First of all, it's sportsball, which is full of rich, uneducated white men selected only for their hard work and genetic superiority.
Second, this "kick a Nazi" clip is Eric Cantona, a French national playing for Man U. The incident took place in 1995. Cantona is 58 and retired in 1997.
Cantona had been suspended from the game prior to this incident for an infraction on the field. A British fan allegedly yelled at him "Go back to France!", which spawned this assault.
There's no evidence other than retconning that this is "kicking a Nazi" beyond an unhinged wealthy athlete with rage issues committing a felony.
The left is schizo in choosing their idols and heroes.
In 2011, Cantona said that the attack on Simmons was "a great feeling" and a memory he is happy for fans to treasure, but "... it was a mistake".[74]...In retrospect, Simmons' behavior that provoked Cantona's kick would a decade later be regarded as racial abuse which almost certainly would have forced the partial or full closure of Crystal Palace's stadium, as well as meriting Simmons a considerably lengthier sentence.[76]
What the fuck happened to England? Thanks, I hate it.
More recently when Paul Pogba's Manchester United teammate Marcus Rashford was racially abused on social media,[77] and ex-footballer Garth Crooks said that "[i]f something drastic is not done soon…" there could be an incident between a player and a fan, similar to Cantona's kung-fu kick on the offensive fan in 1995.[78]
Yeah, or successful athletes could practice a bit of restraint like adults and not assault sports fans for words. Sticks and stones, and all that. But it's totally the fans' faults for being mean, when they get kicked in the face.
Let's all fucking chill here with the authoritarianism and pathetic babyish whining too. England, and the West, get your fucking shit together. This is pathetic.
...In an away match against Crystal Palace, Cantona was sent off by the referee for kicking Palace defender Richard Shaw, after Shaw had frustrated Cantona throughout the game by closely marking him.[57] As he was walking towards the tunnel, Cantona launched a 'kung-fu' style kick into the crowd, directed at Palace supporter Matthew Simmons, who had run down 11 rows of stairs to confront and shout abuse at Cantona. Simmons was alleged to have used the words "Fuck off back to France, you French bastard".[57] Cantona followed the kick with a series of punches.[59][60][61]
Yeah. Dude got sent off for kicking someone for...playing soccer in a way that inconvenienced him playing soccer. Then immediately launched himself into the crowd to assault someone else. No mention of Nazis...although the fan does seem to have his own issues. Ahhhh...soccer.
...The fan that Cantona kicked, Simmons, went on trial separately where he claimed that he only shouted "Off! Off! Off! It's an early bath for you, Mr Cantona!", but was found guilty of abusive behavior and handed a £500 fine and banned from the stadium for a year. Immediately after the verdict was proclaimed, Simmons then assaulted prosecutor Jeffrey McCann, for which he was sentenced to a week in jail, plus an additional £500 fine as well as £200 in legal costs.[65][66]
Yeah, I was going to ask. I don't know what happened, but it looks like he was just angry after getting a penalty, and got heckled or something. Whether or not that guy was a Nazi, the player is behaving like a violent jackass...so of course leftist Redditors love him now, I guess.
Such a strange example to champion.

No one who has actually live in the vicinity of these people has a positive view of them. They're not known as Perfidious Albion without cause.

LOL.
It's "he said NIGGER" but for white people.
Worse.
He called him French.
Calling a worthless sperg like Cantona French is an insult to the French... as you can see in this video, he sure acts like an Albionite.

I like your breakdown better.
