Problem?

I imagine he's wondering about questions of people like Ugo that go unanswered from people who have differing views.

If you don't think racism is rife in rugby you are a "denier".

If you don't think that everything is racist, you are a denier.

EVERYTHING is problematic.

Agreed, just as it’s completely fine for anyone to choose not to kneel for their own personal reasons, they also have a right not to be victimised for doing so.

I think Marland Yarde makes this point about death threats

That is what it says in the article that was originally posted, but clearly some people are commenting without actually having read it.

How dare I comment something that's true, irrespective of what some article says.

People aren't kneeling in 2020 because MLK did it. They're doing it because Colin Kaepernick did a couple of years ago, repopularising the gesture.
