Look forward to seeing someone in the Holmesdale end spotted making a gesture attacking wealth or promoting feminism

Was this a racist gesture? Yes

Is there a zero tolerance policy to racism in football? Yes

Should the perpetrator be made an example of as a result? Yes

Is there more media frenzy over these incidents because of footballs past? Yes

Is making a racist gesture or being racist equivalent to calling someone a w***er? No

Is general use of aggressive profanity and bellendery within crowds acceptable? No

Is it possible to have the same level of passion and engagement without extremes of the above? Yes

It doesn't always naturally develop. That's the point. It's natural for you to bring it back to the same topics every time, regardless of thread, but not for everyone else. Sometimes your agenda is relevant, sometimes not. It's ironic you talk about bashing the pieces until they fit.

It's the same protagonists every time... You are one but not the worst.

Simply parachuting the same narrative and into every thread is beyond boring. The amount of times I've seen the same stuff repeated or rephrased to try and subvert threads is tiresome. This one included.

It's as though this site is being used as a coercion and conversion platform, whilst you reinforce your views within various other likeminded echo chambers elsewhere. The pattern is so observably pervasive that it's an approach the political class would be proud of – you lot have an agenda. Great. Sometimes it aids debate, sometimes it distracts. Knowing when it's more or less relevant to deploy is the key here.

Threads staying mainly on topic is literally the point – pretty sure it gets called out by mods when things deviate.

And yes it's not lost on me that the tactics have worked again here, so

Sexist and mysoginistic...

You're so far down the hole you don't even know who or what you're replying to, just mindlessly repeat the same thing over and over again.

'Knowing me as you do' (you don't know me at all), can you point to one example of me seeking to shut down opinion previously? No bluster here, just a straightforward example.

The irony of you accusing anyone of an outrage session while you blow your top about the world changing on a daily basis is amusing.

Hopefully there's another new thread tomorrow where you can tell us what you think about globalism and immigrants - that will make for interesting reading, I love a new take.
