    How social media reacted following Rugby Australia’s decision to terminate Israel Folau’s contract.

    On a day when words that harm are recognised, to create a better environment for all. Sometimes pictures can say everything.❀️🌈 pic.twitter.com/1siSAgvTp0

    Look at the fucking state on this.

    Folau talking about freedoms and rights.

    That’s why you’re in this mess you halfwit.

    Because you deny those freedoms and rights to others. pic.twitter.com/QKjtogrxKq

    You can also get disowned, beaten & even killed for leaving your religion, even in the West. And, being an atheist is part of who I am, too. I don’t agree with a word of what Folau said but I defend his right to say it…without losing his livelihood. This isn’t hard. https://t.co/7DxKEXPKi7
