@_toyurc@Abiodun0x I didn’t insult. The take was too egregious. The only reason why FIFA picked the US was for money. Not for filling up stadiums because league 2 games in Germany for instance have 40/50k stadiums filled up.
All this Arsenal and Knicks celebratory content has made my heart so happy admist all the doom & gloom. Not even a fan of either, just a fan of pure unadulterated community joy! So beautiful to witness always.
A few days after Idris Elba was knighted by the King, his wife was racially profiled following a car accident incident.
What makes me even more furious is listening to his recent comments about not making Bond "woke." It leaves me baffled and only confirms, in my view, that some successful Black British celebrities get confused by their proximity to power and will say almost anything to maintain it.
The level of racism that still exists in the UK is very real. With the platform Idris has, he shouldn't be using language that is so often weaponised to minimise discussions about racism and discrimination.
I'm genuinely disappointed in him.
I do wonder whether his perspective changed after seeing his wife, a woman of colour who isn't famous in her own right, experience the kind of treatment many ordinary Black people face every day.
Fame doesn't protect you from racism. It just delays the moment you realise it.
Usually I’m inspired to hustle more when I see certain areas with clusters of really rich people. Monaco was the first place I just felt poor 😂😂 no inspiration just poor 😂😂
