Okay folks. sorry, I will watch it.
Hope Brazil or Germany wins.
Who cares about LGBTQA+ rights and slave work, right?
Death will eventually come, blablabla...
Long live InfantinoGive me your upvotes now!
- decide yourself ffs.oey_oey
- Go change the world by not watching it and still checking out the results which indirectly still means you are watching it.milfhunter
- And who cares about LGBTQA+ in an islamic state?milfhunter
- now seriously, who wrote about changing the world, how is checking results when some even come first in news websites, is the same as watching...oey_oey
- ...and why wouldn't someone care about human rights no matter where?oey_oey
- Its not about rights but understanding the difference in culture. What we do in the West doesn't mean everyone in the world should do the same right away.milfhunter
- who is into ethnocentrism dude, I come from Portugal and I'm against that shit, what the country where I come from didoey_oey
- but basic human rights have nothing to do with culture...oey_oey
- My point is, you are not doing anything by not watching it. So don't be bothered sharing it.milfhunter
- just because it's a culture to suppress women's rights doesn't mean that's okay.oey_oey
- justifying stuff as cultural is just so fucked up dudeoey_oey
- no man, you are mixing stuff.oey_oey
- whatever, I'll stop here. this is not facebook.oey_oey
- You are looking it only from your own perspective. I'm not implying its the right thing they are doing but its not for us to tell them to act different.milfhunter
- Lol what has Portugal todo with this?milfhunter
- I'm sorry to say but human rights have to with culture. Everything has to do with culture.palimpsest
- You have to come to the conclusion that some cultures are shittier than others.
At some point in your life you have to decide who you gonna be.palimpsest - And that's when you when you tell other people that their culture is shit because it's the same as yours. Because you believe your culture to be better.palimpsest
- And you have you have to own up to that choice. Because in your heart of hearts you believe to be true. Even if you've been conditioned to believe it.palimpsest
- oey_oey I get it, mate. I'm hating myself for following this WC, considering everything around it.Continuity
- If you're a true football fan the pros outweigh the cons. The rest of us are just jumping on the woke bandwagon.palimpsest
- This is one of the few where we all get together though.palimpsest
- I go back on my word to reply to pali, I agree with you to one certain point. you are not wrong. but just because it's someone's culture doesn't mean it's rightoey_oey
- some of these cultural things are institutionalized, look what happens in Iran. women should maybe don't protest because it's their culture?oey_oey
- bull fighting in Spain and Portugal it's a culture but is it right?oey_oey
- I'm not trying to impose my western ideals.oey_oey
- killing people because they don't belong to a norm defined by the most powerful, the privileged, even the majorrithy is wrong or isn't it?oey_oey
- discrimination happens everywhere at different levels. is it right because it's a cultural thing?oey_oey
- Well, I think we're going to have to get used to shitty cultures hosting these events. First Russia, then Qatar. And, inexplicably, Greece wants to do a jointContinuity
- I know of people that say there are no cultural differences just education, respect and love. I'm not into that. I believe there's cultural differences.oey_oey
- ... WC bid with Egypt and Saudi Fucking Arabia.Continuity
- using the culture argument as an excuse to why some things happen and we should not care...come on.oey_oey
- sometimes what we perceive as culture is nothing more than power. Iran was so different. what's happening now is not their culture, it was imposed.oey_oey
- now I'm out, have to fight the mold. have fun guys. and sorry for the extreme sarcasm of my post. peace.oey_oey
- "If you're a true football fan the pros outweigh the cons. " I should have read this before I replied. whatever.oey_oey
- I think we're still on the same page.palimpsest
- I think so, too. None of us is happy that one thing we look forward to every 4 years has been highjacked by corruption and shitty human rights records.Continuity
- For me, it's a bit extra-shitty, too: first time Canada qualifies in 36 years, and it has to be in fucking Qatar, Ugh.Continuity
- We're all smart enough to separate the wheat from the chaff. It's a question of what we decided to feed on.palimpsest
