Mo Farah: Online racist abuse getting worse

Racism in sport: Mo Farah says abuse towards black athletes is getting worseSir Mo Farah has said he has faced some "shocking" racism comments online, and says technology companies need to do more to tackle abuse on social media.

He was speaking in his home after England footballers Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Jadon Sancho were targeted after they missed penalties in the Euro 2020 final. Sir Mo, who missed out on representing Great Britain in the Olympic 10,000m after falling short of the qualifying mark, told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire about his hopes for continuing to race.

I believe it. I think it is a kind of envy, posing as contempt. I am a big fan of Mo Farah. Wishing you the best.

I say too My daughters and Son. If you get any abuse when yous are online don't answer back to them Don't give them The satisfaction that you are bothered about it.... Don't Give the bully's The Bragging rights

Yeah woke and CriticalRaceTheory did that if you say white people are born racists and when they say no we aint you say not knowing is proof that you are unconsciously racist well then people will just go ok then and embrace it.

Racist England fan abuses Saka, Rashford and Sancho in video after Euro 2020The man, who has not been named, uploaded the horrific clip in the aftermath of the Three Lions' heart-breaking defeat. Kent Police said an arrest was made on Tuesday after an alleged malicious communications offence Mate you look like a pure pick and why do you get so silly over a fucking international. I bet the family are proud Does he even mention race? from your transcript it appears he calls them 'three f*cking c*nts'. Its like the Rashford mural, it said 'sh*t b*stard' and then 'f*ck Sancho'... again zero mention of race. I'm probably racist for pointing out these incidents aren't racist.
