Politics affects everyone, so everyone should have a right to speak out if they wish. However that supposed 'freedom of speech' element, is now proscribed if people are inciting violence or urging hatred, etc. So maybe Zlatan is warning against people in the public eye making mistakes in what they say, or really they don't know what they are talking about and others might use their words to e.g. incite violence or hatred?
When celebrities use their position 'for good', or are seen to be speak out for those who cannot, or from their own experience, (like Rashford) then it is perceived to be OK , often though when they are seen to be taking sides, which is often the case in politics, you have to wonder what the benefits are?
I often think that when celebrities, who appear not to have a 'dog in the race', starting shouting the odds, or calling people out, on specifics it often looks like they are mainly concerned about self-promotion, perhaps this is what Zlatan is doing?
