Quote ="Jukesays"You are absolutely clueless!!!!
Ignore 20 other points where your wrong, and focus on a point where you know what, your wrong!
I did not throw my Weight behind the BLM UK group, in FACT I defended the club for promoting the LBGTQ movement
As far as I am aware the club haven't made ANY comments about BLM???
You and you alone said " I will not give my money to a club that inserts itself into non RL related social issues"
The only issue Wigan have made any kind of statement about is LBGTQ
So are you
1/not giving money to Wigan because you don't agree with them supporting LBGTQ?
Or
2/ Are you not giving any money to Wigan because of BLM UK - Which just to clarify they haven't yet said or done anything to support
If it's 1 then ok, but it's ridiculous
If it's 2 then ok, whatever, your not giving money to our club because of something they haven't done or said???
Let's get this straight
I'm all in favour of the club supporting the LGBTQ message - if a group of people who are from that world attach themselves to that group or form another group that uses the same message to then promote other issues such as Murder is ok, Drink Driving is ok or anything else that is abhorrent then I will not support that group, But I will support the LGBTQ Message
If the Club on restart wear the BLM message I will support them, If they donate 100k to BLM UK I won't support that, but I will still support the message.
Now I appreciate there is a whole different more nuanced conversation to be had which you seem to be incapable of having- And over on the Sin Bin there are very many different arguments & Debates being had (Which I notice your not part of).
But the original statement was :- "Im sorry but over recent times i have seen the club take a direction i do not like. I will not give my money to a club that inserts itself into non RL related social issues and i know a lot of people that feel the same way and are disgusted. I support Wigan to watch them play rugby league not to have the latest social trends forced down my throat."
So what "Social Trend" have the club shoved down your throat? and was any of that anything to do with the BLM "Message"?
As I originally said, your argument IMO is more about having a pop at IFL etc. for any reason, even when they haven't done what your suggesting.'"
Once again you are wrong. You know you are wrong and are now trying to twist this to make it an LGBTQ argument. I know your type, ive dealt with marxists for years and they always try to twist the argument when they are proven wrong. You are now trying to work towards accusing me of being anti-LGBTQ but it wont work. I am not your weak brother in law that you browbeat at the dinner table every Sunday. If i was anti-LGBTQ i wold of brought this up many months ago when the club started promoting such, i didnt, i brought it up when the club backed BLM on Facebook.
The clubs social media promoted BLM weeks ago when all the other major brands decided to jump on the bandwagon. The only reason i gave an opinion on the club promoting LGBTQ is because somebody asked me specifically about it. I simply said that i do not think Wigan should get involved in such matters, social issues are not what people go to watch RL for but that was not the intent behind my original post. You clearly threw your weight behind BLM and went straight on the attack like a rabid dog when i denounced the group. Now that major brands are trying to back away from the group, so are you.
Now perhaps Wigan did not intend to show support for the BLM group but rather they wanted to support racial equality or perhaps they did not fully understand what the BLM group really stands for? If that is the case they should come out and explain so but the silence is deafening, in which case i reserve the right to vote with my wallet.
