The media wants to dictate what is and what isn't offensive, good on Onana

[–] HanshinFan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Onana: "This matter should go no further"

Reddit: 320 comments and counting

How dare you! FA has a final say! /s

[–] parmesanandhoney@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This the year 2046, the contract of United striker Castello has been cancelled because of his social media post containing a yellow smiley emojis which is viewed as an insult to the Chinese community.

[–] stoneandnjpwfan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Manfuctured rascim is undermining real racism and its effect

I'll stay it once and again

[–] MentalJack@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That should put this matter to bed, it won't, but it should.

[–] SanitizexHands@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Garnacho isn’t racist but why is everyone acting like racists don’t equate black people to primates? Isn’t it Eugenics 101?

[–] Sandalo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You can't stop the virtue signalling train!

[–] Magnific3nt@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is the biggest issue in todays society, someone getting offended on other behalfs.

[–] qwerty1519@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This should be all that is heard of it.

[–] LunarRaven7@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not really racist, araujo refers to himself with the gorilla emoji.

[–] shoxjr@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Thats like saying: Black people call themself nig*** all them time. Hence why I called him that

[–] KOKO69BISHES@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

If you ignore all the context and historical significance around it, sure, same thing

[–] Sapaio@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

FA: You've offended Onana.

Onana: No he didn't.

FA: ...How dare you??

[–] ProfessorBeer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

“This matter should go no further” that’s a man right there. Onana swings his own sword.

[–] JAYZ303@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

swings

Is that a racist metaphor? Banned.

[–] pilgrim05@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

and it's a massive sword too

[–] FauxGenius@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This a fair and reasonable take.

[–] More_You_681@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Classy response on Onana’s part.

Respect 🫡

[–] Educational-Wafer112@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’m not sure why everyone here is mad about people perceiving gorilla as a racist remark

Like yeah out of context it would look like a racist remark to me too

People are aware of history

[–] aro_plane@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Such a non story. Maybe the FA should focus on real issues, not imagined ones.

[–] VValtherB@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Focus is on this BS instead of Onanas performance and single handed winning the game in the last minute.

[–] bigfurryllama@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Obviously not racist or motivated by racism and will be blown out of proportion but jesus fucking christ any danger of just some common sense?

[–] el_corso@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

All I know is according to FIFA all you mfr’s who are discussing this topic need to be banned for 10 months a minimum! 😂

[–] RepeatDTD@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Done and done.

[–] karnnumart@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Didn't he mean "beast" or something? Are we really gonna ban people over Emoji? Then allowing these emoji to exist in the first place is racist then.

[–] boomer959@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

FA is just a bunch of over-pretentious fellas.

[–] as017@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

FA bans Onana for defending racism

[–] sonnydabaus@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Do people really think he would be racist towards his own teammate? Lol

[–] jasonketterer@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Every human is an ape.

[–] redditsuckz99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Sad monke noises

[–] iEatPastaForaLiving@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Bissouma uses the gorilla emoji in lots of tweets, and it’s in his Twitter name 🦍❤️

[–] captsubasa25@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The problem is that the FA operates without critical thinking and is coming purely from a white, British-American ethnocentric view of the world. These old dying boomers will benefit from a cultural awareness class.

[–] turdy_tree_n_a_turd@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Serious question here... So where's all the fuss about Kobe and Black mamba and Auba and Black Panther?

[–] evilbob99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Is this not enough to close the matter

[–] ashwinsalian@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Appropiating Latinos is more racist that whatever Cavani & Garnacho supposedly did.

[–] Nofap_du_Plessis@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This stuff posted by a team mate/friend is harmless and in good spirit.

If same stuff is posted by a opposition player or a fan, it becomes terribly offensive and racist.

That's the truth. The duality of interpretation is ironical.

[–] HansAlan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Welcome to politically correct era Onana...it sucks I know :)

[–] pork_chop_expressss@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago
[–] stpstrt@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I wish people compared me to a gorilla. Unfortunately I’m more like a macaque.

[–] JohnnySnow99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Where is this gonna end? Why are people so sensitive? Im done 😓

[–] Ficnkle@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

What the FA doesn't know is that Garnacho is actually a peronist and he is calling Onana a gorilla for voting for Milei.

[–] NachoMartin1985@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I'd say that the FA might be racist for considering a pic with a gorilla emoji racist.

[–] Sirdystic1@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Someone needs to explain uk law to him. It doesn’t matter if the recipients is offended, if someone else sees, or overhears something and THEY are offended, your nicked

[–] hoochiscrazy_@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Just to add, when I saw the post I thought the 2 gorillas referred to Onana AND Maguire. I read it as him calling them beasts basically

[–] PocketFullOfRondos@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is the best response. I'm sorry you assumed he was racist when he posted a monkey

[–] Kaisah16@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Common sense prevails (hopefully).
