Not really. You can think that black lives matter without supporting the actions of a movement with (that aside) extremist views.

Quite typical of the right wing to consider equality an extreme ideal. They obviously think black people are not worthy of equal treatment.

Extremists/racists in certain cases were always gonna try and hijack the BLM cause, they are the minority though I personally feel.

I also don't get how the people running the Premier League can say that they can't openly support any Political Organizations or movements when they've been doing exactly that with BLM over the last couple of weeks?

I note Prince Harry did not mention United in his toe-curling bandwagon race statement today

He really must hate United and Mancs

What a privilege pig he is

No doubt Meghan supports Leeds

tbh some former international football players here too

Ruud Gullit (whom is a person of colour) he had said: it should not be just black lives matter, but all lives matter (he said this in one of our football talk shows)

https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...-a9558276.html

but he also said this, called out to get rid of all racism in the UK

I find it hard to believe he never encounters racism in the Netherlands? seems a bit odd just to say one country in Europe needs to stamp it out

not wishing to shine a light but Germany, Italy, Poland, Austria and Hungary all have significant racial issues. I'm sure I could name more if I thought about it for more than 10 seconds

Poland can move into good direction if Trzakowski wins second round of elections, which there is a bit more of a chance too since those who had voted for other parties than him or duda in first round are expected to vote for him now

I agree with the movement itself, especially in the US, however i don't agree with the vandalism, looting and rioting. Im not surprised companies, governing bodies and certain organisations are back-peddling a bit now.

The point is that you're allowing a minority to give yourself an excuse to stop supporting the cause which makes your support in the first place hollow and fake.

Oliver, in particular, the birth of LGBT rights in the modern age began with a riot. If you were around back then, would you have denied the people who fought for your rights because a few insured buildings suffered property damage?

You both are prioritising brick and mortar above lives.
