I thought that political statements were not allowed in game (nor here for that matter). My question is why is the dancing figure that finishes it’s routine by taking the knee is allowed. Now the thrust of this post is to find out if I am misconstruing the image. So what do you all think? Is it a political statement or am I reading it wrong. A simple “right” or “wrong” will suffice. ---
