fwiw, the fact this country’s one major attempt at socialist (or at least social democracy) policy was constructed around redlining the benefits out of Black neighborhoods is kinda the primordial sin of US Progressivism that I think does need to be acknowledged and addressed more

People keep asking the Iranian players if they support LGBTQ rights.

Why doesn’t someone ask the U.S. players if they support the U.S funded genocide in Palestine?

🚨 Iran captain Mehdi Taremi just exposed @FIFAcom and the US:

“This is a disaster World Cup. Infantino promised to fix everything in our locker room… he did nothing. We can’t stay in Seattle — forced back to Tijuana every time. They want us out.”

Visa denials for staff. Day-before travel from Mexico. No recovery. Constant harassment because Iran refuses to bow.

This isn’t sport. It’s political sabotage by the empire using the World Cup as a weapon.

FIFA claims neutrality while Infantino plays lapdog. Iranian players still fighting with dignity.

Expose it. Stand with the players.

Voters left the 2024 cycle with a different (and more accurate) understanding of the priorities of Dem party leadership: not stopping Trump — as was assumed — but retaining their own power and relevance.

Establishment dug its own grave through its own actions. Cause and effect

I think part of what makes this account’s work so satisfying is they are doing a form of pattern recognition that is computerlike in many ways but actually requires a soul to pull off. Proof humans are still on top
