It’s not just the internet though is it. Society’s moral compass has gone off the deep end.
Be it racist Chelsea fans, our liberal view on life- people generally doing one another over- it’s just easier to do all that from behind a computer screen.
Society isn't worse though - things are far more liberal in general, and people are most far more accepting of stuff. It's more a combination of scummy behavior being more obvious due to a contrast with the greater acceptance, plus people can do it online and not be judged personally (i.e. if you did it in your local you'd be called a knob and potentially ignored - online you can just make a new profile in the worst case).

Just look at supporters at a match loads of violence and racism in the past, versus now when it's often "just" a few scummy individuals who often get highlighted and banned after doing it.

He was racist, just to be clear. Suarez admitted he called Evra a 'ne***'.
Wasn't denying that - I was saying why LFC supported him. For the record, I think they were wrong to do so. I can also believe in LS's culture it wasn't quite as "OMG that's disgusting" as it is here. But it was still wrong. Melchett1905 said:

Quite rich coming from a fan of a club who openly supported the racist Luis Suarez with t-shirts. Be it racist Chelsea fans, our liberal view on life- people generally doing one another over- it’s just easier to do all that from behind a computer screen.

I had typed out a response to him earlier but then asked myself wtf I was doing wasting my time, so binned it.
At least our best players don't assault children, shoot children & S**g each others wives...Anyone else hoping for a miracle from Burton tonight, to take City to ET? Failing that - City win by so many they use up all their goals for the rest of the season...Anyone got any other straws for me to grab?
Good article about the season of our last title win:

Looks like Suarez is keeping an eye on us. Could you imagine him in this team, definitely fits the mold.

I do think the entry barrier that is set to get into the Liverpool squad is very high. I personally cannot see too many making the grade - there is possibly only room for 3 or 4 and unless you are something very special with amazing potential, you will likely be sold on. Kent, Woodburn, Ejaria, Ojo etc in my personal view will all likely be moved on eventually.

Ejaria and Ojo i agree for sure. I think kent is just being given game time, maybe a few appearances for us next season to put him in the shop window then shipped out like ibe, solanke etcI think woodburn might have a future, he is still very young but does need to get stronger as he looks very lightweight atm. Markovic was playing for the U23 the other night, is his contract up in the summer? Did Grujic go out on loan?
Woodburn's failed loan spell to Sheffield United in my view could well be his nail in the coffin. He has a decent career ahead of him but I doubt that is at Liverpool. He is 19 now so pretty much a man - he should have bulked out a bit by now to add that physical presence that is missing from his game. Still not quite sure what his best position is - winger or midfielder?
He will probably go out on another loan deal before the window shuts or go back to work with U23's. Next 6 months is big for him.
