What an odd thing to say since I am neither American, a supporter of Trump or a disenfranchised member or the electorate. Probably best to stick to your stories about women's football and Italy. That's also incredibly dull but not as ill informed.

Very much agree with this Tim. Good post.

I just watched this and I'm surprised to find that I largely agree with him.

I suppose it's easier for some to peddle the fiction that there are more racists, homophobes and sexist than they originally thought. It allows then to continue to take the high ground and moralise to Trump supporters, little realising that it is this very attitude which caused this to happen in the first place. I predict that results like this will continue to grow until such time that the self-admitted liberal bias is addressed within the media and the concerns of Joe Public are understood and steps are taken to address some of the concerns. The uncomfortable truth for many liberal elites like Katy perry or Samuel L Jackson is that a huge number voted for Trump because they felt it was the only way that they could get their voices heard and because the prospect of Trump was a lesser evil than the thought of four more years of the status quo. That should tell you something.

Gender blender is an officially recognised gender identity in New York. I see you didn't attempt to address any of the points in my post. A number of rabid social justice warriors exist and in my view they are one of the big reasons for this backlash. Nobody likes being told how awful they are and how to vote by the likes of Amy schumer and lena Dunham. No one in America and beyond likes having their free speech curtailed like what is happening across university campuses to the likes of Jordan peterson or being subject to abuse simply for being male like Hugh mungous. Look how the red pill documentary is effectively being silenced in australia- a documentary created by a feminist with the goal of giving men's rights activists a fair hearing. The social justice warriors are a movement that has exploded in the past decade and is a large reason for the formation of the alt right which has won Donald Trump the presidency. Either you can attempt to understand why it has happened or you can dismiss everyone that voted for Trump as racist and sexist pieces of sh*t but then don't be surprised if it keeps happening across the globe.

It really is that simple in your head isn't it. Surely rather than insulting people and questioning their intelligence for voting for Trump, people should be critical of the conditions that meant that someone like Trump could get elected. How disenfranchised, ignored and stomped on must people feel to think that voting for any sort of change is preferable to keeping things the way they are. If people feel their lives are complete sh*t then telling them how sh*t things would be under Trump isn't likely to scare anyone. If the average white man is constantly told by rabid social justice warriors that everything bad in life is their fault and part of some sort of mythical patriarchy then is it any wonder that many people felt they had little to lose by trying something different. Maybe instead of pretending that everyone is a mindless sheep who loved Trump and who are all racist and sexist the best thing to do would be to actually listen to some of the valid concerns of these people and see how they can be addressed in the future. Or you know just do what most of the media are doing and call everyone foul thick misogynist racists who hate other people. The next time something like this happens the same liberal media will act with bemusement that people didn't vote the way they were told.

I think Trump is a disgusting person and personality but I think that some of the things that Hilary has done and her track record make her potentially more dangerous in the White House. Plus the type of people who support her are the odious social justice warrior types, the rabid feminists and the gender benders with 58 different pronouns who are the type of people I despise so if I were American I couldn't bring myself to be on the same side as them. I'd probably abstain or vote for a third party candidate.

[emoji23] don't be a muppet.

Ebay. Alternatively I have some I took to Milan.

A takeover from a foreigner isn't automatically a bad thing. From the little we know about these guys they don't appear to have the finance needed to be an improvement on the Liebherr family but it's too early to know for sure yet. I'm sure they wouldn't leave us in trouble.
-
Any idea who these guys are? They don't look great to me.

It's impossible you need to collect your ticket in Prague with id

Lol! He clearly is.

Some bloke got a bottle over his head on the tube but otherwise I saw no bad behaviour. A lot of people who didn't go are making a big fuss over nothing.

Yet more evidence here that fans are not as racist, sexist and homophobic as some would like to claim: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/37760114

Only the very best fans don't give a toss about inter Milan and prefer Exeter city away.
-
Saying you wouldn't have bothered is pretty dismissive as is the other poster suggesting it isn't a suitable amount.
-
It's nice that the players have chosen to contribute. We also don't know if any of them have donated more privately. Pretty ridiculous turning your nose up at £200 each purely because they earn a lot of money. I'm sure franny was grateful for the support and that's what matters.

I agree with Chris Sutton http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37700967 It's unhelpful and also unproven to say that it's difficult for someone who is gay and a footballer to come out. I have a bit more faith in the football community and like Chris Sutton I don't think it's much of an issue.

I booked my Prague flight the same day as Milan so dead chuffed to get a ticket. £80 return to Prague is a go [emoji1] -

I got one!! -
It's the personal belief bit at the bottom that I would guess most people have a problem with.

You were the one screaming rape apologist at those who felt there was more to this case. We don't know what went on in the bedroom but clearly ched Evans believed she had consented and the jury believed there was enough doubt there to overturn his conviction. There is no doubt that ched Evans has behaved like a fool but there is also no doubt that ched is no longer a convicted rapist and those like yourself who were quick to condemn those who felt that the conviction was a bit dodgy would do well to stay a bit quiet.
