Colleague (fucking talkback radio host, of all things, who has only pivoted to "wokeness" in the last few years, like an anti-Tucker or something) trying to get the guy (i.e. the fan) sacked:
What the psychotic woke rugby "fans" online claim to think about this (while slagging off working class rugby league fans in the process for being "uncultured and uncouth. We wouldn't want to be like them, now would we?" Because of course):
I hate this stupid sport. I hate the fucking team. I hate the English team. My parents (no one is going to be surprised by this), though? They fucking love Rugby Union, and the woke Wallabies, insist on watching every game "as a family", and genuinely argued this morning that Eddie Jones was in his right, to threaten to fight the fan over this, and that this whole... Clusterfuck, is entirely reasonable. Because of course they did...
And then proceeded to slag off tradesmen for the next 20 minutes or so, for being "selfish, arrogant and insular", while telling me how I should "celebrate" increasing Muslim immigration into their state (because the ABC tells them that is what they should think)...
I'm not sure what the American equivalent to this sort of... "Hyper woke" sports environment is. The NFL, to an extent? Sure, but I think this is objectively worse...
I've only seen this sort of shit in your stupid fucking basketball (sorry, fans), which has now exported its horrendously toxic woke race and gender politics to over here, even down to the level of my hometown. Not city. Even more local than that. A town of less than 50k people, and yet, even here, basketball is like this, and divides the community along these lines...
Fuck basketball, honestly. Not the sport itself, per se (I played a bit, at school, after all), but the stupid fucking woke "politics" that follow it, at an organisational/managerial and team level, everywhere it manages to get its claws into.

I was a basketball fan for 25+ years.
This is why I quit.
NBA then MLB. Football may be the least woke at this point
