Kurt Zouma

[olivis]

At first I thought this would be another outrage for nothing but after watching the video I am disgusted. This was disturbing animal cruelty. Glad he's seeing big repercussions

I think a millionaire throwing a racial slur at another millionaire in the heat of a game is not remotely comparable to booting a defenceless animal across the room and laughing about it, but if Zouma was White then Antonio would not be making this inane comparison in the first place. His in-group racial bias is just kicking in.

They are doing too much now imo.

You could tell 5 seconds into the Michail Antonio interview that he would say something incredibly stupid

So basically he is saying people care more about animal abuse than racial abuse?

A bit silly way to defend Zouma though. He says he doesn't accept what he has done but he seems like he doesn't care either.

It's not a competition which is worse animal abuse or human abuse. Both are bad. Both should not be accepted.

He has a point, racism sounds extreme though, but the fact that people started pushing for Zouma's sack even after he was fined 250k and had his Adidas deal terminated says a lot cause people have done worse and received far lighter punishment. I said it earlier that the punishment was going overboard

His way of defending is silly. It's like saying racism isn't bad, Nazis are bad.

Yeah, he probably did it cause of the tension that was rising, with people calling for Zouma's sack and all, cause now those talk of sack has reduced. Anyways, I reckon Zouma would've learned to respect cats now.

ffs he really thought he was saying something smart.
Is playing the victim the favorite pastime of westerners? Abusing a pet physically is any day of the week worse than calling someone a racial slur.

 

[El Gato]

That is one way to diffuse the situation Mr Antonio

 

[Messigician]

Lol

 

[Gnidrologist]

It's not his fault. He was drilled to speak that way by western libruls.

 

[feggydinho]

Humans always compare situations or events even if most people hate being compared, you always hear Cr7 vs Messi and all that so if two crimes were committed and one had worse punishment than the other, then it'll most certainly be compared cause that'll show if it was justice or something else. Adidas also seems to have raised the bar for their punishment which is good, so expect more people to question them if they end contracts with other players when they commit offenses perceived to be worse (That's just reality)

 

[Rassvet]

Feggydinho stop talking nonsense here to be contrarian.

Comparing what Zouma did to the Hazard ball boy incident? Seriously?
