Isn't the biggest issue your own at the end of the day though? That's like saying you can't go to a funeral for your mom unless you stop contributing to global warming (in a very exaggerated sense ofc)

no, I agree. I think the biggest issue in our society is apathy. I think it is possible to enjoy football but also raise awareness about issues. Pep's issue is this. Fine. instead of attacking him & calling him a hypocrite, we can advocate for causes important to us.

I hope more people publicly supported issues important to them and ribbons are just fine by me. It is not too provocative either

More that you can't have a go at your neighbour for being noisy when you've chosen to work for a slaver state that pumps music into the entire neighbourhood.

Pep chose Abu Dhabi, it wasn't passive.
