"White people invented soccer though"

White people invented everything.

"Plenty of white people like soccer too!"

Only in Europe, where a load-bearing component of soccer fandom is a continental network of ultraviolent hooligan clubs for which street battles and training for street battles are in practice the actual team sport. Europeans were presented with a non-contact sport and reacted by developing the most violent contact sport on the planet as a pastime to amuse themselves between matches. This phenomenon exists nowhere else in the world. It did not even occur to anyone else to form paramilitary football fandom MMA fight clubs. In Europe they emerged naturally.

You know how PepsiCo lowered the price of Lays products after RFK Jr. decided you can't use SNAP to buy them? The prices weren't high because it just costs so much to slice up and fry a potato. It was because they didn't care whether or not you could afford it because the people eating them were those getting it paid for by your tax dollars. When that was no longer a viable business model, they had to start pricing competitively again. You know, the way a free market is supposed to work.

The same logic applies to healthcare and universities. These corporations get their money from the government via people who are subsidized by the government. That's why college tuition has increased at three times the rate of inflation since the 1970s, and prescription drugs somehow cost less when you don't use insurance to pay for them (even private insurers get money from the government).

If you've ever wondered why TVs are among the only things that have gotten cheaper over the past ten years, that's why. The government doesn't buy TVs for people, so TV manufacturers actually have to care if consumers can afford them and must compete with each other on price.

So what will happen when everyone loses their jobs to AI and no one has any money? Don't worry, Big Daddy Government will give them your tax dollars. And when those run out, they'll just print money and devalue what little you still have. But as far as they're concerned, that's your problem.

White people tend to like contact sports - hockey, football, rugby - in which violence is a formalized element of game play.

Thirdies are in love with soccer, in which a core tactic is writhing around in performative agony to try to get the ref to call a penalty.

This is very similar to the strategies the two groups use for world conquest. Whites prefer open and honest warfare; nons pretend to be oppressed child refugees.

Everyone commenting that I’m actually describing basketball, thus proving my point directly, is very funny to me.

[American Philosophy @AmerPhilo2025]

The reason that soccer is the largest international sport is because it’s a sport perfectly designed for scammers.

Even in the World Cup, supposedly the highest and most prestigious level of international sport, there’s a stoppage of play roughly every 60 seconds for some guy writhing in pain from some tiny incidental contact. Interestingly, once he gets the call, he gets right up and runs for another hour just fine. It’s almost as if he wasn’t actually hurt at all.

Watch what happens when someone scores a goal - the defending team will immediately throw their hands up in protest, looking for any excuse to disallow the goal. Offsides, incidental contact, anything to refuse admitting they got scored on.

Whenever a ball goes out of bounds, each team starts fervently pointing at one another like toddlers on a playground saying “I didn’t do it, HE did it!”

Every single aspect of the sport is childish scamming. This doesn’t happen in any other sport - Hockey players don’t act this way, and almost all hockey players come from high trust countries. Almost all soccer teams come from low trust countries. They gravitate towards the sport because it rewards scammers. That’s it.

So my dad has been ending every phone call with "stay dangerous" instead of "goodbye" for like six months now. We all thought he was just being a weird dad. Turns out he's been mishearing the ending of a podcast he listens to. The host says "stay curious" but my dad is slightly deaf in one ear. He's been going around telling his coworkers, my grandmother, and apparently his DOCTOR to "stay dangerous" this entire time. My mom only found out because his doctor called to check if everything was okay at home. My dad has now decided he likes his version better and refuses to stop. Yesterday he told a nun to stay dangerous.

Gangsta rap is not authentic it's a carefully manufactured cultural product.

Most of them are actors: Tupac Shakur was a formally trained ballet dancer for christ sake and clearly homosexual... then he was repackaged as the archetypal street thug.

Rock music in the 90s was at its peak, sold most concert tickets, merch and when nu-metal emerged it began to mobilise disaffected young White men, channeled raw anger rooted in economic stagnation, family breakdown and cultural marginalisation into aggressive, communal experiences.

The "elites" who shape cultural production recognised the danger in this... unified anger among White men carried revolutionary potential if ever directed outward...

Rock was killed. By the early 2000s, the music industry completely pivoted toward hip hop and gangsta rap.

By elevating performative thug archetypes and sidelining bands that encouraged White male solidarity, the industry helped ensure that popular music remained a tool of pacification rather than awakening.

In short: rap is fake and gay

What defines the modern Republican Party's coalition is that they're all just a collection of outcasts who are angry that their identity group no longer controls the Democratic Party.

First, it happened with White Southerners, then it happened to White working-class voters in the Upper Midwest, then it happened to Hispanics in the Southwest, and it'll eventually happen to urban Blacks too, as they get displaced by Third Worldists just like the rest of us.

If I were a fat 90 IQ slob who who fell ass backwards into a lucrative no-show Wall Street executive position only because of my race and gender, I would probably behave in such a way as to make losing that ridiculously cushy life unlikely. I would mind my Ps and Qs for sure.

But that's what *I* would do as *not* a fat 90 IQ slob, so here we are.

FDR is the most overrated president in American history and it is not close.

People treat him like a saint. The reality is he inherited a recession and turned it into the longest depression in the history of the developed world. Every other major economy on earth recovered faster than the United States did under FDR. Sit with that. We had the most resources, the most industry, the most capacity, and we recovered slower than countries that got bombed.

Unemployment was still 19% in 1938. Six years into the New Deal. Six years of "bold experimentation" and one in five Americans still could not find work.

Why? Because his policies were economically illiterate. The NIRA cartelized entire industries and made it illegal to lower prices during a deflationary collapse. He paid farmers to slaughter livestock and plow under crops while people stood in bread lines. He launched a war on business so aggressive that investment dried up because nobody knew what insane rule was coming next. Even his own Treasury Secretary, Henry Morgenthau, admitted in 1939 that they had spent enormous sums and "it does not work" and that unemployment was as high as when they started.

Then in 1937 his policies triggered a second brutal crash so embarrassing the textbooks gave it its own polite little nickname, the "Roosevelt Recession," so they would not have to attach his name to the failure in the obvious way.

A UCLA study in 2004 concluded the New Deal prolonged the Great Depression by roughly seven years. Seven years of extra suffering sold to you as heroism.

So what actually saved the economy? Not the alphabet agencies. Not the fireside chats. A world war. Twelve million men shipped overseas and the entire planet's industrial competition reduced to rubble. That is the "recovery." That is the legacy.

Strip away Pearl Harbor and FDR is a guy who took a bad recession and stretched it into a decade of misery with bad economics and a cult of personality. He is not ranked on results. He is ranked on the luck of being in the chair when Hitler invaded Poland.

Greatest marketing job in the history of the presidency. Nothing more.
