, check out this bullshit from the Danish FA...

Quote"We've also talked to migrant workers in Qatar and the message they've given us is 'please keep your focus on us, please do not boycott the World Cup"

Oh that's convenient isn't it?

The fact that's it's on there at all (World Cup in winter in a freedom hating country which treats its Gastarbeitern like shit? Fuck off) is further disgracing an already shambolic, corrupt organisation.

What's next, the All Ireland final in Jeddah?

Bit weak from the Danish FA alright, and yet still, embarrassingly, more than most have done/said.

It's like every so often you see headlines like, "Fans of X appeal with him not to perform at event in Riyadh" and then inside you see all the artists who are performing at it, and you ask yourself, "How many more reasons to want David Guetta to die in the most horrible way possible do I need??"

The WWE are among the worst, but also all the other disingenuous corporate social media departments. They ratchet up the rainbow flag or whatever the zeitgeist demands (the values of the car phone warehouse), but amusingly pretend like it's not happening when the Saudi/Chinese/Qatari Twitter handlers tweet out during gay pride.

It almost makes me want to reread Engels 'family, private property and the state' without having made up my mind before turning to page 1. Hateful, two faced spasticfannies.

That's the thing though, it's all the more embarrassing for it's pretences towards taking some kind of pseudo-moralistic stance. I'd rather they said nothing, and we could just accept them for being the money grabbing cunts that make up all professional football bodies the world over. I mean, are we seriously supposed to buy that someone in the Danish FA consulted with migrant workers in Qatar?! Whom exactly did they consult with? One bloke? A group of them during lunch break? Did they send over some lad with a clipboard and a questionnaire? G'way to fuck. Clowns. And this is kind of what annoys me about the lads who take the knee before a Premiership match, because, you know, we can all get on board with BLM cos it's fairly high profile and all that, but really who cares about a bunch of Pakistani and Indian lads, sure aren't they great workers in the first place?!

I don't really know what's going on. I heard they're "working with Amnesty International", but who knows what that means. Stopping migrant workers on the streets of Dubai and asking them if they'd be interested in pledging just €2 a month??

The knee taking in football was just pathetic. The problem is, they aren't sure how to phase it out.

How anyone takes any of it at face value is bewildering.

Yeah, not sure what exactly annoys me about this stuff the most. I mean, sure there's a bit of begrudgery involved...these lads get paid huge money to kick a football around a pitch a few times a week. Yes, they're in the top percentage of their profession and they're elite athletes, no doubt about it, but when you have the likes of Marcus Rashford banging on about school dinners and whatnot, while taking in about 200k a week, it all rings a bit hollow. For what it's worth, I'm in agreement with Caoimhin here, the Qatar World Cup is a fucking disgrace. Will I tune in? Maybe, maybe not. Should it be boycotted? Absolutely. Same shit with Lewis Hamilton. The lad's net worth is in excess of 300 million, and he's in the latter stage of his career, so he can definitely afford to sit out whatever competition he chooses without fear of any major adverse effect to his career.
