    Either when the world cup was in my country I didn’t go to any matches. Not that I could afford it, but even if I could I still wouldn’t have gone.
    This time I won’t even watch it on the TV. That’s how much I dislike that fat cunt paedo and his regime.

    (I also didn’t watch it when it was in Qatar.)

      Italy getting repeatedly eliminated from the world cup is one of the best things that happened to this country in the last years

      Not watching soccer on TV isn’t the anti-fascist resistance flex you think it is.

          Yes, boycotts matter. Real boycotts, like the Montgomery bus boycott that lasted for months and truly hurt the recipient financially - what MLK called “economic withdrawal”.

          Punctual boycotts like buying nothing for one day, or not watching something on TV, are just feel-good stuff that actually achieve nothing at all.

          Also, I will point out that it took a lot more than not listening to Hitler’s speeches on the radio to defeat him.

          So yeah, do not watch the matches if it makes you feel better. But it won’t change a damn thing.

      I haven’t watched international soccer since they awarded Russia and Qatar with the World Cup. Fucking corrupt pieces of shit supporting the worst people.

    Well no shit. Who wants to disclose their entire lives to a fascist government, and then be at the absolute mercy of a bunch of homeschooled ICE morons?

      This is basically the devil’s bargain all those Qatari social media influencers made

      Tourist should floor Canada and help their economy.

      But if you have to go to the US at least do not spend your money in red states.

        Canadian businesses are greedy also and from what I understand there is a shortage of bookings due to price. I heard they’ll be charging $80+ for parking at BMO field. Offensive.

    What, making yourself an international pariah and also actively being hostile towards anyone who even just looks foreign who’s in your borders is not good for tourism? Who could’ve guessed? I’m sure that spiking oil prices will fix it right
