"Thanks for the World Cup winning assist Nico, now please kindly fuck off" - Those people, probably

They're better than me, I'd definitely not play for a people that hate me.

It’s like everywhere else for every one that hates you there’s 20 that love you and buy your jersey

Just like in America sports is a way to break down racial barriers… not all the way but it’s a start

Spanish people hate Moroccans for historical reasons, they still can't get over al Andalus

3

u/Frosty_Detective_882 29m ago

They can’t get over themselves. Being openly racist is acceptable in Spain.

u/pbnjandmilk 3m ago

Still ass-hattery though. Same thing with the Argies and Brits.

u/LeftofCenter25 40m ago

Damn those Argentinians..

u/Kloowie 26m ago

Yeah they aren't saying Moro, sadly it's moNo (monkey) No one ever said Spanish weren't racist, Vini junior has been through a LOT playing in Spain.

u/Orpdapi 34m ago

It’s crazy how as racist as the US can be at times, you still never hear a “go back where you came from!” from the stands directed at an athlete.

We had a Brewers fan threatening to call ICE on a Mexican-American Dodgers fan. If you think she's the only one.....

That was yelled all the time at James stewart in motocross. Bubba Wallace in nascar. Sunisa Lee in Olympics…

Because the Black people here aren’t immigrants usually.

1

u/NSFWdontview 32m ago

Cuz America has the largest African population outside of Africa

2

u/Every_Television_980 16m ago

I think its more that black people aren’t significantly immigrants in the us. The us doesnt have an ethnic identity like almost everwhere else so its not as easy to just yell go home to someone based on their race.

-1

u/s33n_ 21m ago

Thats not close to true. France has substantially more for sure. And the UK might as well depending on what stats you look at. Despite having less than a quarter of the population of the us.

2

u/ckhaulaway 19m ago

14% of our population is black, what are the percentages for the countries you've given?

1

u/s33n_ 14m ago

We are counting all black people as African now?

1

u/NSFWdontview 14m ago

France is behind US

1

u/s33n_ 13m ago

Got a source? Or are you counting all back people as african?

1

u/NSFWdontview 12m ago

They are African racially and where they came from. Why do you think they are called African Americans

1

u/s33n_ 10m ago

Africa isn't a race. It's a country of origin. And most people called African American are from America.

1

u/NSFWdontview 8m ago

African is a race just like caucasians as they originate from the caucus region

u/ZWC11 14m ago

This isn’t even remotely true lol

u/s33n_ 12m ago

3.5m people born in Africa live in France. In the us. Its 2.5m in America.

Internet thought their black squares ended racism 🤣

u/Silver_Detective8630 24m ago

Good to see everyone is learning it’s not just a few western countries that are racist, the world is f***d

Harassing the most promising young player on your team is certainly a bold strategy

u/PastWorldly2469 20m ago

About time people in these crowds took care of these arseholes. If you’re silent, you’re complicit

u/humptheedumpthy 19m ago

People call America racist and yes America absolutely has racial problems. But it would be EXTREMELY rare if not unheard of for American fans to OPENLY shout racist chants at players.

u/Nahmsayin1 5m ago

It happens more than you think. Maybe not as much as in other countries but it does happen here

Ima get the popcorn and wait for the Argentinian haters come and defend Spain 😭

u/Aetheriusman 37m ago

I hate the actions of argentine fans and players and the actions of these spanish people.

Broke you brain? Didn't it?

Truth he told, hispanic people are super racist, if that happened in Brazil that guy shouting would spend a night with the police. After going to the hospital to treat his bruises.

1

u/Ephinem 30m ago

Hispanic people are racist? Wow so are white people, Asians, black people. The broken brain here is yours for not seeing the irony on calling “Hispanic” people racist. If you hate Argentina bc some fans are racist then you must not like anyone team or country. So then what’s the point in engaging ? Sit this one out

1

u/Aetheriusman 22m ago

Hispanic people are racist because of how they react to racism, it's either very open or the people that may feel it's wrong don't do anything about it.

You'll catch a beating in Brazil if you say shit like this in the open. Or you'll end up in jail, just like the hispanics that went to jail here recently due to racism. The argentine lawyer, there was this other dude, I don't know his nationality, but he was caught saying he wanted to take a black boy as slave, he went to jail too.

Tou can't stop the thoughts of people, but you can punish them publicly berating someone over something they can't change. And they honestly wouldn't and shouldn't.

2

u/Ephinem 12m ago

So what ? If you go to South Korea they won’t even let you in places for being another Asian country let alone a different race! You assuming a whole nation is racist because they are Hispanic is bigoted and they exactly the same thinking that racist people use. What is not clicking in your head ?

0

u/Every_Television_980 22m ago

I disagree, The most racist place in the world, and the least racist places in the world both still have racists. Disliking a fan base due racism is not saying all other fan bases dont have a single racist. Its because racism is more pervasive in the fan base. Is that not an obvious distinction? You really think its as simple as well everyone has racists so then you must dislike everyone?

2

u/Ephinem 18m ago

So who has more racists? Spain or Argentina? Tell me now to know who to cheer for in the future. So every game I watch you expect someone to know which of the two teams is more racist to tell who to cheer for ? Sounds exhausting but you carry on

All countries are tribal and racist what’s new

1

u/AwhHellYeah 11m ago

This usage of “tribal” has always bothered me, “factional” would be a more applicable since a country is culturally a tribe.

0

u/Aetheriusman 35m ago

Funny enough you can fight this type of barbaric tribalism.

You won't try this in Brazil, because the people will beat the shit out of you and the police will take you to jail.

Unfortunately the only answer to tribals is violence, state sponsored or not.

2

u/NSFWdontview 33m ago

Brazil is the most tribal and violent, they kill foreigners about soccer

0

u/Aetheriusman 32m ago

Tribal? No.

Criminally violent? Unfortunately, yes.

Both are easily resolved with some good old violence.

1

u/NSFWdontview 30m ago

Brazil is extremely dangerous for teams from other countries. They even will kill their own players for a mistake in a game

2

u/Particular-Ring5110 23m ago

That was Columbia and saying he was killed for the own goal is over simplifying… he was in a bar and some cartel connected individuals started an argument with him over the play.. things escalated he ended up being shot and killed

They did not specifically set out to hunt him down and shoot him over the own goal.. it led to an argument with some nasty and dangerous people

u/CaliKindalife 34m ago

Didnt this guy steal someone's girlfriend. A girl he found on Instagram and with a bf and said I like you dump him come with me. She sucks but so does he for that.

What does that have to do with this video ? And are you asking a question or telling us something? So many questions
