That's certainly the referee's opinion, so hey.

Well I'm not sure "promoting" is the right word (since it implies an intention) but its the word that came to mind
However, say a 9 year old is watching this on television or from the crowd. He sees Klopp perform these karate moves/punches at the air. They might get the impression that this is something they'd like to try too. And someone down the road could get hurt if its not calculated you know? Plus Klopp himself could have hit someone.
As I say, after much deliberation, I decided that it was okay... but only reluctantly (the context of football must allow for at least some expression of excitement)

At that moment Liverpool's coach Jurgen Klopp turned around, and issued a bunch of karate/punch moves at the air. These moves were executed rapidly, forcefully, and with uninterrupted progression (if there had been a ghost standing there it may have been obliterated by the said karate/punch moves).
Now the discussion issue I want to bring up from this is as follows:
Was this conduct appropriate? Is it acceptable for a football coach, when his team scores a point, to turn around and then launch a series of karate/punch moves at the air?
Or does such conduct cross the line into the improper promotion of violence?
Please discuss.
After a great deal of deliberation, I have personally reached the conclusion that it is borderline acceptable. It is true that the coach has the moral authority to lead by example and shouldn't be promoting violence (and it is true that millions of people, including children, are watching on TV)... but at the same time, it is a football game and everyone can get a little excited. I consider his conduct in this case acceptable because in part because it was 1-1. If the goal had turned say, a 2-1 into a 3-1 then maybe it wouldn't be okay.

Yes, it was acceptable. The only people from that match who should be punished, are Loris Karius and Sergio Ramos.

True, but we also have to keep in mind that where human and dragon ranges meet bad shit, such as the slaughtering of villagers and livestock and the kidnapping of princesses tends to happen.Fartsniffage wrote:Sovaal wrote:My fucking god.

Randomly killing apex predators is generally disastrous for the local ecosystem. We really shouldn't be encouraging it.

If a kid emulating some dude's victory dance results in that kid hurting someone else, then that's the fault of the kid's parents or legal guardian for not teaching the kid to use appropriate caution and making sure the space in which they are flailing their limbs about is clear of obstruction. And given Klopp is a grown man and presumably not blind, he similarly was aware that the space in which he was victory dancing was clear of other people before he flailed his limbs about.

And even if not. Even if he outright turned around and beat someone up. Not even accidentally. If he went and did it on purpose. That still does not make it a deliberate act of pro violence propaganda. And that is what the OP is alleging.
It's especially ridiculous once you take into account the fact that the whole event is something most people would have only seen on a sports related channel. The sort of channels that also tend to air ultimate fighting, boxing, K1, MMA and other actually violent displays of physical violence. There are literally adverts for MMA being played during the half time break.
Bottom line here is simple. People are not monkeys. We don't do what we see. We think about what we see and do what we think is right. So if you see violence and than do violence that's on you and only on you.

Its not a deliberate act. But it has the foreseeable consequence of possibly being emulated by someone less responsible that its iteration on television ought to have been better thought out. There is a difference.

In the end, I determined that even though there may be harmful consequences down the road (such as others emulating it in a much less safe environment), I'm going to have to let this one slide because of many of the reasons you've stated.
But it definitely doesn't feel so clear cut.

He didn’t assault anyone. Had he done that and karate chopped players or spectators, then I would get you questioning his behavior. If he did that in a match, then I’d agree with you in questioning his intent. But for the time being, don’t take soccer games so seriously.

Why does he have to be assaulting real people and within the match itself for it to have an impact on the behaviour of others?
What he did was caught on camera regardless. I saw it from my living room.
