Politics has become a competition between two extreme groups that are competing to capture votes by promising unsustainable policies to unhappy citizens.
🚨🗣️ Dani Alves (laughing):
“People are talking about Messi like they’ve just discovered a new player. I’ve known Leo for years everything he’s doing now is normal for him. This is his routine. Magic, impossible passes, unbelievable goals, deciding games… that’s who Messi is.
He can do everything on a football pitch. For me, he has always been the greatest player in the history of football and nothing will ever change that. There will never be another player like him.
We are talking about a football genius, a player who made the impossible look ordinary for nearly two decades. Every generation gets stars, but football will never give us another Messi. He is unique, eternal, and the GOAT.” 🐐 🇦🇷

Society will never improve until people and the media can look at issues with a logical perspective of: Is this right or wrong to be happening?
EXPOSE IT ALL
Beaucoup de figures de gauche, aux US comme en Europe, qualifient Musk d'extrême droite. Certains vont jusqu'au mot « nazi ».
J'ai fait l'inverse de l'accusation : lire avant de juger. Deux biographies. Des dizaines d'heures d'interviews et de documentaires. Zéro once de racisme détectée.
Ce que j'ai trouvé, c'est une obsession constante pour la liberté : rachat de Twitter au nom de la liberté d'expression, réintégration des comptes bannis, publication des Twitter Files, ouverture du code de l'algorithme, open-source de Grok, brevets Tesla libérés en 2014, Starlink rallumé pour les Iraniens coupés du net pendant les manifestations et pour l'Ukraine, refus répété des demandes de censure étatiques.
Maintenant, faisons l'expérience de pensée que ses accusateurs ne font jamais. Imaginez que Musk soit réellement evil.
Cet homme possède un réseau de satellites qui couvre la planète, soit une capacité de surveillance quasi totale. Il possède la place publique numérique la plus influente du monde. Il possède la première fortune à 1000 milliards de l'Histoire, depuis l'IPO de SpaceX le 12 juin. Aucun individu n'a jamais concentré autant de leviers.
Un Musk réellement malveillant, avec ça dans les mains, ne tolérerait pas une seconde qu'on le traite de nazi H24 sur sa propre plateforme. Il bannirait. Il surveillerait. Il écraserait. On serait déjà dans 1984.
Or regardez la réalité : les comptes qui l'accusent de nazisme tweetent toujours. Tous les jours. Sans entrave. Sur son réseau. Avec son algorithme. La dystopie totalitaire qu'on lui prête se démontre par l'absence du goulag.
Voilà le retournement. 1984 le contrôle de la parole, la surveillance de masse, la désignation publique des hérétiques ce n'est pas son projet. C'est le fantasme de ceux qui l'accusent. L'accusation décrit toujours l'accusateur.
C'est du Girard à l'état pur : on désigne un bouc émissaire pour ne pas voir le mécanisme qu'on porte soi-même. Celui qui hurle « nazi » rêve souvent, en silence, du pouvoir de bannir, de ficher, de faire taire.
L'homme qui aurait tous les moyens de bâtir 1984 est précisément celui qui laisse ses pires détracteurs parler. Demandez-vous qui, dans cette histoire, rêve vraiment du télécran.

🚨🎙️ Pep Guardiola was asked:
“Who is the GOAT between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo?”
🗣️ Pep Guardiola smiled:
“Honestly, I don't like this debate anymore because people always want a five-second answer for a question that deserves five hours.”
🗣️ “The moment you say Messi, Ronaldo fans get angry. The moment you say Ronaldo, Messi fans get angry.”
🗣️ “Football is not social media. Football is not about choosing a side in ten seconds.”
🗣️ “To understand greatness, you have to understand football first.”
🗣️ “Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest competitors I have ever seen in any sport.”
🗣️ “His mentality is unbelievable. His discipline is unbelievable. The way he transformed himself from a winger into the greatest goalscorer football has ever seen is something that should be studied.”
🗣️ “You don't score that many goals by accident.”
🗣️ “You don't dominate England, Spain, Italy and international football by accident.”
🗣️ “Cristiano earned every single achievement he has.”
🗣️ “But then there is Messi.”
🗣️ “And this is where the conversation changes.”
🗣️ “When I coached Messi, I realized very quickly that I wasn't looking at a normal football player.”
🗣️ “I was looking at football itself.”
🗣️ “There are players who score goals.”
🗣️ “There are players who create goals.”
🗣️ “There are players who control matches.”
🗣️ “Messi does all three at the same time.”
🗣️ “People see the goals.”
🗣️ “I see the passes nobody else sees.”
🗣️ “I see the spaces nobody else understands.”
🗣️ “I see the decisions that change games before anyone realizes what happened.”
🗣️ “That's why I always laugh when people compare football only through statistics.”
🗣️ “Football is much deeper than statistics.”
🗣️ “If football was only about goals, then maybe the debate would be different.”
🗣️ “But football is also creativity.”
🗣️ “Football is intelligence.”
🗣️ “Football is influence.”
🗣️ “Football is making everyone around you better.”
🗣️ “And for me, nobody has ever done that better than Messi.”
🗣️ “Can Ronaldo be called one of the greatest ever?”
🗣️ “Of course.”
🗣️ “Without any doubt.”
🗣️ “But if you ask me personally, if you ask me honestly, if you ask me as somebody who watched Messi every day…”
🗣️ “Then my answer is Lionel Messi.”
🗣️ “Not because Ronaldo isn't incredible.”
🗣️ “He is.”
🗣️ “Not because Ronaldo didn't change football.”
🗣️ “He did.”
🗣️ “But because Messi changed the way football is understood.”
🗣️ “That is a different level.”
🗣️ “And maybe some Ronaldo fans will criticize me for saying this.”
🗣️ “That's okay.”
🗣️ “I respect Cristiano enormously.”
🗣️ “But I cannot ignore what my eyes have seen.”
🗣️ “For many years I watched Messi do things that should not be possible on a football pitch.”
🗣️ “Things that coaches cannot teach.”
🗣️ “Things that defenders cannot stop.”
🗣️ “Things that only belong to geniuses.”
🗣️ “Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest players in football history.”
🗣️ “Lionel Messi is the greatest footballer I have ever seen.”
🐐🇦🇷✨
🗣️ “Sometimes the hardest answer to give is also the simplest one.”
Riyad Mahrez on Lionel Messi’s masterclass vs Algeria:
🗣️ “What Lionel Messi did against us tonight is beyond incredible, especially at his age and at this stage of a World Cup where every single detail matters so much.”
“When you face a performance like that on the pitch, you can only stop and respect it… because it is not normal football anymore, it is pure genius taking control and deciding the entire direction of the game.”
“I remember before the match people were saying ‘he is not Messi anymore’… and I even said once in a normal conversation that if Algeria had Messi, we could beat Argentina, but football always has a way of proving things wrong.”
“But tonight he showed exactly why players like him cannot be replaced, compared, or even properly planned for… he is on a completely different level that you only truly understand when you are playing against him.”
“Every single time he touched the ball, we felt danger immediately… and every time we tried to close him down or block his space, he still managed to find another solution that hurt us.”
“As players, you prepare for him, you study videos, you analyse his movements, you try every tactical plan possible… but in the end, there are moments where you just have to accept pure greatness.”
“He didn’t just beat us tonight or score goals against us… he controlled the rhythm of the entire match in his own way from the first minute to the last.”
“That was not just a performance or a good game… that was a reminder, a very clear one, of why he is considered one of the greatest players to ever play football.”
Zinedine Zidane on the Lionel Messi red card controversy vs Algeria:
🗣️ “I have watched the incident involving Lionel Messi several times now, from different angles, and I honestly don't understand how some people are calling for a red card.”
“Yes, there is contact. Nobody is denying that. But football is a contact sport, and not every collision automatically becomes a sending-off just because social media wants a bigger story.”
“What disappoints me is that people are spending more time talking about one accidental moment than talking about the football masterpiece Messi produced over ninety minutes.”
“A player scores a hat-trick, breaks records, dominates a World Cup match, and somehow the conversation becomes a challenge that lasted a few seconds. That tells you everything.”
“For me, intent matters. Context matters. The speed of the action matters. And when I look at the incident, I see a football action, not a player trying to hurt an opponent.”
“I think some people had already made up their minds before the replay was even shown. If that same incident involved another player, I don't believe we would still be discussing it hours later.”
“The truth is simple: Messi didn't escape a red card. There was no red card to escape. The referee saw it, VAR checked it, and they reached the same conclusion.”
“Instead of searching for controversy, maybe we should appreciate what we witnessed tonight one of the greatest players in football history delivering another unforgettable World Cup performance.”
The problem is that Algeria actually had a great plan to deal with Messi.
I’ve seen many tactical setups designed specifically to stop him, and Algeria’s first-half approach was one of the best I’ve seen in recent years.
Their idea was to push play toward the left side and keep Messi away from the center of the action. But Messi adapted. Instead of forcing things himself, he kept moving between the lines to attract defenders and create space for teammates like Lautaro and Almeida.
Lautaro often moved inside from the right, allowing Messi to operate in deeper areas and exploit the spaces Scaloni wanted to open up. The result? Messi scored and helped create several dangerous chances from those movements.
Then Algeria changed their approach. Rather than focusing on Messi, they tried to isolate Argentina’s attackers and cut off his passing options. The message became simple: “If Argentina wants to hurt us, Messi has to do it himself.”
Messi accepted the challenge.
Despite being surrounded by multiple Algerian players whenever he touched the ball, he still completed 19 of 26 passes and created four chances, including two clear opportunities.
When Algeria eventually dropped into a deep low block to isolate him even further, Messi adapted again. He started dropping deeper, helping Argentina build from the back, creating space for teammates, carrying the ball through pressure, and even contributing defensively.
That’s why it’s hard to say this game wasn’t all about Messi.
Algeria’s plan was good. Our adjustments were good. Our discipline was good.
The problem was that they were facing Lionel Messi. And sometimes, there simply isn’t a tactical solution for that. 🐐
🚨🎙️Zlatan Ibrahimović on Lionel Messi’s World Cup hat-trick masterclass as Argentina beat Algeria 3-0:
🗣️ “Let me tell you something… this is what happens when the greatest of all time plays football.”
“Messi didn’t just have a good opening game… he arrived at the World Cup like he still owns the damn thing.”
“People talk about age, about the end of an era, about pressure at 38 going on 39… but he doesn’t feel any of that. He creates pressure for every defender in the tournament instead.”
“Algeria tried to sit deep, they tried to frustrate, they tried to compete… but when Messi gets the ball anywhere near the box, the game is basically over.”
“A hat-trick on the opening night of the World Cup? That’s not normal… that’s a statement. That’s a warning to every team left in this tournament.”
“And this is why Argentina won so comfortably — because when you have a player like him, you don’t need ten chances. You need one moment of magic… and he gave them three.”
“Now people will start talking again… ‘Is he still the best player in the world?’ I don’t talk. I show. And tonight, Messi showed everyone.”
“This was not just three points for Argentina… this was a message to the entire World Cup. The king is still here.”
Lionel Scaloni reacts emotionally after Lionel Messi’s hat-trick:
🗣️ “I honestly couldn’t hold it back anymore… when Lionel Messi scored that third goal, I completely broke down on the sidelines because of everything that moment represented.”
“It wasn’t just about the hat-trick or the scoreline… it was about everything he has done for this team, for this shirt, for this country, and for the millions of people who have followed his journey from the very beginning.”
“As a coach, you are supposed to stay calm, think clearly, make decisions, and control emotions in every situation… but sometimes football takes over and reminds you that you are also just a human being.”
“When you see a player give absolutely everything over so many years, carry so much pressure, and still perform at this level in a World Cup, it becomes emotionally overwhelming even from the touchline.”
“He doesn’t just score goals for Argentina or win matches… he carries the hopes, dreams, and emotions of an entire nation every single time he steps onto the pitch.”
“In that moment after the third goal, I wasn’t thinking like a coach anymore, I wasn’t thinking about tactics or the game… I was just proud, emotional, and deeply grateful to be witnessing something like that so close.”
“You look at him and you slowly realise that what we are watching is not normal anymore… this is something that belongs in football history forever, something that will never be repeated in the same way.”
“That hat-trick didn’t just change the game or the result… it created a moment of pure emotion that will stay with me for the rest of my life as a coach.”
Thierry Henry on Lionel Messi becoming the oldest player ever to score a World Cup hat-trick and the player with the most goals from outside the box in World Cup history:
🗣️ “I honestly don't know what more there is left to say about Lionel Messi anymore. Every time you think he has reached the top of the mountain, he somehow finds another peak that nobody else has ever climbed before.”
“The oldest player to score a World Cup hat-trick. Just stop and think about that for a second. At an age when most players are retired, coaching, or sitting in television studios, Messi is still breaking records on the biggest stage in football.”
“And it's not just the hat-trick that amazes me. He now has more World Cup goals from outside the box than anyone in history. That tells you everything about the level of technique, vision, and confidence we are talking about.”
“These are not lucky goals. These are moments of genius. The type of goals where everyone in the stadium knows what he wants to do, but nobody can stop him from doing it anyway.”
“What makes this even more incredible is that this is his sixth World Cup. Six World Cups. Different generations, different teammates, different opponents, yet the same outcome every single time Lionel Messi deciding matches.”
“People always ask what makes certain players special. Well, special players break records. Legends create records. Messi is doing both at the same time while carrying the expectations of an entire nation.”
“I've played against some of the greatest footballers in history, I've watched some of the greatest footballers in history, but what Messi continues to do at 38 years old simply doesn't make sense.”
“This is no longer about talent. This is no longer about numbers. This is football history unfolding right before our eyes, and every single match feels like another chapter in a story that nobody thought was possible.”
Call me crazy, but I think parents should determine what their teenagers do online rather than the government.
And that governments shouldn't use system-level ID checks to identify and monitor everything.
You are smarter than this Ro. Imagine if Bernie had taxed @elonmusk 100% on his PayPal capital gains. We would have no @Tesla or @SpaceX - none of those jobs or GDP. Who do you think allocated the capital better for society? He will already pay $100 B + in taxes - more than any human ever. I hope he donates some to kids via @TrumpAccounts to make every kid a shareholder in 🇺🇸 & continues investing all his heart, soul & money for the benefit of America & all humanity! 🇺🇸🚀🤍
