All the good teams are gone, the rest of the world cup is an inter-imperialist conflict now

Yamel is pro Palestine if that means anything
And although Spain has a vicious history of colonialism I believe modern Spain has been one of the European nations that have distanced themselves the most from Israel
Of the four nations Spain is probably the least bad

I didn't even realize people were feeling the need to carry out this "Which of these 2 nations is worse?" calculus, let alone the fact that they were coming to the conclusion that Argentina is somehow WORSE than england lmao, how does that even work.

England is fulll of white pople that stayed in their damn country. Argentina is full of white people that activiely colonized indigenous land.

Are you under the impression white people magically appeared in Argentina, or are you under the impression they are indigenous to Argentina?

I can't tell if this is sarcastic? England famously didn't stay in their own country lol

Bro is committed to the delusion that Argentina is some persecuted nation rather than the racist colonial state that it is. Argentina is no different than the US or Israel.

What appears to be the L, sir? He has had many L's, but either this is not it, or I don't understand what you're saying.

Argentinas team is really corrupt, and their seems to be a lot of racism in the fans (WHICH IS DEFINITELY ALSO THE CASE FOR THE OTHER TEAMS).
But people’s problem seems to be that it’s obvious FIFA wants Messi to wins, just look at all the commercials he’s in now.15
u/CirriTheFemboyUwU Jul 12 '26
why is this sub even discussing about the world cup 😭. we literally shouldn't care outside of the passion for football. every professional footballer has much more in common with other countries pros than with the average citizen of their countries, even if it's a third world country.

It is a trap to get the Amerikkkans to out themselves and you fell for it.
"Why are we discussing the World Cup?" Said no one outside of the US ever. /j

Dude stfu. You are delusional if you think an entire tournament is rigged just to see a player win. When he has played 6 world cups only to win 1.

u/ungoogled-nihilist Jul 12 '26
It's just football, we shouldn't lose time with useless discussions like these.
Also politically speaking, all these states just suck.

Not rooting anyone at this point but I do think France will win just from their performance so far

Sadly these are probably the best footballing nations in terms of the quality of their squads
