Should Morrissey 'take the knee'?

It's just a hypocritical money-generating scam. America's Blacks are race-obsessed. No one else is. Do you see White Lives Matter, Hispanic Lives Matter, Asian Lives Matter, etc., groups? No. You do not. Why aren't they protesting the MANY more Blacks being killed by other Blacks in Chicago? It's obvious that Black lives do not matter when it's Blacks killing other Blacks. THAT'S where BLM's focus should be: Eliminating Black on Black murders (90%). Why isn't it?
Totally agree pal and it's the exact same in London & other major UK cities with black on black killings, hypocrisy of the highest order.
 
Yes.

If he takes a knee and apologizes to the people of China and any other people that he's shown xenophobia towards and says something along the lines of, 'I'm trying to be a better person', then, yeah. That would be a very positive move.

The Chinese just murdered a load of Indian soldiers...not forgetting infecting the entire world. f*** the Chinese.
 
Absolutely not. It's not going to score him points with anyone at this stage. There's no meaningful discussion to be had about any serious topic within this toxic climate, which has managed to appropriate every social issue to serve as a test that assesses ideological conformity to the 'party line'. If Morrissey were to 'take the knee', the backlash would be worse than if he were to keep his mouth shut and ride the whole thing out. Most people engaging in these pantomimes, who are most vociferous about their supposed support of BLM, are arguably taking part of a 'purity spiral':

“A purity spiral occurs when a community becomes fixated on implementing a single value that has no upper limit, and no single agreed interpretation. The result is a moral feeding frenzy. But while a purity spiral often concerns morality, it is not about morality. It’s about purity — a very different concept.
[…]
It is a social dynamic that plays out across that community — a process of moral outbidding, unchecked, which corrodes the group from within, rewarding those who put themselves at the extremes, and punishing nuance and divergence relentlessly. A purity spiral propagates itself through the tipping points of preference falsification: through self-censorship, and through loyalty tests that weed out its detractors long before they can band together.
[…]
Once it has gathered momentum, the dynamics of a purity spiral are those of a leaderless cult. You hold a viewpoint that privileges an abstraction of the world over the messy reality. You have a sense of mission which sets you apart from the world, and you derive social status from being holier than the next acolyte”.

The phenomena, from a sociological, neutral, perspective, is very interesting, and the article is definitely worth a read:

But back then, everyone was sold the lie that Nelson Mandela was just this innocent lovely black man that had been falsely imprisoned. Different times and gullible teenagers.
