It takes a special kind of person to go to the African continent and show support for someone who was OK with racist and slavery views. The Rwandian children watching is so ironic.

Spanish Government replies to the UCI's statement, pointing out that the UN has just declared Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide. Brutal final words: "Peace without justice is peace in the graveyard."

A political statement is always fine if it supports the forces of capital.
Matters of human life and dignity are where the controversy arises.

Endangering riders aside - which they didn't today - protests DEFINITELY have a place in sports. Protests NEED to be disruptive. The NEED to enter into people's everyday life and disrupt them. They are not supposed to be nice and pleasant, they are about VISIBILITY. And thus they DO belong in sport.
