"She's got chlamydia" is the alleged chant

[–] SentientChowMein@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Googling, it looks like this is a thing sometimes chanted at women during football matches? Is this true?

Does anyone have any information? It seems random and odd to me, and I think I am missing the gender angle on it, given that anyone can have chlamydia, and also it is easily treated.

[–] XHeraclitusX@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I agree, it's a bizarre and shitty thing to be chanting at someone but it isn't misogynistic.

Stay classy

More “hurty words” prosecutions. Jesus H Christ what a time to be alive

[–] d_smogh@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Jesus H Christ what a time to be alive

If only he was. He's probably turning in his grave.

What do you think H stands for?

[–] I_am_zlatan1069@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Would it be Ho? Since apparently the 'virgin' Mary gave birth to him.

Joseph was obviously one gullible bastard.

Remember the final erasure of all forms of freedom of speech is what the ghouls orchestrating this nightmarish society dream of. They do not care an iota about “misogyny”

[–] Ezekiiel@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

We do not have “freedom of speech” in the UK

[–] jesus700@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

People getting arrested for this sort of stuff seems a bit much.

[–] srtpg2@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Bit? It’s fully Orwellian

[–] TheOtherOther0ne@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

In the words of Jesus himself, I agree

[–] Kenny_dies@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

It’s Orwellian if you ask me (and a bunch of other commenters)

[–] chloezinha77@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I agree that the US style of free-speech where they let big media outlets villainize minorities is wrong, but this seems a bit too soft to arrest people over too.

[–] effervescentrist@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

they let big media outlets villainize minorities

What do you mean by this

[–] snoocs@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Have you heard of Fox News?

[–] chloezinha77@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Fox News spreading fake bullshit which leads to these minorities losing civil rights

[–] VagP22@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Boys, it turns out I'm getting the death penalty

[–] greezyo@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

England is a bit of a fascist shithole nowadays

[–] make_thick_in_warm@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Saudi league better for fans of misogyny anyways

[–] TigerBasket@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Children of men was based on just if England kept pace with what they were doing.

[–] wreckedham@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Our parties don't agree on much until it comes to reducing civil liberties

[–] ThatIsVasilyGrossman@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

"P A L A C E

Stevey Coppel has VD

Nick nack paddywhack, give a dog a bone

Crystal Palace, fuck off home"

Would the police arrest a female fan for singing this? Would they fuck.

[–] thedudeabides-12@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Getting arrested is a bit much way worse is being chanted at every single footie game that's fcking ridiculous...

[–] Jor94@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Lets get the arrests out for all the misandrists chanting the referees a wanker week in week out

[–] smala017@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah the double standard here truly is remarkable.

[–] myersjw@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Can someone be arrested for chants in support of Palestinians?

[–] Chaz_Carlos@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Reddit in general unfortunately

[–] FunIrishBean@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Haven’t seen any of that. Most of Reddit is extremely vocally pro-Palestine.

[–] Actual_Physics@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Depends on the subreddit

[–] thejackalreborn@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

This is completely and utterly absurd. Two 17 year olds with an incredibly mild chant. Imagine being the police officer wasting your time with this. Just tell the kids to stop chanting it and move on.

[–] Planet_Funk99@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

She’s trying to do her job and shouldn’t have to face abuse for it. If most of you ( or your mum, sister, girlfriend, wife) were abused everyday at work by complete strangers then you’d have a completely different viewpoint.

[–] GarfieldDaCat@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah no one is saying the chant is ok, they’re saying it’s absurd they’re getting arrested for it.

Male refs get called things just as bad like 100+ times per game lol?

No one is arresting people over it.

[–] Planet_Funk99@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I’m assuming those downvotes come from those who were left at the dogs home back door as a day old baby because there were no dustbins handy.

[–] AlcoholicJizzThrower@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

What ever happened to free speech?

[–] UrMumGoesDoggin@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Britain doesn't have it.

It has freedom expression (apparently), butbthebpolice arrest people for freedom of expression also.

[–] Razzle_Dazzle08@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago
[–] Crossx1993@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

i keep seeing news of uk police getting more and more involved in things the police shouldn't be involved with in the first place,where this is going?

[–] FuriousBeard@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Imagine knowing your tax dollars are being spent on police resources arresting teenagers for saying a football referee has chlamydia. England is fucked.

[–] tryCharlie@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Great. But when they call a male referee a cunt it is not sexism anymore… smh 🙄

[–] Lurkay1@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oi, you got a loicense for that misogyny?

[–] UrMumGoesDoggin@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Ironically it seems we don't.

[–] Wide_Challenge3880@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Ban them from the ground but arresting people for this kind of thing is awful and a super slippery slope

[–] maxime0299@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Getting arrested over something like this is outrageous. Meanwhile you’ve got actual criminals running around freely.

[–] Spin_Critic@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

When I think back to some of the chants you'd hear in the men's game. It just puts this into perspective.
