La Selección de Irán fue obligada a volverse a México después del partido contra Egipto. No los dejaron quedarse en Estados Unidos. Este es el momento en el que llegaron a Tijuana a las 4:00 am. Absolutamente vergonzoso.
KARL: Republicans are gonna make you the poster child for the Democratic Party
MAMDANI: Let them. We don't have to ask ourselves what life looks like if a socialist wins. I won last November, and over the course of these last 6 months, what we've delivered for working people are the very things we were told were impossible.
Jennifer Welch: “They’re so terrified that Zohran Mamdani or Barack Obama isn’t white, but they’re smarter, they’re better looking, they’re more liked. Black excellence exposes white mediocrity and they can’t stomach it”
Karl: Israel is a Jewish state. That’s in the charter. Do you support that?
Mamdani: I’ve said time and again that I support the state of Israel as a state with equal rights.
Karl: As jewish state?
Mamdani: I believe that any state that privileges one religion over another is one that I can’t tell you I support, whether it be Israel or Saudi Arabia or anywhere else. And a lot of that comes back to a fundamental belief that we should all be considered equal, no matter what our faith is.
Ironically, this heated "Olodo Uprising" conversation is actually a good sign for Nigeria.
Nigeria is finally having its first endogenous, organically-defined culture war over an issue that is intrinsically important to Nigerian society.
Every other culture war that post-colonial Nigeria has fought until now has been imported Yankee slop, or imported religious slop, or both (LGBTQ, 3rd wave Feminism, "sexual liberation", tithing, NYSC hijab, etc).
A society fighting internal culture wars over its own self-defined issues is a society that is finally obtaining an identity of its own. Long may the war continue, and may the olodos suffer crushing defeat that dooms their uprising to the chapters of a Jude Bela historical documentary released in 2045.
In this Stupid Old Man’s Head He will be the Only Candidate on the Ballot. Ugly Fucking Fool. Laslas na Beat all man go gather Beat you. Keep pushing Niggas. 🙄🤡🤬
💢Shame on FIFA for dragging politics onto the pitch.⚽️🏆👎
Three games, three disallowed goals, all ending in draws. You can't tell me this isn't rigged. FIFA has clearly politicized this #WorldCup to keep Iran from advancing.🇮🇷 That extra-time goal was CLEARLY onside. Disgraceful.
¡ESTA IMAGEN NOS ROMPIÓ EL CORAZÓN! 💔🇮🇷
Ramin Rezaeian marcó el gol del empate, fue elegido como el mejor futbolista del partido… pero eso no alcanzó.
Tras el pitazo final, no pudo contener las lágrimas. Irán estuvo a segundos de conseguir la clasificación, pero el gol de la victoria en el último minuto fue anulado.
La imagen de Ramin recibiendo el premio con los ojos llenos de lágrimas lo dice todo. Refleja el dolor de un equipo que no solo luchó dentro de la cancha, sino también fuera de ella.
Mientras otras selecciones viven el Mundial con normalidad, Irán ha tenido que entrenar en México y viajar el mismo día de cada partido a Estados Unidos. Un contexto que ha complicado enormemente su participación.
Esto fue mucho más que un partido de fútbol.
TIENEN TODO NUESTRO RESPETO, IRÁN. 🇮🇷❤️
