Sticking to an American frame and the principle of freedom of speech from the federal government, if the premier league or another private organization wanted to enforce this from the boundaries of their stadium, that's fine.(banning people from being racist at football matches). Having legislation create a system of using the top level government resources to patrol the internet for what they deem to be racist should be concerning to a statesman that holds the original principles of the federal goverment to be law. This is because not only could they liberally enforce this onto people who are not being racist, but also to decide some forms of actual racism isn't racist and create a class of people who are above justice without any check on this power at the country level(except a slow bureaucracy/judicial system). Of course, England can do what ever it wants. If this is across the board what english want for themselves, great for them!
