Western Media Asked Iranian Footballers About the Strait of Hormuz?

South African comedian Trevor Noah says Western media outlets tried to “trap” Iranian footballers into answering questions about the US/Israeli war against Iran that has closed the Strait of Hormuz, through which 25 per cent of the world’s oil flows. Meanwhile, no such requests were made to US footballers.

Your citizenship really determines so much for you. As a Nigerian, your matter long ooo.

I had a Saudi classmate when I was fling my Masters. He explained to me that all Saudis in the UK were fully sponsored by the government. I asked what his plan was after school, he said he was going back home to take up a job. He didn't even like the UK. I don't blame him, he struggled with the language and culture.

I had Korean classmates (those ones are always rich and clean). No one was staying back or had plan to.

I saw Chinese classmate 2 years later. He had started a business with his babe. He told me the government encourages them to take loan to invest abroad. I thought we were just having a discussion. I didn't know he had his plan mapped out.

My Spanish friend (the only one I still talk to), I asked him when he was going to pick up his British passport since he was eligible for it having been in UK for many years, he said he didnt need it that his passport takes him where he needs to go. I spoke to him recently and he said he is looking to leave the UK soon. He wants to return home to Barcelona. That reminds me, he has been inviting me to Barcelona 🤦‍♂️

At the start of Covid, my Canadain flatmate packed his bag and left. He told me he would finish his program from there. I once asked how he was paying for his program (Law Undergraduate), he said he took a loan from the bank in Canada.

Then you look at Nigerians- we are always looking for how to stay back at all cost because home offers nothing. Conversation always centred around sponsorship jobs - even if it is care job. This is after working 12 hours shift through out your Masters to pay for your fees and cover for your living expenses. People are even so desperate, they are paying 10k to 12k for sponsorship job just to stay back.

For the record, people from countries that have never had a successful modern revolution need to learn to sit down and shut up more often when those with actual revolutions in progress are going about their business.

If Burkina Faso is receiving criticism from Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Cuban, North Korean or Iranian sources, such criticism can be taken seriously and acted on. The source makes the critique valid because they've actually been there and done that.

But if the criticism is coming from our chronically online brethren in White-istan, their cousins in Epstein-istan, and their eternally hapless southern vassals in Arab-istan and Afristan, it has all the value of a Child Rights bill sponsored by Ghislaine Maxwell.

If you haven't figured out how to stop your own taxes from being directly used to fund the wholesale murder of Sahelian villagers, Congolese shopkeepers, Iranian schoolchildren and Palestinian olive farmers; if your own government has revealed that it is controlled by a network of rich White-istanis who eat cute little white girls with pigtails and call their meat "jerky" and you did absolutely nothing about it except make upper case tweets with lots of exclamation marks, your opinions about Ibrahim Traoré, Burkina Faso, the Sahelian Alliance, or any other anti-imperial project are completely worthless and nobody needs them.

That Palestine flag on your Twitter display name has zero revolutionary value and nothing you say has any value. At best, you're a cheerleader and nothing more. So stay on the sidelines, wave your internet pom-poms and learn to shut the fuck up while the actual players on the field get things done.

Rant over.

"Everything is agendified".

In a world where literally the food you eat and the type of sex you enjoy is either heavily influenced or directly determined by rich people on another continent who own all the means of production including GMO patents and Pornhub.

The problem with a lot of you is that your minds are far too small to comprehend the size of trouble you are in.

You know nothing about the world you live in. You just exist mindlessly inside it. Like vegetation or shellfish.

Maybe, just maybe, at the highest levels of competition where even the tiniest differences in mentality can result in vast competitive differences, *maybe* having a national team made up of people who instinctively think of themselves as people from that nation would provide a slight competitive advantage over talented Congolese, Ivorian and Senegalese teams where half of the players think they're from France, and another third think they're from Belgium.

Maybe the fact that Harry Kane has no such identity crisis or colonial complex inside his head gives him that extra 0.1% of mental clarity to deliver when his country needs him. Maybe the fact that Yoan Wissa on the other hand has a head full of all this mental clutter contributes just a tiny little bit to dulling his output right when it needs to be sharpest.

Maybe football is a reflection of society, and a national football team reflects the character of the nation it represents. Maybe it is not possible for a society that genuinely takes no pride in itself to have a football team that takes pride in itself. Maybe it's no coincidence that in the entire history of the world cup, the competition has only been won by teams whose coach is indigenous.

Maybe the world cup is not about how individually great your Bayern Munich and Liverpool superstars are. Maybe it's about finding out whether those Villareal and Olympique Lyon stars can emotionally connect with the aspirations of the national team shirt they're wearing. Maybe neocolonial stalemate societies with zero state ambition and no shared sense of national project are never going to be anything other than colourful also-rans at the FIFA world cup.

Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about and I'm just a dickhead who overthinks everything. Maybe I shouldn't even bother posting this because what fucking needle does it move anyway.

Former South African FM Calls Out The West’s Double Standard On International Law

Naledi Pandor has a point.

Back in 2022, the South African former foreign minister argued at a Council on Foreign Relations event that international law must be applied equally, not according to Western interests. At the time, Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine was on people’s minds. Liberals in the West flaunted Ukrainian flags on their homes while ignoring that the US-led NATO had provoked the war over many years.

Yet, when Israel invaded Gaza, flattened its cities, put its hospitals out of service, and k*lled thousands of women and children, international law didn’t hold the same weight. The West has continued to arm and fund its ally, Israel, and permitted it to ignore International Court of Justice rulings to end its att*cks, its occupation and its ap*rtheid against Palestinians.

When will international law ever really matter? Drop us a comment if you’ve got an idea.

Doesn't matter how much talent you have. As long as you believe you don't have the right to be on the same pitch as your opposition, you're right. They ALL have a huge mental block that I've been watching for decades since my first world cup in 1994.

You can take Senegal or Nigeria with all their superstars and put them on that pitch against Uzbekistan and I promise you they will find a way to look like an inferior team next to Uzbekistan, even though that makes no sense.

I've seen one of the most absurdly stacked Nigeria teams of all time, where 7 of the starting 11 were starters in the Premier League or La Liga, and they found a way to not just lose to this shit Greece side, but also get completely dominated in the process, completely unable to move the ball and resorting to the usual long ball, hit and hope nonsense.

It makes no sense unless you realise that all African teams south of the Sahara suffer from a debilitating inferiority complex that has never been addressed. If you don't believe you can do something, you are correct.

Thabo Mbeki: Who Is Trying To Isolate South Africa From the Continent?

Former South African President Thabo Mbeki asks who exactly is trying to isolate South Africa from the rest of the continent.

From South Africans recently being booted from Malawi to Africans across the continent rooting for any country’s football team that played against South Africa in the 2026 World Cup, something is definitely off.

[❗️ @Drealad0nis]

The average Nigerian faces a fundamental problem that goes beyond economics or infrastructure:

This lady came out lamenting that her ₦10 million house she rented was on the verge of flooding. Her distress was genuine until she looked around and saw that her neighbors were suffering even more. At that point, her tone shifted. She burst into laughter, visibly relieved and almost comforted by the comparative misfortune.

This moment is telling. Even amid personal hardship, the reflex is not solidarity or collective urgency, but quiet satisfaction that “at least I’m not the worst off.” Progress becomes measured less by real improvement and more by staying one step ahead of the next person. The result is a society where shared problems persist because the incentive is rarely to solve them together, but simply to endure them slightly better than others.
