western news outlets and reporters are claiming that messi wearing the bisht, the black garment/overcoat, “ruined” (the telegraph) the best moment of his life.

“it’s a shame they’ve covered his argentina shirt” (gary lineker, bbc pundit). “just why, why would they do that?”

do you have any idea how tone-deaf that comes across as? do you know how expensive this piece of clothing is? did you consider that this is a way an arab host is honouring his guest? by giving him the same cloak their royalty wear? did you consider the fact that no one else cares??????

messi himself posted the picture on instagram 😭. anyone can see that he didn’t look at all uncomfortable when they were putting it on him. western media is clearly more disturbed about it than he is. he just looks like he’s having the best moment of his life and he couldn’t care less if he was wearing a spacesuit right now, but thank you to western media for enforcing the idea it was a problem.

oh and even if he did have a problem with it, can i just make it clear that NO ONE, less still you morally superior westerners, is allowed to talk about someone else’s culture with such a ridiculously distasteful and arrogant tone.

honestly in a way i’m so glad this world cup is over because now i can stop hearing western media’s constant passive aggressive, frankly racist attitude towards arab/muslim culture. good riddance…

watching the final the way god intended it to be watched (the match on one screen tumblr open on the other)

Argentina winning 4-3 will be full circle from 2018 and that’ll be beautiful

[queenielacy]

Croatia NT: “So we equalize at the last minute, take it to extra time, and win on penalties.”

France NT: “Write that down! Write that down!”

[dragonmp93]

This is going to do wonders for Argentina's already inflated god complex.

The french did what they could, so I salute them.

- Signed, a latino who is not looking forward that Argentina is going to rub this cup in everyone's face until 2025 at minimum.

TSN… describe Messi’s penalty goal as “class” one more time and I swear to god…

Like, of course he scored…. who tf misses penalties??? (Other than Harry Kane lmao ooop)

Pls mute wc 2022 tag if u don’t want to hear me screaming into the void
