The "Nihilist Penguin" became the symbol of an entire generation's exhaustion.

@jamkadesmond Who tf said it was okay?

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

"Latinas of Africa" is such a porn-brained phrase. African women can't just be African women. Everything has to be filtered through some weird fetishized foreign comparison.

[Cleverly 💐 @Cleverlydey4u]

Cape Verde women are ready for the World Cup match today against Spain… the Latinas of Africa 😅❤️

@Luxuryaxp Society is weird asf

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@vampl0vrrr We all are

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@KeySeven146017 @Thats_asthcs Thanks for educating him

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@Thats_asthcs You are stupid, and it shows.

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@Luxuryaxp Exactly. People act like certain features are somehow "un-African" when Africa has always had immense diversity.

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

The problem is that "Latina" isn't an ethnicity, race, or phenotype. It's a regional identity tied to Latin America. People calling Cape Verdeans the "Latinas of Africa" suggests African women need a non-African reference point to be considered attractive, exotic, or whatever. That's exactly why people, especially me, find the phrase weird.

The media won't tell you this, but Iran kicked the United States ass.

[J 🇩🇿 🇧🇷 @Jxs_b]

I don’t expect anyone to stop talking about any injustice when the World Cup is on btw. Genocides don’t stop just bc football is on.

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@teocal_cruz I know the history of Cape Verde. What is your point?

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@OriginalKhutso5 It's not just Nigerians and Ghanaians. Yesterday, I saw several South Africans and other Africans fetishizing Cape Verdean women.

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

@S_Mahendrarajah You're absolutely correct. I'm certain there are Americans who can't pinpoint Washington DC on a map.

I'm convinced Trump failed geography in high school. Does this buffoon even know where Qatar and Iran are on a map?

[Rerum Novarum // Intel, Breaking News, and Alerts @officialrnintel]

🇺🇸🇫🇷🇶🇦⚡- "Working with the tough people of Qatar was a real pleasure. They are the closest to Iran physically. Other countries have to travel 45 minutes to get there, with Qatar, you could walk right across the border. So Qatar was in a more dangerous position," - President Trump at the G7 summit in Évian, France.

Note, Iran and Qatar do not share a land border despite Trump's claims.

@Heal_within96 Exactly, and it's disgusting

[Nora @Heal_within96]

Maybe if you had a bit of charisma, was physically fit like this brother, handsome, confident and masculine, you would get a Spanish woman to mate with you?

Only genetically defeated simps come on X and cry "it's unnatural that a Black man is with the woman I want..."

[The Catalyst @Thercy_]

"Latinas of Africa" is a phrase invented by people whose understanding of women comes from pornography and Instagram.

[African Hub @AfricanHub_]

Cape Verde 🇨🇻 women are not “Latinas of Africa”

They are Africans.

[far🇸🇷 @farlitoslime]

“The latinas of africa” bro kijk even wat je zegt met je porno verslaving brein

[𝕾𝖎𝖓 𝕰𝖒𝖔𝖈𝖎ó𝖓 🇬🇭🤝🏿🇸🇳 @GhanaianSavage]

I promise you, Cape Verde is much more than your dick getting wet because you see some lighter skinned women.

That's a country with a history, culture, and a spirit. They went through colonialism like we did.

[Dr Tariq Tramboo @tariqtramboo]

Absolutely insane atmosphere at LA Stadium for Iran.

Iran has won the hearts.
