You can tell he was going to do it properly before realising he was being watched, I've never been to football and felt the need to start bouncing my knees and bringing my arms up. He knows what he's doing and he's been found out.
 
Now you're just lying to yourself.
Okay. Then you are also lying to yourself if you really think there is no room for doubt with those clips.... Anyway if you're right and it's obvious blatant monkey gesturing... Then he will be convicted for it.
 
This is how the italians are attacking racism:

:D I just can't believe this at all! It makes no sense, I mean why?!
 
It's on bloody video!?

There is a man jumping once with his hands moving less than 4 inches up and down once (and about 2-3 inches side to side) and making an O shape with his mouth whilst his face is looking about 6ft to the right of "Fred" - that is what is actually on camera.

You are assigning one potential reason for it, others are assigning another, therefore there is a doubt as to his actions and under law if the act is in doubt it will be very difficult to "prove" his guilt.

Just because you see 100% guaranteed racism doesn't make it an actual fact until he's actually convicted, which I don't think happen due to the ambiguity of his actions.

Those Italian papers on the other hand, just wow, I've no idea what they were thinking!!!!

My immediate thought is that we are all monkeys, or at least primates. Maybe that is his point. It's kinda interesting really, does it also point towards seeing racism where there is none?

Ofc I can also see that many folk would see it as insensitive, but again maybe that is part of the point that we're all primates, so saying someone is a monkey is the same as saying you yourself are also a monkey. Hypocritical racism?
 
Welcome dude :)

As for the weird colours, maybe that has to do with football strip colours? Do they correspond to Italian strips? The light blue and white does I think at least?

Could be a jab at why is it okay to support colours in the first place... Hypocritical support of colours... Primates of different skin colours wearing the same colour, while different colours are hated yet worn by monkeys of different skin colour.
 
Spurs v Chelsea could in danger of being stopped here. 2 warnings from the loudspeakers about racist abuse now.

Even though its still a small minority it definitely feels like its on the increase but it's hard to prove i guess.

Certainly possible its always been there but now we are more focused on identifying it. However politics and Brexit has encouraged it somewhat.
 
Hahaha I doubt that very much. This lot don't have the brain for politics, and have no idea what Brexit actually is.
Maybe you should make stupid white monkey gestures at them? I mean, does it strike you as just a little hypocritical of you to deplore making fun of someone because of the colour of their skin, but it being okay to make fun of someones intelligence?

It's a funny old world, anyway, has the guy been sentenced for the blatant racism yet?

I'm making fun of racists because racism is not a trait of the enlightened mind and is often, as is the case in football, located in the lesser mind.


You really just trying to get offended on behalf of the racists? Or did the intelligence mock hit something raw :P

No, I'm surprised to see you white knighting (or black knighting, whatever you prefer) what you 100% percieve as absolute racism, then jumping on another stereotype.... as if that's okay, but really it doesnt make sense if you think about it.

If you really want to battle our wits, I think you not being able to see the merit in using monkeys in art to help stop racism... instead jumping right into "thats racist" mode, tells all.

Your turn :p
 
Tis no battle my friend ;) read the post you quoted which it explains all. And I prefer brown knighting if you wish to colourise, although the need to add that joke in your post is quite telling of your mindset :P

Please explain to me the stereotype you think I am mocking? As if you can't guess from the post you have quoted, the way I see it a racist is fair game...
