Henderson: 'money affi mek'

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

It’s all about the money, yo.

Southgate / The FA / his ex-footballer mates lining up to tacitly defend Henderson or even explicitly endorse the move, because they think the Saudis might cut them cheques in the future, is hilarious tbf.

no one in Saudi Arabia cares about this. and no one in Britain cares about this either. these articles just stink of racism tbh.

that's why we shouldn't hold celebrities on a pedestal just because they do something good, like how Henderson used to be an LGBT+ ally. We can say "Well done" but should always recognize that we don't know them personally at the end of the day. That's why i don't really vibe with comments about how "good of a guy Jack Grealish is". He's done things that i found heartwarming but thats just one aspect of his, he was still capable of drunk driving in the past and i cant say he changed in that aspect for sure just because he's also nice to disabled fans

All the support from Hollywood movies, all companies, video game companies. They are only using it as a tool to make money.

Like the spiderman devs, they are all 'supportive' with the pride flags in their game and severely denouncing the modders who modded them out. But just turn around the corner, insomniac themselves remove them for the Saudi Arabia version of the game.

Minorities are being used. Little mermaid actress was put there not because she was the best candidate, she was cast precisely because she is black.

Europe is electing far fascists who hate gay people as well, in the Netherlands a guy won by landslide who openly advocated for genocide against Moroccans/Turks, hates Trans people etc.. . So should we shame every single player who plays in the Dutch league then ?
