Did America not realise that the ‘soccer’ World Cup would involve people from all over the world visiting?
Is it the Baseball ‘World Series’ that has confused them?
When it was Qatar 2022 BBC, Sky News and ITV News were doing segments for 40 days and 40 nights about human rights abuse and campaigning for alcohol to be allowed during the World Cup. But USA is refusing to allow a referee and Iran’s team in and they’ve gone quiet. Cowards
we were told that 2010 was the worst World Cup because it was being held in South Africa, we were told that the World Cups in Russia and Qatar are going to be the worst because they were being held in authoritarian countries.
We were told that USA would be the best host for WC because it is a democracy and has the best NFL stadiums.
All these narratives were set by the media which wanted us to hate on countries which are not in Western hemisphere.
Hi darling @ToniKroos
You spent months criticizing Qatar and talking about every possible issue before and during the 2022 World Cup, yet it turned out to be one of the best-organized tournaments in history. Public transportation was free, fans could travel easily between stadiums some fans saw 4 matches in the stadium in same day, and the overall organization was praised by millions of visitors.
Now, when concerns are being raised about visa delays, strict entry procedures, and travel difficulties surrounding tournaments in the United States, we don't hear the same level of criticism from you. There have also been complaints about organizational decisions and match arrangements that many fans consider unnecessary or difficult, yet your voice is nowhere near as loud as it was when Qatar hosted the World Cup.
If your criticism is truly based on principles, then the same standards should apply to everyone. But when Qatar receives endless criticism while similar concerns elsewhere are met with silence, people are naturally going to question whether your issue was really about organization at all.
Fuck you.
This should be the last time that America ever hosts a major international tournament - in any sport. The International Olympic committee should be watching very carefully for LA 2028
*Russia banned from football for attacking Ukraine*
*USA, host of the World Cup, bombs Iran for over a month, kills its Supreme Leader and refuses to let the Iranian team stay even one night in the country*
FIFA President:
What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.
The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

Nearly 100 fans from Morocco applied to go the USA.
The US blocked nearly 90% of their applications.
This is the most racist World Cup ever and it should be boycotted by everyone, the USA is refusing to let non-white people come.
