This is very on point, we really need to start looking at this from statistical point of view, I think some people are under the delusion that racism will someday disappear, and if we are honest, we know it never will. Progress will be determined by reduction in number of people expressing these views, the general thinking seems to be that since it still happens, progress haven't been made and that is not true.

like you said 1% population are minority, but if we just say "oh, i have seen people insulting Rashford on twitter today, Britians are racists". We are not looking at the issue objectively.

Like Raumdeuter said online anonymity gives some kind of cover to the perpetrators, it's possible for one racist to open multiple accounts and bombard Rashford with these comment, 100 racists doing that will seem like a large population on social media.

I hope we can learn to be more objective when this issue comes up, if we keep looking at this from emotional perspective, the issues will merely be aggravated.

I think the people that showed up physically to defend Rashford just in one small street in Withington (different from Wythenshawe, his hometown) is more than all the racists who abused him on Social media combined.

If you don't know, Rashford is a legend in Wythenshawe, his hometown which is 90% white and poor. Niggas murals are all over the place like he's the Biggie and 2Pac of Wythenshawe

Joe Rogan had Jack Dorsey on a few months ago and he talked about the difficulty fighting racism online

You can't have moderators watching every post, it's not possible, he uses bots and AI to look for a particular sequence of words but people got clever and changed the words they used and how they used it

Should the AI ban anyone that post an emoji of banana, people assume that these things are easy to solve but they aren't


As for black players
Pele became the greatest Brazilian footballer ever, he was a blank man, he rose above the racism that he faced

Horjberg was easily TOT top 3 performers last season, look at his overall season stats, if you think he failed, then you are merely suffering from intellectual dishonesty.

There are many redundant players in TOT, and Horjberg is not one of them. No objective person will take Jorginho over Hojberg, that guy is a complete package, not one trick pony like J5.

J5 is good but dont disrespect a better player.

I should accept that he is better because you said so? Asin your opinion is now universal knowledge? Guy go and sit down abeg.

When TOT were in a little form, players who stood out were Kane, Son and Ndombele. I shouldn't be arguing with you cos it's obvious that you are only borrowing someone else's opinion and arguement and getting likes and shares as reward..

Where was Horjberg when TOT where dropping points after Son and Kane heroics... It's a little silly to be bringing up a DM who coincidentally his first season was the most underwhelming in his current club's recent history

Only 100 accounts on Twitter and 106 accounts on Insta were reported for racist abuse against those three players. This is in a country of 70 million people. Nairaland alone will beat that record if an Igbo man or Hausa man miss penalty for Super Eagles.

The racists have started being arrested. If it's Yankee, they would have said it's freedom of speech under 1st amendment.

In the words of Mr Macaroni, Britain is doing well

How do you tackle racist abuse on social media?

The only way is ban accounts guilty of this, even at that it is difficult as people can always open new accounts.
The way nairalanders bypass bot cemsored words, it's clear that even bots wont cut it.

I didn't say my opinion is universal knowledge, however my opinion is backed by data, jorginho is a regista and he could barely best Hoejbjerg in areas of his own strength. Let's not even go to hoejbjerg's strong points as he floors jorginho there, you should be ashamed of saying Jorginho is better than hoejbjerg.

When TOT were in a little form, players who stood out were Kane, Son and Ndombele. I shouldn't be arguing with you cos it's obvious that you are only borrowing someone else's opinion and arguement and getting likes and shares as reward..
Ndombele ko, sissoko ni. Only son and kane had better influence than hoejbjerg for TOT last season. TOT fans confirmed it, check who came 3rd in TOT best player award last season. Maybe it's the same metric you use to decide Ndombele was better that you are using to say J5 is better.
At the bolded, lmaoooo, i can see that you know that cause you are in my head, you could have gone ahead to accuse me of being an alternate too. grin. You guys should learn to make points without attacking personality.

Where was Horjberg when TOT where dropping points after Son and Kane heroics... It's a little silly to be bringing up a DM who coincidentally his first season was the most underwhelming in his current club's recent history
Correlation is not causation, without hoejbjerg TOT season would have been worse, i dont need to tell you that replacing hoejbjerg with J5 would be the death of Tottenham. We really shouldn't be comparing a one trick pony who could barely beat hoejbjerg in his one trick.

I don't know if black people are getting worked up by the racism those three boys received but from my Watsapp messages I believe so.

My take is there will always be a minority of racists in any country at any time, whether that's 1% or 3% or 5%. That's why we have minority far-right groups like BNP, National Front, English Defence League and so on. As long as they stay minority, it is never a problem as they don't affect the policies of the societies we live in.

Given that these people are there, they are bound to show up on Social media. Have we counted how many racist messages were received by Rashford and co? Is it material enough for black people in the UK to make it a central theme of discuss over the last week, or is it in line with a minority population which we know exist and can never be eradicated completely. The issue for me from a statistical point of view is in some of the Watsapp videos I've seen labelling Britain a racist society because a minute number of people decided to abuse Rashford and co. Why don't we just put this down to Social Media giving everyone a voice, including the 1% of Nazis we already know exist among us?
Exactly why react to one voice booing you when there are many voices encouraging you.

sterling isn't the global superstar that people thought he would be, his stats might he impressive but nobody talks about him with reverend

I don't watch city games unless they are playing chelsea or another big team and I can tell you that sterling isn't a player that I panic when he is on the team sheet, there are players that when they aren't playing, you get excited that your chances of winning are higher, sterling isn't one, for city, only aguero and KDB had that effect

He hasn't become the world conquering global superstar that we all expected him to become

As for saka, I don't know but I will check, arsenal have had so many black players, so many, most of their legends are blacks, if any club in England can be rated as the least racist club, I will give it to arsenal, I doubt he was targeted prior to that final but I will check
you probably started watching EPL last season, the first EPL title pep won was because of Sterling's goals especially the late minute ones.

An English team?

That will be a plus to an opposing team against Chelsea. It is a no.

However, PSG is doing nice business in this summer transfer.

Well it would have been nice seeing him on a bigger stage weekly than the ligue 1, It's only in the Champions league most'll be viewing him na, But on the plus side, I think this deal has made him the highest paid goalkeeper in the world (oyel money) if I'm not mistaken and with PSG stacking up he might soon get a UCL sooner than most, But this PSG sef grin, they offered Messi a contract while on Copa duty and still want to sign varane

All of the big EPL teams already have reliable shots toppers and it is impossible for him to be second fiddle.

We will follow him bumper to bumper on weekly basis through available avenues.

PSG this coming season should be able to surpass their previous feats

Well, they are coming to the Orlando abi? They better pray nothing carry me go there because Willian go sleep with him Afro, wake up with “Gorimakpa”.
