Do you think TIBB should be accountable for the constant racism on here, or is it the job of the people proudly declaring themselves alt-right, to not be racist?

Anyone could have guessed what would happen as soon as England lost. I hate the England fans and the wankery that goes along with them. We'd never see that with the cricket or rugby teams. I'm not saying that they would never be subjected to racism, because whilst proud alt-right folks exist, so will the bile they spread, but nowhere near the levels that not only is expected with the England football team, but also defended and attempted to move the blame from the racists to twitter or insta.

And there's nothing wrong with the emojis either. just more shifting of blame. No one has asked them to remove the aubergine in case it's used in grooming. Inane and stupid reasoning.

…just looking at the bib of your post and re-posting Leon and his little cousin’s personal experiences of racist language and behaviour…

I was lucky to be at the Semi and Final at Wembley. Im not going to go into deep details , but consoling your little cousin who’s in tears and then hearing “****ing blacks let us down” etc from fully grown men and seeing all the random violence towards random black people was heart breaking to say the least. My post hasn’t come from nowhere.

…as you also said, Slim….this is not a political, it’s a human concern and it and the reality of some people’s experiences like Leon’s can only be addressed when they’re looked square in the face at what they are, when racism is recognised and labelled for what it is and not sidetracked or side stepped or diverted or etc …when racism itself is recognised as the issue and what some face on a ‘daily basis’ ….

The OP is about online racism

FA said it was "appalled" by the "online racism" of the three players following the defeat at Wembley.

Nor sure why the platforms are getting a pass 5 pages in

The accounts are still active 3 days later btw
