@CP24 Typical FIFA bait & switch. They promised affordable tickets but only made a handful affordable. They’ve sold more than 90% of tickets at exorbitant prices so they won’t care about a few empty seats. Besides they’ll make most of the 💰 from broadcast rights, sponsors and merch.
@6ixbuzztv Sadly this will mostly affect poorer families, kids and immigrants who cannot afford to pay hundreds of dollars for official merch to partake in their World Cup teams’ spirit.
Israel & Saudi Arabia pushed the U.S. to attack Iran.
Netanyahu killed 72,000 people in Gaza, mostly women & children.
Saudi Arabia is a brutal dictatorship that allows no opposition.
These are the leaders who want to bring “freedom” to Iran?
Does anyone really believe that?
WOW!!!
Never thought we would hear this level of honesty from a Western leader, and certainly not Canada, given the direction of Canada in the past 25 years. Canada's shift towards multialignment is quite clear - and this level of honesty from Carney on Western "fiction" about the old order will be warmly welcomed in much of the Global South:
"We knew that the story about the rules-based order was partially false... We knew that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused and the victim. This fiction was useful [because of the goods provided by American hegemony]... So we placed the sign in the window. We participated in the rituals. And we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality. This bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination."
