Hypocritical of @thetiser.bsky.social to blame Crows & AFL for the toxic victim-blaming crowd booing of Quaynor, when it was The Advetiser who led the charge promoting a narrative framing Rankine as the victim of the AFL’s anti-homophobia agenda. The true victims are LGBTIQ+ community. Report that!
