Never intentional I'm not defending anything. It's just the modern world. You'd think he's went and beat the wee lad to a pulp. Someone has goaded him and stuck a phone in his face and he's slapped it away. Wee lad will get a new phone and some cash. Ronaldo says sorry. We move on.

Nobody Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I for one has never smashed someone else's phone, so it's not quite true that we all do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's similar to the initial reactions to the Will Smith thing (which quickly swung the other way)- a weird normalisation of violence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also haven't been in the situation where you've had an awful day at work and someone has goaded you and stuck a phone in your face to record your reaction, have you?

Entirely different. A comedian making a relatively harmless joke gets a full force slap to the face while he's working isn't the same as someone getting a slap on the wrist.

It's a culture thing at Man United where you believe you can treat people however you like because of your "status". Numerous examples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 The lad was stood there with his phone pointing down at the time the fucking weirdo smashes it to the floor. Like, this poor kid was just filming players from both teams leaving the field. Probably really happy to have the opportunity after his team got a massive 3 points, albeit predictably against a shite opposition, then a fully grown man strops past and smashes his phone. Unbelievable. Even more unbelievably, this is being defended? Fuck me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) Just Literally defends Ronaldo smashing a child's phone and then says "I'm not defending him." It isn't being overblown.

David Edgar Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Honestly, even if that kid was stood on Ronaldo's angry toes, you still wouldn't abide the phone being smashed Unhinged Man Utd player furious at the thought of the conference league smashes small child's phone.

You doubled down and told someone they had to "do better" when they pulled you for using it to troll. I look forward to your inevitable defence of Greenwood when more of that story becomes clear.
