No and I won't stop making that argument cause it's true.

Allowing one thing but not the other is not okay. 

It just comes off as if you’re bringing down the issue of Black Lives Matter with that argument. You almost sound like you’re saying, “oh they’ll have blacks but not gays?”. Instead, find a way of making your argument without seemingly tear down black people. Might not be your intention but it sure is coming off that way.

The member below said it well. A valid question without bringing into question BLM:

This shows we still have a lot of fighting to do.

How can UEFA refuse when they are trying to stamp out homophobia in football? 

This decision baffles me. 

But yes, agree with the fact that this is ridiculous. We’re never gonna make any progress if we keep giving in to the demands of homophobes. I wonder how the situation would have turned out of the arena had refused to turn off the lights. If they were protesting Hungary’s anti LGBT laws, it would have been a powerful statement to have kept the lights on for the Hungarian team. Instead they just gave in. And their quote about not wanting politics in sport is even more infuriating. It’s never political until it involves minorities.

Disgusting and they should be banned from playing for this. 

Hmm , are you racist? First, you said you don’t want to be friends with middle easterners and now this  What does BLM have to do with this? Players should protest but don’t diminish racial issues if you are white. 

I literally said I am fine with it but are y'all really failing to see the hypocrisy of UEFA to allowing support for BLM but refusing support for LGBTQ+?! I really don't know why it's so hard for you to see.

Also. That one person trying to claim there aren't gay footballers is the most ignorant comment I ever read.

How this makes me a racist is beyond my mind. I literally said no bad thing about BLM only that UEFA is hypocrite for allowing the one thing but not the other.

 But yeah sure. I am the enemy.

I was trying to point out the hypocrisy by UEFA. BLM can be seen as "political" just as LGBTQ+ matters can be. I didn't mean in ANY WAY I care more or less than for LGBTQ+ but tried to focus the attention at UEFA's hypocrisy with this argument.

I am personally not sure how that sounds like I don't care for BLM since I don't say a single bad thing about it but I do care.

I guess it's a language thing since I am not a native English speaker and this seems to be as I am failing to express myself correctly.

I do aplogize if anyone felt offended but I am however not apologizing for saying UEFA are hypocrites cause they 100% are imo and the attached facebook photo should prove that they are.

Who said otherwise? 
You sound like a gay trump fan, “if black people have rights why can’t the gays?” Holding Racial issues down to justify hypocrisy. What have you done for the issue? I have been actively spreading and speaking on the issue on social media.

You previously said you won’t date or be friends with any middle easterners cause they bullied you and now this, if you don’t see the problem with all of this then you have a lot of work to do with yourself. I see a trend.. anyway have a good evening, i will go back to activism

I said I won't date or befriends muslims cause they scarred me for life with their bullying and left me traumatized. You act as if I want them dead lmao. I choose whoever I date or have as friends and that doesn't make me a racist.

Let them have equal rights. I am 100% pro that. Just don't want them (muslims) into my life as I am still traumatized by the events caused by many of them.

At least I dare to come out and talk about my trauma and I don't need you to judge me for a trauma I DID NOT ASK FOR!!!!

Also never said anything about black people.

I wish I didn't have to feel this way. I wish I never had to go through what I had to. Not to get slammed by you that don't know about what happened to me.

So stop putting words in my mouth. Thank you!

You are the one who said on it an online forum and was proud of it. Writing in all caps won’t make you less racist

Those are your words and you just repeated them 

I am sorry for what happened but you can’t justify xenophobia and racism. 
I almost got hate crimed for holding my bf’s hand by a black man few weeks ago, I never feared for my life. I would never never think of being racist because of that. Whether you like it or not you are racist and maybe you should unlearn it on you are own way.
