@okido0505@UnkleAyo@Ol0ye Your post right here is exactly why those countries voted 'against', as implied by the last sentence of your screenshot.
Instead of condemning wrongdoing,you chose to defend one side because you favor them, pointing to the fact that their crimes are less severe or less frequent.
This is a funny position to take.
Firstly, you won't parrot it as if black people are lovers of black people. In your country, a South Easterner will get mauled in the streets for voting in the South West.
In your continent, your southern neighbors are the dancehall of xenophobia.
Secondly, I am Nigerian. I am African. Never in our history have we had the Argentines cross into our borders for occupation. I don't see you giving this energy to Belgium, Portugal or England.
Thirdly, for what particular reason do you want a black player on the Argentine team? Attached are images from the Senegalese, Mali and Nigerian football teams. Where are the white people?
The power of reflection is a powerful social skill.
Your first 4 paragraphs should be directed internally if you utilize the power of reflection - especially since your singular retort to a logic that weaponised your own logic was slide II.
None of your arguments is crazy because I have partially shared similar sentiments re: Argentina. Until today, I have NEVER made pro-Argentina tweets.
I support Messi & our journey came from club levels. It's only logical that my support extends to his national efforts.
Today's conversation is happening because YOUR CAMP decided to politicize football banters and police people choices, for the same foolishness that the people you support perpetuate.
Everything you accuse Argentina of till today, is still perpetrated by the people you support. Whether from historical context or current occupational context - except that Argentina isn't currently occupying anybody's country.
All the European countries you staunch support by, are still in business.
There's no atrocity you are accusing Argentina of, that I won't pull out 5 more instances from ANY of your esteemed European nation.
I'll scale it back home & pull current numbers from your continent.
What in the fuckall talk-from-both-sides-of-the-mouth double standards are we doing here. It is nothing but bare pseudointellectual discourse.
@Fortunefirstcl1@_jamesthefirst I'll go after you... Yours should even louder for supporting a team with no Man United player or even your idol... You left Lisandro for Spain ๐
@Fortunefirstcl1@gnf_ogo Yeahh sure.... Still valid for me
But we're talking about TEAM here. Messi in PSG may be in company of so many other unlikable players to me๐, hence my choosing Barcelona.
