Tweet that started it all
https://x.com/GaryLineker/status/1633111662352891908?cxt=HHwWiIC8kfCZ_aktAAAA
Officially, Linker "stepped down", but apparently he refused to apologize or take down the tweet after BBC asked him to so they suspended him.
This resulted in all of the co presenters and commentators to also "boycott"/quit for the time being

For the sneed, just look at top of /r/soccer
BBC has been taken over by fascists
Redditors are protesting the best way they can - complaining to the manager and not paying their TV loicence
Luckily there's murdoch owned Sky to take down the Tories at BBC
All in all it was a massively r-slurred move by BBC as even Jeremy Clarkson, Piers Morgan and Gary Neville all support Lineker.

Gary Lineker is an ex-England international player and until this debacle was on TV as a sports pundit. Recently he tweeted something about the bong's new migrant rules being akin to 1930s Nazi nonsense and rightoids got mad and BBC has some rule about being politically neutral or something so they kinda suspended Gary Lineker until he sorts out his social media strategy
also Gary once shat his pants while playing for England

Thanks!
Maybe I've never noticed because I'm in the middle of it...
But is politics as r-slurred as politics? Because this shit seems dumb

They both appear dumb from my POV but it's entertaining! Honestly the only reason I don't shitpost about local politics here is because I'm afraid If you're marked as a dissident it's very easy to get into trouble for posting wrongthink and we have politicians who will sue you (successfully) for something as trivial as sharing an unflattering facebook post
Like once I baited a politician of sorts on facebook with a very obvious fake account and all that and his response made it on the local news sites which made me for a while which wasn't fun lol

I guess this is why I'm an unironic free-speechcel. Speech controls always get abused... And usually by the worst people
If you ever visit the US, you should check out a couple shooting ranges. Firing off a few rounds while saying awful things is kind of freeing

Yeah thank god for your first amendment rights! Whoever's in charge will definitely try to abuse it
I'm trying to imagine a conscript here shouting awful things at the shooting range because I think I'd send him to see a shrink For us the awful things are usually said after shooting when we clean the weapons or when someone loses a firing pin and everyone is crawling on the grass trying to find it

I forget they make you guys do two years.
Maintenance should be a part of it. I hated shooting when I was a kid because it turned into a chore...

If I woke up in bongland I’d pull a Kurt Russell escape from LA and get out or die trying, holy frick.
This is no exaggeration, I’d rather be fricking homeless in the US than rich in bongland. At least you could get a job and apartment in a few weeks of manual labor and be free

American politics went through about two decades of "I'll do whatever you want, just please don't call me racist."
But we also have free speech laws, so calling people racist lost its steam when the word lost its meaning.

Finally, something I agree with burgers about, frick soccer and frick euros for calling it football.
But also watching American football is about as interesting as watching paint dry, and I once watched a cricket test live so I know what I’m talking about

Nah only a couple of days, I had tickets to the rest but I got genuinely ill and couldn’t watch the rest. The drinks were expensive as frick and the seats sucked, but it was worth it to watch Scott Boland bowl his first (this was the 2021 Boxing Day test) and contribute to a few cup snakes
