Ok, will need some education here...
how does this song differ from the other racist chants about other countries?
I mean,
English to the Swedish 'you're sh111t, but yer birds are fit'
the German bombers song?
I raised something on the Leeds thread a while ago.. we have an Italian player... "he eats spaghetti, drinks Moretti, his c8cks f8cking massiiiiiive"... that song is racist on a couple of levels... 1. we're insinuating all Italians eat spegetti etc, and 2. we're insinuating that because he's a black lad, he has a massive c8ck. the press/media never mentioned anything about the Italian part.
isn't the meaning racist 'to discriminate against another race' right?.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably the same reason people will dress up as Mario but won’t do black face.
-----------------------------------------------------------
not sure you got question mate, was a genuine question
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well none of your examples question the nationality of people involved simply because they’re black.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I know a lot of Asian lads who identify as British Asian.
At 1 point people used to refer to Black Americans as African Americans.

Oh, so you do realise the chant is referring to France's black players specifically.
And you also know about the "run well" stereotype. Famously used by racists to suggest black people are known for their athleticism rather than their brainpower.
So, what's the issue? Why can't you and other people see that this is a racist chant?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Colour isn't mentioned.
As for Black players running well, take a look at the best marathon runners and sprinters. The large majority will be Black.
Many of you seem to want the only definition of racism to be a guy wearing a KKK costume with swastikas and screaming "nigg@, nigg@, nigg@"".

Not sure if you're being deliberately obtuse, or you're REALLY this thick, but a song claiming that French players have Nigerian fathers and Cameroonian mothers and born in Angola, but their passport says French is really just saying that all those French players of African heritage (which is most of the team) are basically fake French people. It's pretty clearly racially derogatory. Many of you seem to want the only definition of racism to be a guy wearing a KKK costume with swastikas and screaming "nigg@, nigg@, nigg@"".

Are you for real? This has to be satire and nobody is this stupid. So French players of African players coming through the French system - all born or raised in France since childhood and French nationals - means that the France has given up on French players? Please define "French players" for us - let's understand where you're coming from.
*French players of African heritage
Just had a read of the comments, and aside from the despair about the human race I just had. Here is a little something that may help, I have put key words in caps so it can help:
For something to be RACIST, it has to be associated with RACE. The dictionary definition being:
"characterized by or showing prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized."
So when you speak/sing about another countries FOOD or WOMEN. That isn't about their RACE, it is about country specific things, you could argue its XENOPHOBIC - but you can not argue that it is RACIST, as ultimately, a PACKET OF SPAGHETTI doesn't happen to be a RACE.
Now, where this song is RACIST is because it is implying that the BLACK (thats a RACE) players who play for France are not French but they are in fact AFRICAN. As according to them, the players themselves cannot be black French, they have to be African - tarring the whole RACE of players under the same brush and discrediting their legitimacy.
In some instances there are players who are a first generation immigrants, in some instances there are players who have had families that have lived in France for centuries. Just because they are BLACK doesn't mean that they should be considered African.
Why target just the RACE of BLACK people on the team with mixed backgrounds? I think that is obvious.
I think that might be an all time legendary RDD quote.

Good post, it’s basically implying these black French players are fake black people and a disgrace to their race because it’s saying they’re disguising as non African when they’re African, equivalent of calling them uncle tom’s but obviously French
Sadly people don’t consider this racist though, seems to have to be the N word or even more specifically to be deemed racist. Just look at Muhammad Ali, probably one of the biggest racists we’ve ever known in sport and what he put Frazier through and the racial bile he gave to Frazier was incredibly sad yet nobody even would acknowledge or still doesn’t that Ali was a massive racist

Surely they would be specific which players they meant then? Like they were about Mbappe.
I cant think of any specific player who is from Angola, with Cameroonian father and Nigerian mother.

It's pretty clearly racially derogatory. Many of you seem to want the only definition of racism to be a guy wearing a KKK costume with swastikas and screaming "nigg@, nigg@, nigg@"".
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Isn't it mocking France for giving up on French players and relying on players of African heritage instead?

So colour isn't mentioned, but you instantly know it's about black people. Why?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We know its about French players with African parents
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who were they referring to when the chant said they "run well"?

Oh, so you do realise the chant is referring to France's black players specifically.
And you also know about the "run well" stereotype. Famously used by racists to suggest black people are known for their athleticism rather than their brainpower.
So, what's the issue? Why can't you and other people see that this is a racist chant?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Colour isn't mentioned.
As for Black players running well, take a look at the best marathon runners and sprinters. The large majority will be Black.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Take a look at the 800m to 3000m runners.
I just knew you come on this thread and make a complete ass of yourself

Go luck up thje record.holders at those distances

Ok, will need some education here...
how does this song differ from the other racist chants about other countries?
I mean,
English to the Swedish 'you're sh111t, but yer birds are fit'
the German bombers song?
I raised something on the Leeds thread a while ago.. we have an Italian player... "he eats spaghetti, drinks Moretti, his c8cks f8cking massiiiiiive"... that song is racist on a couple of levels... 1. we're insinuating all Italians eat spegetti etc, and 2. we're insinuating that because he's a black lad, he has a massive c8ck. the press/media never mentioned anything about the Italian part.
isn't the meaning racist 'to discriminate against another race' right?.

Are you for real? This has to be satire and nobody is this stupid. So French players of African players coming through the French system - all born or raised in France since childhood and French nationals - means that the France has given up on French players? Please define "French players" for us - let's understand where you're coming from.

*French players of African heritage

Just had a read of the comments, and aside from the despair about the human race I just had. Here is a little something that may help, I have put key words in caps so it can help:
For something to be RACIST, it has to be associated with RACE. The dictionary definition being:
"characterized by or showing prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized."
So when you speak/sing about another countries FOOD or WOMEN. That isn't about their RACE, it is about country specific things, you could argue its XENOPHOBIC - but you can not argue that it is RACIST, as ultimately, a PACKET OF SPAGHETTI doesn't happen to be a RACE.
Now, where this song is RACIST is because it is implying that the BLACK (thats a RACE) players who play for France are not French but they are in fact AFRICAN. As according to them, the players themselves cannot be black French, they have to be African - tarring the whole RACE of players under the same brush and discrediting their legitimacy.
In some instances there are players who are a first generation immigrants, in some instances there are players who have had families that have lived in France for centuries. Just because they are BLACK doesn't mean that they should be considered African.
Why target just the RACE of BLACK people on the team with mixed backgrounds? I think that is obvious.

Good post, it’s basically implying these black French players are fake black people and a disgrace to their race because it’s saying they’re disguising as non African when they’re African, equivalent of calling them uncle tom’s but obviously French
Sadly people don’t consider this racist though, seems to have to be the N word or even more specifically to be deemed racist. Just look at Muhammad Ali, probably one of the biggest racists we’ve ever known in sport and what he put Frazier through and the racial bile he gave to Frazier was incredibly sad yet nobody even would acknowledge or still doesn’t that Ali was a massive racist

Surely they would be specific which players they meant then? Like they were about Mbappe.
I cant think of any specific player who is from Angola, with Cameroonian father and Nigerian mother.
