Instagram posts were filled with disgusting comments. Banners were brought out by certain ultra groups. Captains of teams refused to wear a rainbow on their shirt.

But we live in a progressive country, guys.

  • Just a wild guess: did the comments say things like “don’t bring politics into sports”?

    Also, aren’t ultras supposed to be even further left than us (basically utopian socialists)? Why the hell would they be anti-LGBT+?

      Football ultras are hard core supporters that make the noise in the stadium. They can be far right to far left. Not political ultras, sorry for the confusion.

      Yes, some banners said: no woke, yes coke (cocaine). Other just outright hated gay people. One captain said he did not want to do it because he’s Muslim but proceeded to play with gambling sponsors on the shirt, which a muslim also cannot do. So it’s just hating gays.

      • B-b-b-but you misunderstand. That was working class stuff, bro. Anyone who breaks a tiny sweat at work are antipolitical hard right tough guys who dont care about no sissy stuff! 😤

        You sythetics just dont get it, bro.

          Unfortunately large parts of the working class are still anti-'woke, anti-LGTBQ+ and right wing. They won’t be convinced by a party that displays all kinds of ‘woke’ stuff, like treating gay people as normal people.

          It’s a thing our party continues to have problems with. Equality is a thing we are not willing to debate on or to compromise on, and for some working class people that’s a line they won’t cross. Tough luck.

          • Yeah. Some working class people will tolerate eating roaches and letting their landlord fuck their wife of it means they get a wee little chance to participate in a lynching or classic f* g drag.

            Such a shame and disappointment.

          It sent some progressive types into a spiral, because we have to respect muslims and we have to fight for the LGBTQ+ community. No, fuck him. If he doesn’t see another person as a human being, he can get fucked.

          On the other hand, right wingers don’t seem to know what to do. Defend LGBTQ+ rights all of a sudden, or insult muslims.
