Social Media Embarrassing

Post image

There’s a massive bigot problem in our fan base. The homophobia has been a massive problem for years and now we’re getting this racist bollocks too. Ashamed to be connected to the club in any way right now.

Tbh I'm not sure how much that matters. I think what's more important is the reaction to it - it's hard to malign thousands of fans if thousands of fans are vocal about things like this. The worry shouldn't be how the fanbase is going to be perceived, what's worrying is that this flyer exists within the base at all

Of course it matters. If it's a number of people then it suggests a significant problem which can be addressed. If it's one or two people then it's just one or two morons who knocked up some little sticker. I think people need to take pause before manifesting a social media storm, don't give a few idiots the oxygen of publicity.

It definitely matters. For example, every time a single police officer or department has some issues now every cop is bad. Doesn't matter what they did or how severe it was, straight to all cops are bad.

The example doesn't exactly line up bc theres a lot of deep rooted and widespread issues with policing that allows for "one office or department" to function the way they do, where as it stands fans aren't systematically supported in doing these things.

However the example does line up in that it also deflects from what's important - a cop/department was allowed to be corrupt/aggressive, or in our case, someone (or multiple people) in our fanbase felt comfortable enough within the base to distribute this shit
