I generally agree with you but just playing devil’s advocate, I think Rashford used his voice and position well to make good effective change.

I mean… until pretty recently we’d have said the same about Jordan Henderson…
I don’t even mean it as banter, but Marcus Rashford excels at Philanthropy as much as he does Football. No devil’s advocate about it.
I’d listen to Peter Cech’s opinion on hockey and drumming. You can be knowledgeable in more than one field.

You can, but you need to prove it by showing your know knowledge in said field. In that case, you listen to someone talking about hockey that happens to be a successful footballer, not because he’s a successful footballer
I don’t know Cech outside of football, but I’m assuming the reason you and others (in particular, hockey people and drummers) listen to him on those topics and found it to make sense. Yes, without him being a successful footballer you’d never heard about him, but he still needed to prove himself on that
Then you also have the obvious that having certain issues in some issues raises your commercial value to a degree that hockey and drumming don’t
There’s definitely positive examples yes. But by golly are they rare and mostly something we can only judge on the surface. Geniunely appreciate Rashys work a lot but I’m saddened he even has to do that level of advocating for such a no brainer
Yeah you’d think starving children = bad is a fairly easy position for all of us to get behind.
But Tories gonna Tory.
Tories: “We have to leave the EU to take care of our own.”
Starving British kids: “So does that mean we’ll finally have food?”
Tories: “Eww, no, fuck off.”
Wasn’t there a Tory who grew up on free lunches and decided to remove the ladder once he reached the top?
