Not only are these more popular here, but they have much established domestic leagues and far better pipelines to reach the professional level than soccer does here. If someone in the US is a great athlete at a young age, it simply doesn’t make much sense for them to pursue soccer.

I quite literally said “more popular sports HERE” as in the country of the United States of America. I acknowledge that most of the world doesn’t give a fuck about American football, that doesn’t make it any less popular in America and thus a bigger draw for young athletes instead of soccer. Same with basketball, baseball, hell even hockey.

Americans seemingly can’t understand the idea of god-given talent. The two greatest footballers of all time were Maradona and Messi (5’5 and 5’7). Being 6’5 and benching 185kg isn’t going to give you a better centre forward 🤣

We’re behind anything sports related at the time its happening. Hockey is a great example, I know a lot of people that don’t give a fuck about it but they still watched the gold medal game and were happy we won. Obviously we’d be happy if we won because thats our team, but most of us don’t really care if we don’t because we don’t pay attention to soccer. If you can’t accept that then thats on you.

@MalsSports @mattlabelle You’re acting like a lot of Americans weren’t behind this team….

Cue the U.S. sports fans saying, “If we cared about soccer as much as American football we’d have 6 Messis and 5 Ronaldos” or my favorite, “this tournament doesn’t matter anyway” You finished the same place as Canada just two days later 😂

@AntardeepanRoy @IcelEomering @TitusCEO @AaronBastani Speed cannot be learned lmfao

@IcelEomering @TitusCEO @AaronBastani It's the technical skills which are the core of football. Strength and Speed can be learned.

@NeiFre28 @Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok Whether it was directly or indirectly, it was by their order.

European officers (also Belgian) in King Leopold’s private army explicitly ordered hands be collected, and it was actually so routine that quotas for hands sometimes existed alongside the rubber quotas. So yes, the Belgian’s were cutting off their hands, I changed nothing. Maybe actually read instead of grabbing a random quote off the internet.

Belgium used black slaves in the Congo until 1960.

@theblockspot We just don’t have the players for anything to change. Our top athletes have too many better options than soccer.

USA in 2006… Last in Group USA in 2010… Round of 16 L USA in 2014… Round of 16 L USA in 2018… Missed World Cup USA in 2022… Round of 16 L USA in 2026… Round of 16 L Something must change. This is just not good enough.

@Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok Like your entire timeline is just you retweeting shit about how bad America and our president is, I caught you bro 💀💀💀

@GoIdenBay @591actual @kane @grok Then I also counterd with the slaughter of native Americans, and the trans Atlantic slave trade. Which you called «conquest», which make the comment come across as very «white supremacy». So yeah. Who’s to talk about low Iq?

@Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok Like just admit you were trying to dunk on someone you thought was MAGA with an incredibly uninformed comparison and move on. You can’t win this, you look more 100x ignorant than anyone else in this whole chain.

And you’re just being even more uneducated now. It was a conquest, because that is what is happened historically all over the world. Sure we see its wrong now, there is no argument from there, but you run a history podcast and cry white supremacy over calling historical events exactly what they are? Is it Spanish supremacy to call what the Spaniards did in South America, the encomienda system, forced labor, the near-total destruction of the Taíno, mass killings during the conquests of the Aztec and Inca empires, and so on, as conquest? How about Roman Supremacy for their mass enslavement of the Mediterranean and far beyond that being called conquests? Mongol supremacy? Islamic supremacy? How about the Bantu in Africa, can we refer to their expansion as a conquest or would that be a Bantu supremacist type of comment? I’d hate if people thought I was a Bantu supremacist. You can’t run a history podcast with this level of bias dude, I feel incredibly bad for your listeners if you even have any.

Did I say conquest? No I didn’t, I also didn’t try to compare Jim Crow laws to what was going on in Congo. It doesn’t matter what you say after that dude there is no coming back from making such an incredibly ignorant and disrespectful comparison. That was just so wildly dismissive and inconsiderate of what the Congolese people were going through less than 100 years ago, and all just because you wanted to try and dunk on America. And you tried to call me maga after such an uneducated and honestly offensive comparison? This whole exchange is embarrassing for you at best.

Yet you did none of that, you instantly called me maga and attempted to accuse me of being ok with these things because I called you out for comparing Jim Crow laws to the Belgian’s cutting off the hands of their Congolese slaves as punishment for not meeting rubber quotas and to prove to their superiors that they didn’t waste bullets on who they believed were inferior people. How the actual fuck do you run a history podcast and think that is a sane comparison to make? You did nothing but prove you have some weird hatred boner towards America and do literally anything to try and push that agenda.

@GoIdenBay @591actual @kane @grok I could also bring up my own country’s atrocities against the Sami People. Ypue contry just come across badly because of all the shitt you done internationally. People view you as war mongers, and rscists.

@Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok You compared Jim Crow laws to Belgiums record in the Congo, arguably the most brutal Colonial history in the entire timeline of human history, that is wildly low iq. So yeah I am going to call it a low iq and blatant agenda.

@GoIdenBay @591actual @kane @grok We are! Lmao wtf are you talking about? You keep bringing up «low Iq agenda», lmao. We were thought about the great war, and second world war in secondary school. I also know that it was The Soviets, and NOT the Americans who entered Berlin first.

Not to mention when the Spaniards came over in the 1500s and wiped out literally 90% of the Indigenous population of the Americas in less than 200 years. How about the Dutch and the French running slave trades to bring Africans over here? Or the Portuguese being the first ones to bring Enslaved Africans to the americas? But you wanna sit and compare laws prohibiting people from using the same restrooms to literal slavery still happening in the 1960s. You are so fucking outclassed here it isn’t even fun for me to argue like Jesus Christ you are dumb

@GoIdenBay @591actual @kane @grok Lmao then you shouldn’t be ok with destroying an entire people, putting them in reservations, and be ok with it. Using thousands of black people as slaves. And then having a law that forbids people off color to use the same rest rooms as whites

Did I do it? Did I say I’m ok with it? No I didn’t say anything remotely close to that. What I am saying is that I am sick of complete fucking loons like you acting as though the US is only country to ever commit these kinds of acts. If you look into the history of nearly any country on the planet you will find actions that were as bad if not worse. You don’t do that though because you’re critical thinking skills aren’t physically able to reach a level deeper than “AmEriCa BaD Me GoOd 🤤🤤🤤”

@Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok I just a finished my masters degree in history, I’m certain I know all history better than you would ever be able to comprehend at your low intelligence level

@GoIdenBay @591actual @kane @grok Yet I know your history probably better than you do

@591actual @Wellthatagedwel @kane @grok Like God fucking forbid I like my country I guess lmao

@GoIdenBay @Wellthatagedwel @kane @grok Same.

@Wellthatagedwel @591actual @kane @grok Didn’t vote for him, don’t like him, just think you’re a fucking idiot bud

@591actual @GoIdenBay @kane @grok Fuck you maga pricks
