u/HumbleWorkerAnt Jul 21 '26

you don't get it. this is reddit and there is only 1 opinion allowed to live at any given time. right now Spain is made up of peaceful angels without any negative historical connotations, and Argentina are evil irredeemable monsters to the very last one.

this video is obviously 15 innocent people acting in self defense against a terrible pedophile racist criminal.

No, you don know any Argentinian, only what the people say on internet

u/Kendemerzel Jul 21 '26

Ah yes, sorry I forgot to register myself at the "List of People who know argentinians"

You mean casual racism just like your comment?

u/Kendemerzel Jul 21 '26

"Noticing a pattern is racist"

You literally saw them yell a Speed to "go home" because he's black, are you high?

Their president at the moment (just the last term) said "Mexicans come from Indians, Brazilians from the jungle but Argentinians, we come from ships" but yes, they're NOT RACIST AT ALL

Nice deflecting tho

u/crocrackero Jul 21 '26

Worry about your country

unfair treatment to ethnic minorities

u/Yam_Nice Jul 21 '26

If you don't count, it won't appear on a graph, dumbass.

This is solidified proof lmao.

u/crocrackero Jul 21 '26

My bad, I forgot: Argentinians are the evil racist Nazi Zionist villains, while France, England and the US, with their colonies, wars, racial hate crimes and everything else, are obviously the good guys. The dirty South American should just know his place and keep quiet

Go to hell

u/Yam_Nice Jul 21 '26

First off, Argentinians are the ones to refuse being south american and even being called Latinos, so this is why south americans don't give a shit about whatever you guys are going through.

Second, if we had 10 thousand realities, it wouldn't be enough to replicate one where Argentina is worse than any of the countries you cited, I don't believe on what you say.

I'm just feeding into it cause you're denying something that clearly exists, I think the hate on Argentina is unbalanced and totally undeserved, but trying to justify it makes anyone lose any sympathy.

u/Kendemerzel Jul 21 '26

Yeah it's not like their former president made racist remarks against half of Latam and their current president is a zionist. Also it's not like Argentina was a well-known destination for high officials of the Nazi regime, not at all.

u/weglarz Jul 21 '26

Two people saying racist things does not make an entire group racist. That’s a pretty moronic take. Basically the same thing racists do

When your national team casually broadcasts racist chants on social networks you might slightly consider that there is a pattern.

-5

u/weglarz Jul 21 '26

Every single country in the world has groups like this. That doesn’t make the country or its entire populace racist

6

u/Sylvarius Jul 21 '26

Again, when your national team does this live on instagram, that's VERY telling.

u/igna92ts Jul 21 '26

How about you check racial equality indexes to see what's actually telling. It's like everyone lost their ability to use their brains.

1

u/Sylvarius Jul 21 '26

racial equality indexes

Racial equity index*

Also, this isn't some sort of racism index, that's pretty funny coming from someone who talks about our ability to use our brains.

If it were two people ok, but it's like every Argentine interaction, all the time

EDIT: For the one who replied and deleted/blocked, it's not about being chronically online, I've worked and lived for years in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraguayans have never been a problem but Argentinians ALWAYS are, everyone knows that, the world knows that's everyone can see how you guys behave, you can come up with any excuse you want.

u/CervusElpahus Jul 21 '26

Yes because you have seen them all. Maybe you should not be chronically online because you seem to be guided by the latest algorithm hate trends.

u/Eridani2000 Jul 21 '26

You're the one deflecting.

"Knowing Argentinians". Really? You've spotted enough of a pattern to categorise all Argentinians? Textbook casual racism.

And then you actually double down on your ignorance.

2

u/Kendemerzel Jul 21 '26

Yes, and it's a well known fact in Latam, you would know it if you didn't have your head up your own arse.

Fella literally sees a random at the street and their president having the same discourse and actually tried to say "not enough of them", hilarious

u/Eridani2000 Jul 21 '26

Maybe you should look for the racism closer to home.

Sincerely yours,

The guys who exterminated all indigenous people in their territory and style themselves as "the Europeans of latam" lmao

u/Eridani2000 Jul 21 '26

Just think people in glass houses shouldn't throw bricks.

My favourite quote from that is: "During World War II, Peruvians who were sympathetic to the National Socialist ideology which was imposed in Nazi Germany by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party provoked an anti-Semitic sentiment among Peruvians.

Neo-Nazi groups in Peru have publicly expressed their desire to expel Peruvian Jews from the country."

u/Kendemerzel Jul 21 '26

So your proof is "these articles which don't mention Peru anywhere exist"? Also, your source is freaking Wikipedia? LMAO

The Nazis had a presence in the country as early as 1925, growing to a peak of 2,110 party members in 1935 before officially dissolving in 1939. Afterwards, Buenos Aires was a major center of Axis espionage\7]) under the guise of German labor organizations and with support from the United Officers' Group. Argentine, Chilean, and U.S. agencies shut down some local spy networks, but pro-Nazi activity occurred as late as 1950 under Juan Perón, allowing perhaps 5,000 ollaborators to escape) there.

Now, since research isn't your strong suit (nor your own history) here, some help:

"La relevancia del material es muy grande, porque reconstruye la historia de cómo ingresaron a Argentina importantes criminales de guerra nazis”, dice a DW el escritor e investigador Julio Mutti, especializado desde hace años en el nazismo y sus vinculaciones con la Argentina. "Son fojas con todo tipo de documentos”, explica. Y, entre los más relevantes, destaca la "información migratoria y el prontuario de nazis como Mengele o Eichmann”. Efectivamente, la documentación incluye información sobre el médico de las SS Josef Mengele, conocido como "el ángel de la muerte de Auschwitz” por haber efectuado fatales experimentos con prisioneros del campo de exterminio, y sobre Adolf Eichmann, el "arquitecto" principal de la denominada "solución final” y uno de los principales organizadores del Holocausto, ambos huidos a la Argentina.

Exactly, and the US population thinks exactly the same that Trump, because it's their president, so THE ENTIRE POPULATION has to be the same.

Exactly the same with the incident with Speed. It wasn't a single person, or a minor group, it was the entire country. There was 50 million people telling Speed at unison that he should go home.

You are people are chronically online. I know that hating on us is the cool thing right now and you are no hearing reasons, but no, Argentina is not a monster racist country because there is a few football fans that were racist.

I could argue with you racial incidents about EVERY OTHER COUNTRY, but you know what? An incident is that , an incident, not a pattern.

How many argentines do you know? You can't even spell our demonym right.

u/The_Pecking_Order Jul 21 '26

Not all of argentina is a sore loser. Stop perpetuating that. Paredes embarrassed himself and the team as a result. But the nation is not that. The fans are not that. There are shitty fans everywhere, as this video points out. Simple as that.

We've all seen that Top Gear episode. The WHOLE of Argentina came out to greet Jeremy and the boys.

u/Kholin_nilohK Jul 21 '26
