Yes, he seems to ignore his warnings

They save all their energy for blaming white folk for a non genocide.. hostages probably deserved it in their eyes.

No one is scared to judge black people (I mean, read the forum - only Muslims and trans people are judged as much/more). The reason Israel is different, is because they're (supposed to be) an ally who we supply military equipment, reconnaissance, and manpower to. It's bombs and tech that is built by British workers, that are being used to do a holocaust.

You keep bringing up the hostages, whilst ignoring deals have been offered to release them, and also Israel killed lots of their own people on October 7th, especially as part of the Hannibal directive (if you don't know what that is, then maybe have a look into it).

Are you calling Jews "white folk?". Anyone on the forum (maybe with Semitic ancestry) want to comment on this? It will be crickets.

You conflated Israel and zionism with Jews in the other thread, and now you're calling them honkys.

Yet I'm the anti-Semite.

The Hannibal directive has been taken out of context by the easily led in the world.

Let's say that's true (it isn't); so Israel knows it's hostages are being held in gaza, and have decided the best way to get them back safely, is not to commit to one of many deals that's been offered, but rather, instead, to massacre every living thing and level every building to the ground? That's what we're going with?

Remember the outrage at the beginning, when Israel was (rightly) accused of intentionally bombing a single hospital? That outrage has switched to defending Israel bombing every hospital.

Folks have lost their humanity through this conflict, and it's the most ghoulish thing I've ever seen.

Considering how racist he has been, and all the warnings he has had he still gets to have a final MOTD

If you want to pay me for my professional opinion I'd be happy to talk about whatever you like and I'll send you a bill. But I am not here in a professional capacity and these are my personal opinions. That's how a forum like this works.

Surely your personal opinion is informed by your "professional" opinion on such issues? I don't see how they could be 100% separate.

Obviously, I wouldn't expect your professional opinion to inform your personal opinion if you were commenting in one of the ore whimsical threads, but in threads where you comment on issues that involve matters of international law, it's just not believable that there would be no crossover.

Anyone can comment on whatever they like, but you seem rather keen to use your "expertise" to shut people up, but you never want to share any of your knowledge when it comes to educating, but that's completely your choice.

If anyone wants to know about social housing and psl contracts, I'm happy to try and educate and share my knowledge - free of charge. I'm sure most people on here would be happy to inform and educate in any areas that any of us know more than others - because that's really how a forum like this works.

Someone posts a thread

Poster A - this is what happened
Poster B - no it's not, because you've missed this
Poster A - no you're wrong because...
Poster C - I have this qualification and you're both wrong because shut up

I've never seen anyone else do the poster C thing.

Can anyone actually specify any war that follows rules. The aim in any war is to win and that is how it has always been since the beginning of time

Come on Liv. If you're quoting my posts, then you're reading them. No need to be silly, because you can't address the points I make, so instead fall back to the base game, dismissive character playstyle, because you think it projects confidence, when it really doesn't.

Find yourself a hobby, why don't you?

Gary's simpering apology was embarrassing to watch. He really just doesn't get it. I'll be interested to see what he does next. Kuennsberg must be quaking in her shoes seeing a political heavyweight like goal-hanging Gary on the job market.

Have you actually watched the video? There are zero factual errors in the content. the only issue was the tiny rat, which I acknowledged how/why was a bad look in the other thread. Every single second of content is true.

No apology will ever be enough for Zionistic propaganda and it will only be used against you. You're acting as though he said "kill the rat Jews." Not one inch should ever be conceded to these false smears.

At the risk of infraction and/or ban, **** off and leave me alone. I don't want to talk to you about anything, ever. But you insist on pushing this everytime the subject errs towards Israel in particular and Jews in general. Find someone who cares about what you have to say. There must be someone, somewhere...

I was discussing the content of a video about Zionism. You are the one who keeps bringing Jews into it. Even you know what you're doing because you prefaced it with "Israel in particular."

Trust me, anyone is allowed to say anything they like to me - there is no risk of an infraction. Unless this game is about trying to get posts deleted by making threads messy? It's hard to tell.

I'm allowed to reply to your posts, Liv. You don't have to reply back and are welcome to completely ignore me. I told you it was only the projection of confidence.

If Israel won Eurovision, I bet he would put his hat in the ring to cover for Graham if he decided to pull out.

It is his choice to be like a Nazi, sadly.

It was definitely unfortunate from Lineker.

I think sometimes he says and does stuff before thinking it over in his head how it's going to come across to other people.

It's refreshing in some ways tbf to him, but the Israel/Palestine debate is a minefield at the moment, both sides (not just the pro-Palestine side like some on here only care to point out, when they say or do something wrong,) should be being careful when saying something against one side or the other.

Tbf, the BBC have been given a very short time period to start looking for a replacement as it is.

They were never going to sack Lineker with one weekend of Football to go.

Well tbf he wasn't a huge Celebrity that was hosting the BBC's flagship Football Show.

Rightly or wrongly, the BBC will want to make sure that the person replacing Lineker is going to be popular with the audience, which does take time.

I am pretty sure they could find someone to replace him for the one show that is left, someone from MOTD2 perhaps...he is not irreplaceable and you cant just say...oh you are a big star so its okay to be racist, but you are not such a big star so going to kick you to the curb for being racist, what kind of message does that send :laugh:

Livia 20-05-2025 09:25 AM

Mark Chapman does a sterling job when Lineker's not there. Or Micah Richards. There are loads of people who could do the job while keeping their big flapping gobs shut on stuff they're hazy about.
