Fair enough, kinda loses its impact when you remember the german football fed or the fans didn't jail or execute Ozil for being Turkish.

Loses impact even further when one of the players covering his mouth, Gundongan, is also of Turkish descent.

Yeah, unless Gundongan also comes out as being discriminated against by germans FFA and fans.
I did do a quick read on the situation with Ozil and it seems to mostly started due to him meeting with the Turkish President who doesn't have the best reputation and the media used this as an excuse to stir shit as they like to do.

Gundongan also took pictures with the Turkish President around the same time and was called out for it as well, Ozil got the brunt of it because he was a star player that had been (and continued) to underperform at both club and national level.
