fantastic. the british/western elite have decided that South American language conventions are not allowed in the name of “defeating racism”


'anti-racist' lefty CULTure getting way out of hand.

Another three years of all the players getting on their knees should help fix this 'racism'

It's a disgrace if he ends up being fined, let alone banned from playing.

It's nothing like Suarez's case as he meant that in derogatory term towards opposition player.

In that case, Suarez was just referring to Evra as a South American language convention

I sure hope you're not trying to creatively rewrite history there of how repulsive human being Suarez is

Quote

"As for the aggravating factors, Mr Suarez used the word "negro" or "negros" seven times, in the course of an
acrimonious argument, and went beyond simply addressing Mr Evra as "negro".
Mr Suarez knew or ought to have known that these words were unacceptable,
particularly in view of the FA-supported campaigns against all forms of racism
in football. The words were targeted directly at Mr Evra, as part of Mr Suarez's
attempts to wind him up."

"We received expert evidence as to the use of the word "negro" in Uruguay and other areas of Latin America.

It is often used as a noun to address people, whether family, friends or passers-by, and is widely seen as inoffensive.

However, its use can also be offensive. It depends on the context. It is inoffensive when its use implies a sense of rapport

or the attempt to create such rapport."

Most Liverpool fans I know regret supporting Suarez back then and find it odd now that the club and players even backed him. Dark period for Liverpool, that.

I completely agree. There is a clear and massive difference in how the language was used. Racial insults vs common term of affection.
A ban for this would be absurd, but its clear what direction they have chosen. There shouldn't even be some ominous 'investigation' over a thankful and clearly innocent instagram post.

suarez told evra “i kicked you because you are black, and i don’t speak to blacks” in Spanish.

not even remotely the same as cavani’s situation. not surprised scousers are still defending suarez the racist cannibal bully though *LAUGH OUT LOUD*

But still, isn't Evra black ?

It's not racism, it's the reality.

Of course it's a different situation, Suarez said it in the heat of the moment and Cavani did it cold as ice after a game.
