Why Premier League Players Take The Knee



Racism is bigger than football. And it hasn’t gone away.
Taking the knee is about recognising reality and demanding change.
It’s a symbol of pride.
So if you’re a supporter… Support this.

  1. It was never about racism, it was about politics. BLM is a self-proclaimed far-left Marxist organization. Their first priority was to remove Trump out of office. These incidents also happened under Obama, but they didn't blame him. Woke is a racist cult.

  2. They don't understand why they are kneeling most are just thick footballers.if they knew the origins of this silly gesture they wouldn't do it.just play football leave virtue signalling to the bbc

  3. This is all lies and socialist propaganda taking the knee does nothing to combat racism . What will work is to ban the fans ,fine the guilty clubs heavily and dock them points . We have proof the FA are corrupt !

  4. Racism can't be cured or fixed…it's a byproduct of people being forced to coexist within the same space and scrap over limited opportunities, recognition and resources.

    Native Brits come from families who have lived on the Isles for thousands of years and many benefit from intergenerational wealth.
    In comparison to that, non-white brits usually come from economic migrants who left their country behind because of war or poverty.
    So naturally non-white brits are more likely to be in the lower class of society…and the lower class of society has always had an inclination towards elevated levels of crime.

    That is why non-whites are overrepresented in crime data, not because they're being targeted through institutional racism.
    If anything the Justice System has a reluctance to actually hold non-white criminals accountable because when they do it causes riots and racial blow-back.

    The only way to fix things is to return to homogeneous society, and I would argue that it's a human right to live in communion with your own ethnicity and to formulate shared identities.
    That would require either the deportation of some 10 million foreign ethnics in the UK, or it would require some form of segregation….and I can't see neither of those things being palatable to the public…so pretty much get used to societal dysfunction because it's going to be here for centuries.

  5. Because if you don't as a footballer, you will be cancelled on social media, forced to leave your clubs that you've been playing for because the elitists aka the Illuminati don't like that you think, they don't want you to think critically, just "think" in a Marxist mindset and brainlessly follow order to surrender any dignity to the communist/capitalist elites controlling the world that's why PL football players take the knee. Has nothing to do with racism.

  6. IT ISN'T JUST THE PREMIER SHIT, TAKING THE KNEE. WATFORD V WBA (20/2/23)DID IT 😞 THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THIS NONSENSE,IS THE SUPPORTERS (MATCH) SHOULD WALK OUT 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍

  7. I remember growing up in the 70s and 80s racism was rife…..I don’t see it anymore.this take the knee rubbish by top sportsman needs to be stopped as no one takes a blind bit of notice anymore…it’s old,boring and definitely not as perceived.you want to take the knee? Leave sport and become a politician or campaigner.it’s a sport so leave it at that…ties in with the wind rush scandal where I don’t think Teresa may should have apologised!!! What next? Apologise for Henry the right cutting heads of?..my generation didn’t cause these issues or slavery…time to put it to bed.

  8. THEY TAKE THE KNEE AS THERE TOLD TO BY THE BOSSES AND TOO SCARED TO SAY NO , BENDING THE KNEE IS WHAT COURT JESTERS HAD TO DO IN THE PRESENCE OF THE KING … ASK YOU SELF THIS ARE YOU A COURT JESTER !!!!

  9. So is it okay for hypocrisy in football. Is it OKAY for a ex perm player England International BBC employe to support such language as gun crime hate crime? And above all grooming of children to a gang culture? Shame on Ian shame on the BBC.
