Recently, there have been noticeable comments on social media that involve discrimination and defamation against specific players.

In accordance with the J-League's unified prohibitions regarding "making discriminatory or insulting remarks or actions related to race, skin color, gender, language, religion, politics, or origin," FC Tokyo has been working to eliminate discrimination, provocation, and nuisance behaviors since we issued the message 'FAIR SUPPORT FOR ALL BY ALL' in September 2014.

I believe there are various interpretations of what statements or actions may be considered insulting and discriminatory. However, what is important is not the mindset of the person who committed the act, but how the recipient felt about it. Our club absolutely does not tolerate such insulting or discriminatory (as perceived) statements or actions.

We kindly ask all fans and supporters to understand the above considerations and continue to provide us with your passionate support in the future.
