This, in a Manchester United thread, is tenuously amazing.

Cancel culture is crazy and its absolute nonsense

When people need warning continuously about every insignificant thing that might be slightly upsetting, then society has become so fragile we won’t leave the house.
This isn’t slowing down either, it’s escalating everywhere.
It’s absolutely ridiculous.

I’ve left the house three times today already.
Seriously, what difference does it make to YOU?
If you’re happy with people being cancelled for calling out the rampant stupidity of a very loud minority, then that’s fine, but I’m not.
It’s not just making a difference to me, it’s making a difference to everyone.
As John Cleese, Steven Fry, Graham Linehan and various other left leaning writers have said in recent interviews, people are getting censored or cancelled because a few people are offended.
We’ve got a situation where freedom of speech is being limited by a small minority of left wing nutters.
Both Oxford and Cambridge are banning any speeches by people they don’t consider woke enough and the students of these universities consider themselves to be elite.
So if they can’t debate with opposing views and would rather ban them, how is that a good thing?

If people want to continue the current convo about how seconds long content warnings are cancel culture gone mad:
We’ll close this thread and re-open in a bit so discussion in here can refocus on how United are a bunch of cunts, and not all this other extremely off topic stuff.

This is google translate of part of the Globo story.
DJ and digital influencer Gabriela Cavallin filed a police report on Monday against Manchester United player Antony for domestic violence, threat and bodily injury. The case was registered at the 5th Police Station for the Defense of Women - East, in Tatuapé.
Wanted, the defense and the representatives of the player have not yet manifested themselves.
According to the document, which ge and TV Globo had exclusive access to, Gabriela said she was attacked during the month of May and decided to register this Monday. In the BO, the aggression is dated May 20, when Antony was in England. Sought, the DJ confirmed the record of the occurrence, but did not clarify whether the alleged aggression was committed in Manchester or in Brazil.
Gabriela also requested an urgent protective measure and had a forensic examination requested. According to the report, the DJ and influencer suffered previous attacks and attached photos of abrasions and threatening messages to the Police Report.

I mean it’s nonsensical to think there is an individual in Qatar with access to vast sums of wealth that would allow them to buy a club as big as Manchester United without there being obvious links to Al-Khelaifi.
Clear as day he’s being used as the front for the Qatari state takeover

We are just too far down the road. Sort of good in one way because something gotta give soon.
What the fallout is though is anyones guess.

Sure, but the EPL loves some shady Rooskie oil money and have other middle east nation states/terrorist financing/human rights violators sportwashing with other clubs in the league, so why would they care if one owns Man U?

Whoever the owner, there will always be links to other shady business providing a part of the funds. It’s an international issue, but especially true in the Middle east.

The investigation will be faster than a VAR check and the takeover will be approved by bent over officials.
