Zouma has dropped out of the starting eleven due to feeling unwell on 11:39 - Feb 14 by chicoazul | Where have I specifically told someone, anyone, advocating for what you say they are advocating for, that they are engaged in groupthink? And you talk to me about reading. |
Watch this and learn Chico. You are correct, you didn’t make a specific comment. See that was easy. “ I disagree with you and people like you although I know many people find groupthink very comforting.” But, you brought up groupthink, in the context of our discussion. You also, earlier, incorrectly characterised my posting. And your language on your initial OP was of course, where I started out. Your reluctance to be specific when using insulting terms, such as smoothbrain, and just stick to weasel words, is just going encourage people to infer things. I like to be specific. I am not worried about you. I find you a source of amusement. Would you like some articles on how to be more precise and specific when discussing topics? |  | |  |

Zouma has dropped out of the starting eleven due to feeling unwell on 12:04 - Feb 14 by chicoazul | Someone who supports horse racing, a sport where animals are tortured and raced for our amusement, ought to step away from this entire argument and definitely not talk about empathy. |
"A sport where animals are tortured". Yet a sport where 1 or more vets are in attendance at every meeting, but never step in to stop it. A sport which the RSPCA regularly watch but never step in to stop it. Sh1t out of your arse, as per |  |

I can’t help what people infer, they can infer what they like. All anyone has to do is ask me a direct question as many people in this thread have and I’ll answer. The context of our discussion is around Zouma. I haven’t said anything about veagnisim and have no idea why you brought it up other than you thought it was clever to do so. If you’re not worried about me I have no idea why you keep trying to educate me for I think the third time now? |  |

“In British racing the use of a foam padded, air cushioned whip is permitted, with strict controls on its use.” Whipping animals is torture. I’d quite rightly get in trouble if I whipped my dog in front of ten thousand people yet at Aintree it’s ok. |  |

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2011/oct/18/jockeys-whip-didnt-hurt "A jockey whipped me 'as hard as I'd hit a horse' and it didn't hurt" 'Racing insiders claim their foam-cushioned whip is designed to produce noise, not pain. Our reporter put it to the test'. The RSPCA removed this cat (and thousands of others, ditto dogs) because of the cruelty involved. They don't routinely remove racehorses from owners because the owners race them. Your desperation is showing. [Post edited 14 Feb 2022 12:29]

When you did manage to be specific you stated, “ I disagree with you and others like you, rubbing your hands with delight at the chance to tear someone down.” That is not what I have done on this topic. I have discussed this topic from my vegan perspective. Can you show me where I have “ delighted at the chance to tear someone down”, on this topic, or indeed others? Does that help you understand? |  | |  |

I see on the news today that some show jumping hero decided it was fine to beat a horse in the style of Basil Fawlty giving his untrustworthy Austin 1100 a damn good thrashing. I’m sure it was another isolated incident and all horses that choose to enter the sporting arena are treated like royalty… |  | |  |

Yes the horse in question had the audacity to refuse a water jump. The moron dishing out the thrashing was 65 years of wasted oxygen. |  | |  |

He loves all horses and animals equally and believes in total respect between rider and beast… Unless it doesn’t do what he damn well wants, in which case he’ll thrash it with a stick so that some pillock in a dressage suit wins a bit of shiny metal. Exactly the same mentality that pervades at racing stables. But they get a heated hut and a decent meal, so those who can’t live without their £2 each way get to feel all warm and cosy as they fund wholesale cruelty whilst living in blinkered denial.. £20 to RSPCA if Ryorry or Rommy avoid mashing the downvote key in indignant outrage… |  | |  |

OK, I'll bite. I expressed my abhorrence on twitter hours ago of that waste of space abusing the horse. No right-minded animal lover would condone him or his behaviour. Particularly stupid, out-dated & upsetting way of "training" any animal. As far as racing's concerned, you're just 100% ignorant & obviously completely disinterested in hearing the facts about racing. I've been visited dozens of racing stables behind the scenes in my time, and would immediately whistle-blow any wrong-doing, abuse or cruelty I heard or saw. Never yet had any reason to do so. You & I have got on OK for the last year or so, so please stop inventing stuff & "mashing" your device's keys with propaganda, you haven't a clue what you're talking about. Oh, and I've never bet "£2 each way". These days I do £0.50p e/w half a dozen times a year, if that. |  |

It's quite impressive how you manage to come down onto the wrong side of every discussion. The poor premier league footballer has to put up with some booing due to a cowardly attack on a defenceless animal. How will he ever cope? |  |
