Premier League footballers are likely to stop ‘taking a knee’ this upcoming season after the gesture lost impact following a number of damaging revelations about Black Lives Matter.

The virtue signaling gesture began being performed in June 2020, shortly after the death of George Floyd and amidst innumerable violent riots in the United States which claimed dozens of lives.

However, despite football pundits claiming the gesture merely represented an “anti-racism” stance and had nothing to do with BLM, it was born out of police officers and other public figures displaying it to show deference to the Black Lives Matter movement.

According to media reports, the gesture is likely to be scrapped for the new Premier League season, which starts this weekend, although it could return for selected matches.

“A meeting between the 20 Premier League captains took place on Thursday with the topic of whether to keep taking the knee debated, but, after a wide variety of views, no final decision has been made and another get-together is pencilled in for this week,” reports the Telegraph.

“Clubs will hold internal discussions this week, with Newcastle reported to be talking about the issue today, and a decision is expected imminently with the top flight set to get under way on Friday when Palace host Arsenal.”

Bournemouth Football club have already decided not to have their players take a knee, asserting that the gesture “has run its course and is no longer having the effect it first did.”

England football players, led by woke manager Gareth Southgate, are however expected to continue to take a knee despite being booed for doing so by sections of their own fans.

Southgate notoriously chose black players to take crucial penalties during the Euro 2021 final with Italy, presumably in an attempt to settle the argument, but they all missed and England lost the tournament.

Of course, taking a knee has little to do with stopping racism and everything to do with forcing people to display loyalty to regime narratives. It’s a performative re-affirmation of cognitive conformity and slavish mental obedience.

Since June 2020, multiple damaging scandals have emerged proving that while being a destructive extremist movement on the ground, the leaders of Black Lives Matter are all mercenary grifters who have exploited it to enrich themselves.

As we highlighted back in April, the number of black Americans murdered has jumped by 32 per cent, with experts blaming the rise on cops not patrolling high crime areas thanks to Black Lives Matter-endorsed “defund the police” activism.

A poll conducted in November last year found that a majority of Americans opposed BLM for the first time since before the death of George Floyd.

The summer 2020 riots, described by news outlets like CNN as “mostly peaceful,” were the most damaging in U.S. history, with total insurance industry payouts exceeding $2 billion.

Creator Of Friends Apologises For Characters Being White

“I’m embarrassed that I didn’t know better 25 years ago”

One of the co-creators of the TV show Friends, perhaps the most monumentally successful worldwide global smash hit production ever, has apologised for the characters being white and pledged to give millions of dollars to black education.

Marta Kauffman told the LA Times that she finds it “painful” that all the main characters on the show were not ‘diverse’ enough for modern standards and that “Admitting and accepting guilt is not easy.”

The writer continued, “What makes this truly emotional for me is that I want this connection I didn’t have. I deeply, deeply want this connection with the black community that I didn’t have. Because of ‘Friends,’ I never attained that.”

“I’m embarrassed that I didn’t know better 25 years ago,” Kauffman continued, adding that the death of George Floyd in 2020 prompted her to realise that she had “internalized systemic racism,” and “participated” in it, and that she “needed to course-correct.”

Now, to correct her white guilt, Kauffman says she will give $4 million to fund an endowed chair in Brandeis University’s African and African American studies department.

“I’m finally, literally putting my money where my mouth is,” Kauffman said, adding “I feel I was finally able to make some difference in the conversation.”

“I’ve been working really hard to become an ally, an anti-racist. And this seemed to me to be a way that I could participate in the conversation from a white woman’s perspective,” she added.

Kauffman has also promised to correct her whitey problem in future productions.

“I have to say, after agreeing to this and when I stopped sweating, it didn’t unburden me, but it lifted me up. But until in my next production, I can do it right, it isn’t over,” she said, adding “I want to make sure from now on in every production I do that I am conscious in hiring people of color and actively pursuing young writers of color. I want to know I will act differently from now on. And then I will feel unburdened.”

Kauffman’s co-creator on Friends, Kevin Bright, was also recently asked about a lack of diversity on the show to which he replied “I would have been insane not to hire those six actors. What can I say? I wish Lisa [Kudrow] was black?” 

In a Hollywood Reporter interview, Bright explained “For the parts of Chandler and Phoebe, we saw everybody and we picked what we thought with the two best actors. There are different priorities today and so much has changed.”

    Black Americans Murdered Jumps 32 Per Cent Thanks to Black Lives Matter

    Experts blame “defund the police” activism for scaring cops away from high crime areas.

    The number of black Americans murdered has jumped by 32 per cent, with experts blaming the rise on cops not patrolling high crime areas thanks to Black Lives Matter-endorsed “defund the police” activism.

    “The number of black Americans murdered in 2020 jumped by 32 percent – with an expert blaming BLM protests for the huge spike by scaring-off cops,” reports the Daily Mail.

    “Killings across (every) racial demographic have swelled by 30 percent between 2019 and 2020, the largest increase since 1905, but blacks have borne the larger impact of that deadly trend, according to the FBI’s Uniform Crime report.”

    The phenomenon has become a common trend and first came to prominence in the aftermath of the 2014 Ferguson riots, which is why it is known as ‘the Ferguson effect’.

    Hannah Meyer, from think-tank the Manhattan Institute, says “defund the police” movements supported by BLM have worsened the murder rate.

    “Certainly, the protests and riots mid-2020 followed a pattern of spiking violence that we’ve seen following past viral police incidents, such as the deaths of Michael Brown and Freddie Gray,” Meyer told Fox News. “This pattern has been termed the ‘Ferguson Effect’: police pull back while violent crime spikes precipitously.”

    According to FBI statistics, African-Americans accounted for 55.9% of all homicide offenders in 2019, despite representing only 13 per cent of the population. The overwhelming majority of murdered black people are killed by other blacks.

    “The blood is on the hands not only of Black Lives Matter, but of the liberal establishment for promoting its sociopathic agenda,” writes Dave Blount.

    “Having largely caused this crisis, liberals want to address it by disarming law-abiding citizens, leaving them defenseless in the face of emboldened criminals who will of course remain armed.”

    While Black Lives Matter may have served the opposite purpose to its stated mission of protecting black lives, its founders haven’t done badly for themselves.

    As we previously highlighted, BLM co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors chose to live in one of the whitest areas of California after purchasing a $1.4 million dollar home in an area that has a black population of just 1.6 per cent.

    Allies and critics have questioned where the money has gone, queries that intensified after it was revealed that BLM leaders secretly bought a $6 million dollar mansion in a way meant to blur the lines “between the charity and private companies owned by some of its leaders.”

    All of this once again underscores how BLM is just one huge grift, while the impact of its activism only serves to put more black people in danger while deepening division in society.

    Despite the suspect’s innumerable hateful and violent anti-white social media posts, the media quickly moved to dismiss a racial or political motive behind the Brooklyn subway attack.

    Gee, I wonder why?
