Fair enough. I will let you be then, and be an ally to those in my non-social-media life.

I really don't see where you get that in the article. Which part presents the victims as historical or authoritarian....
It also doesn't seem to have any selectivity in consideration. So same question, why do you say it selectively ignores people it doesn't want to defend?

I am sorry...I did not intend to trigger such a response. Honest apology - am not being sarcastic.
However, I also don't think sane people would disagree with you on the above. The article points to lots of examples where differences of opinion, which won't result in death, are being prosecuted.

Surely it's obvious the article is about a lot more than Connelly?
And I agree with you on Connelly, full-heartedly. But so does the article, btw - it explicitly says so, if you haven't read it due to the pay wall.
So let's agree on Connelly and consider the other examples.

Are those the only examples in the article?

Great post. But it's not just him. The whole org, minus Eberl, is led by people not fit to lead a top-3 in Europe club. It is no surprise that we are falling further behind in the global pecking order.

Erfolgreich domestically - ja. Top 3 in Europa - unwahrscheinlich. Winning the BL is like PSG winning Ligue 1 - not that valuable.
Losing Wirtz is another signal of falling further behind the European elite as a club. We even have to grossly overpay Tah just to get him to stop waiting for Barca.

Exactly, great point. And the so-what is that we should be pouring money to bring the Frauen team to the world top, because money is being poured into Frauen football. It's relatively low investment in a surging, fairly empty market.

Lovely FCB fans. Open your eyes and face reality. All facts point to that we are not a top-5 club anymore. Both in football terms and as an organisation. And we are falling further behind, being now surpassed by PSG. We can debate the reasons, but should accept the facts first. Long road ahead.

Replying here, too.
You don't need to have been targeted by a hate mob to be able to raise questions about freedom of speech. Why so quasi-elitist?
The examples in the article seem likely overreach, of the kind that alienates people and reduces trust in law enforcement. Don't ignore them.

While I agree with you on the US, the FT article makes very valid points. Ignoring them loses elections, all around the western world.

The guy is hardly shining at a very junior Nationalmannschaft level. What hype are we talking about...

Brave prediction: he transitions to CB, shines there and ends up signing a new contract after all.
