@bronzeagemantis Preponderance of powerful negroids may also benefit soccer by forcing a pivot to tougher players across the board after many years of Latin diving and theatrics.
English
@bronzeagemantis Good take. Very possible on current evidence that afroids are the best at soccer (esp. when nurtured with European training+money+analytics), like how for a longer time they have been best at running.
So what? HBD is real and sports alone don’t make a country great

Soccer has always been international and “diverse” with Brazil long time world leader. I don’t see a problem in expanding number of contending teams. If they’re not good, you can beat them.
I don’t understand argument here RE “allow”? Are games are fixed?

We need an investigation as to why FIFA explicitly set out to increase the "inclusivity" of the 2026 World Cup teams and decrease the number of European players. I have the documents demonstrating that the intense Africanization you are witnessing in this World Cup is NOT a result of talent but a concerted effort by FIFA to bring about "greater global representation in the World Cup...through slot reallocations favoring non-European confederations, and rhetoric around inclusivity" Here are the documents: a. theballbusiness.com/fifa-world-cup… b. carleton.ca/profbrouard/wp… FIFA approved the expansion of teams from 32 to 48 teams starting in 2026 in order "to increase participation, particularly from Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean." FIFA frames this as making the tournament "more global than ever" and reducing thereby "Euro-centrism" in soccer = reducing the fact that Europeans and White guys like Messi have dominated the sport for a century. This should not surprise us: FIFA officially promotes "diversity," "inclusion," "anti-discrimination," and human rights in official policies, World Cup strategies, and campaigns. The goal of FIFA and Western multiculturalism is the marketing of football as a "universal, multicultural sport." They will never allow a winning White team again. Only teams that are not as good will be allowed to be White so you can see them lose against negrofied teams. The New York Times reported this on June 5: how FIFA set out to elevate African and reduce Europe: nytimes.com/athletic/73248…

@BowTiedMara Fake news, the witch doctor lifted the curse himself after the Ghana match, allowing Kane to score against Panama
English
Three Peruvians have helped England advance to the round of 16 by taking the curse of the Ghanaian witch doctor away from Harry Kane.
Judging by his performance today, the Peruvian medicine worked

@mythPloughman @eugyppius1 I predict a quiet normie turning-away from football, as has happened in France.
Top-level club football is already N’Gubu vs Obongo at a much higher standard, international football can’t compete.

Yes, let's discuss France. 1. There are countless examples of all-white or almost-all-white teams outperforming in soccer, such as Croatia, Argentina, Uruguay (ruling out "it's just because they're rich" explanations), Denmark, Portugal, the Netherlands, Iceland's "golden generation"... You could just as easily make the opposite argument. 2. Is an almost-100% black team "diverse"? 3. As we are seeing this year apparently black footballers while very good in many places are apparently bad at shootouts so you could argue it's why France lost in 2022 to all-white Argentina team. 4. In 2002 France was heavily favored to win and yet lost in the knock-out stages, subsequent reporting showed it was because of ethnoreligious strife within the team. Could diversity not always be a strength? 5. In 2006 France famously lost to all-white Italy team after Materazzi insulted Zinedine Zidane's mother and the latter chimped out, something which only befuddles people who have never interacted with Maghrebi Muslims (interesting that in spite of major public pressure Zidane has always refused to apologize for his chimp-out). 6. The audience for soccer in France has been slowly taken over by the audience for rugby which was a very niche sport when I was a child; although nobody wants to say this outloud the reason is obviously that rugby is white-coded while soccer is non-white-coded. In French culture, soccer has gone from a factor of social unity that transcended class/culture/geography/etc. to a factor of class/race division. French soccer is probably dead over the long run because people are watching less and less. 7. See below for how France achieves such excellent "diversity"

@eugyppius1 As a centrist I feel completely unenthusiastic about watching teams of Africans nominally play under European flags, but as you say, normies simply don't think this way. Even if they don't like Ahmed the rapist, they'll still cheer for N'Gubu and Obongo when they kick a ball.

Beyond the ethnonat right, the other group really assblasted by football patriotism is the activist left, for mostly symmetrical reasons: they see the patriotism expression as hostile and confused, &they regard sport fandom as a distraction from core activist preoccupations.
English
@zz_gecko @eugyppius1 Meanwhile the French team is riding high on a strategy of “pack the team with as many fast, powerful Africans as possible and crush all opponents under a blizzard of goals”, and has nevertheless alienated the French public as @pegobry_en repeatedly highlights.
English
@zz_gecko @eugyppius1 But they don’t win. Germany’s footballing collapse since 2014 coincided perfectly with Merkel flinging the country’s doors wide open and the browning of the national team. Correlation? Causation? Doesn’t matter, they don’t win.

The Stade shooting case just gets crazier and crazier.
The shooter, Fatih G., was angry that his child had been placed in protective custody following a suspected case of shaken baby syndrome.
He bought the gun he used for the shooting on the black market in Berlin for 4000 Euro.
His getaway driver was a 65 year-old migration NGO employee named Sylvia S. This woman was also the godfather to Fatih G.'s injured child. Days prior to the shooting, Sylvia S. had just circulated a long memo to various journalists advocating on Fatih G.'s behalf and whining about the injustice of the case.
Sylvia S. drove Fatih G. to the scene of the shooting, for a "support plan meeting" with youth welfare types. Fatih G. shot up the meeting and Sylvia S. drove him away from the scene of the crime. Both were arrested after police shot out the tyres of Fatih G.'s Mercedes. Sylvia S. has since been released.
eugyppius@eugyppius1
In fact the shooter seems to have been a Kurd or an Arab with Turkish citizenship and also a member of the Miri Clan. He shot up the shelter over a custody dispute ahead of a meeting he was supposed to have with his (I guess estranged) baby momma and child.

@dr_duchesne The coordinated MSM orgasm over “9 out of the 10 African teams advanced from the group stage” was very obvious.

Have you noticed the 2026 World Cup been thoroughly negrofied? This was NOT a result of talent but a concerted effort by FIFA to bring about "greater global representation in the World Cup...through slot reallocations favoring non-European confederations, and rhetoric around inclusivity"
I have the documents demonstrating this.
a. theballbusiness.com/fifa-world-cup…

You could feed generative AI 50 years worth of Birmingham Pakistani behaviour and it still couldn’t come up with a video as Paki as this. Some people are calling it the Pakiest video of all time.

@pegobry_en Whereas other Euro countries are doing colourblind selection position-by-position, resulting in an unfocused mess.
English
@pegobry_en Very strong take here. For a long time now France has taken a very “American Football” approach, filling its team with powerful Africans who are good at scoring goals (and not at penalty shootouts).

Much is being made over the penalty kicks but simply in general the German and Dutch teams overall lack class and aura. Not sure I’d even blame diversity since Portugal and Spain also somewhat struggle here while France does not.

Now do France. The argument falls apart. The French team has been ethnically diverse for quite some time. They have been one of the world’s best international teams for a decade. Winners in 2018. Runners up in 2022 (lost on penalties). Favourites for this World Cup.

@Steve_Sailer @nytimes @TheAthleticFC >bring back golden goal (sudden death, first goal wins)
>remove 30-min limit on extra time, it continues till someone scores
>remove all limits on subs: manager can switch out all 11 players in one go, rest star striker 10 mins then bring him back in, whatever
English
@nytimes @TheAthleticFC American football has tried various tie-breakers and they don't work all that well. But it has fewer draws after regulation time because it's higher score and uses a multiple increment scoring system so that a close game might be 21-20 rather than 3-3.
English
From @TheAthleticFC: Penalty shootouts are brutal. Is there a better way to settle tied games? A fairer way? A more fitting test of skills?
