@jhern87@mikivainilla601@fibonaci6969@mensahkengh@LordOfDouglas@MoMohler Idk EU is just a fair comparison with the USA I guess. Even still I donโt think you would dominate, small nations do well in football all the time. Brazil gets beaten by Croatia sometimes. Country of 200 million v country of 5 million.
@veylis24@cseibors@StreameastNews I agree that if football was as popular in the US as it is in ๐ช๐บ and S America they would be a huge force in the game & would produce world class players & a team that can win the WC. But some posters are arrogantly saying they would completely dominate the sport which is wrong
@thekhemistlives@fcima1974@StreameastNews In the UK and France itโs mostly just poor kids and immigrant kids that seriously pursue a career in football so I feel like your point doesnโt land
@jhern87@SkipMalone_@MoMohler Population size isnโt the be all and end all for the sport. Portugal is better than Mexico at the sport despite being smaller and itโs the most popular sport in both countries
@BasedFrieren@CapsGotFixed@mikitaposts Their are so many reasons someone in the late 1800s and early 1900s would choose to stay and leave their homeland and itโs foolish to chalk it just down to courage and cowardice
@BurningReborn@mealdealtruther 100 percent actual working class culture and not habits and traits of the middle class children born to working class parents
it honestly comforts me that weโre collectively coming to the realization that this level of Phone All the Time is unsustainable and making us worse. maybe naive but i hope this is the beginning of a quieter, slower era where we all look up and return to ourselves and each other
@Faber_Indeed@transsexual1ty@LinkofSunshine Went past a lodge in a town in the UK the other day and they had a banner advertising themselves and telling people interested in joining to enquire online. Seems a far cry from the last century where I believe you had to be invited
@anti_gyro_@aboutnoemiel Bro Europe does not want war they want to spend less than 2 percent of gdp on defence and sit back and smoke weed and work 4 days a week. Europe is being forced to ramp up defence spending because America is becoming isolationist and Russia is becoming expansionist
@serenityposting@Asmallnotch@agraybee I might be being pedantic here (and it might be due to how different class terms are used between the UK and USA) but it was classism coming from mostly middle class and working class striver policemen, local councillors and cps workers to lower working class/underclass girls
