Plus there are some people out there who’ll say anything on social-media for clout/a reaction under the projected guise of sentimental morality so it’s just one of those things. One-way-or-the-other, people of any race who think her death is something to actively-celebrate are disgusting.
Tbf it's not just the Football that's been cancelled.

I agree with your post in particular near the end.
