Mozz - // However they, or anyone else supports the movement, people will find reason to criticize them. If they, as you think they should, stop now, then that shows that this whole thing wasn't about systematic racism, but solely about George Floyd. //
As a matter of fact, I do understand the concept of protesting abd systematic racism, but the fact that it was done in the wake of the George Floyd murder made sure that it was forever associated with that dreadful crime - and not the wider issue of racism itself.
It became a weak and rather self-concious copy of a symbolic gesture, with fans not seeing it as a statement about an evil in the world, but as a protest about an incident that happened several thousand miles away, so the essential connection that makes the gesture meaningful was lost before it even began.
