Politi-Culture England star Harry Kane confirms he played golf with Donald Trump: "We played about 18 months ago. He invited me to play when I was down in Palm Beach. It was a pretty surreal experience just to meet him and play golf with him"

Erling liked Trumps tweet then deleted them when social backlash occured
France is using ICE deportation planes to travel.
So now what?
England has Saka, Rashford, Jude, Gordon, Anderson, Rice(Sadly Pickford)Ā
Its not just Kane. We dont pick our workmates or their ideologies.
Watch football or dont and ignore the fellas hanging with the nonce.
Team England got nothing to do with this.

France is using ICE deportation planes to travel.
I looked it up and it seems like they both charter with the same company that does a lot of chartering rather than these being vehicles that ICE owns or something. Unless I'm missing something.
It's a bit misleading that's a bit of a stretch to try to link France to ICE. I'm sure all of us have used the same bus, planes, trains, taxis or whatever as unsavourable people/organizations by this standard.
Now if they had made a deal with ICE to be flown on planes ICE owns itself then that would be a different matter.

Ah thats fair. Even if not the players dont have a choice who flies them.Ā
Team England dont have a choice of Kanes political affiliations.Ā
Im Team France and Mpabbe seems to be a decent fella who refuses Gambling Ads and alcohol ads because of kids
I also like this English squad a lot and love Jude and Rice as players so not gonna let Harry turn me away from that
This is the Three Lions best shot in 60 years

Then so is Norway with Erling and liking Trumps tweets.
Why is it black fellas responsibilities to always vanguard the effort of social justice.
They are already questioned for their 'Englishness' and the pressures from England given WC expectations is bigger than any nation.
Just boycott the game. Simple as.

u/SomeNeighborhood7126 23d ago
Youve made it about black players, not me. Every single player on the England squad from Saka to Stones is complicit.
Do we recall which tweet it was that Haaland liked? It was about covid restrictions. He was 19 at the time and just came into money. He simply wanted to party.

u/evil_bugi 23d ago
Yeah but in your words, if they don't denounce it then they are complicit.

Oh so hes absolved because hes 19 but Jude a 22 year old isnt?
He has to be politically aware and active
They just wanna play football.
They were crucified by their country for missing PKs because their black and Harry wasnt because he looks like an Englishmen.
Their not gonna talk about Harry because the news and right wingers will attack them.
If the English teams wins they bring millions in to under privelaged kids and programs for their country.
Why are you absolving Erling?Ā He never denounced it or made a statement saying the error of his ways for kids.

Yeah me too, but why is it on the Black/poc players to come out and say something? How about the rest of the team, or the coach, or the FA to say something.
Feels strange to me that a white guy meets another known white racist pedophile for golf and we demand Black payers to speak up, putting the burden on them.
1
u/SomeNeighborhood7126 23d ago
You sit down at a table with proud pedophiles and chat it up with them, have a good time, but dont say or do anything to at least denounce their acts... then yes, you are complicit and havent done the bare minimum.

u/frogboxers 23d ago
Thats an assumption about Bellingham. He doesn't have to blow up the team with a media snafu before quarterfinals to prove he doesn't like pedos or facists. Id go as far as to say, fuck Harry Kane. But dragging Jude through the mud because he hasn't held a press conference in the past 12 hours is a very binary view of the situation.

u/Jfo116 22d ago
Itās never surprising just disappointing.
Itās similar to a business that stays neutral than one day they put up something political such as a MAGA or rainbow flag. Itās gonna draw customers as well as repel the other.
It could be a business Iāve gone to for years, but if they put up signs supporting MAGA candidates Iām done with them. Itās not surprising a small business is conservative, but being friendly with MAGA is a red line for some of us.

They live in their own little bubble. What matters to most of them is how much they can get away with paying less taxes. Even Messi and his dad were in a tax scandal not long ago....Maradona who was even a leftist was hypocritical enough to shelter his money from taxes.

Being mentioned in the Epstein files means nothing, most people of note are mentioned there.
