i rly do think there is a line between being critical of saudi, their involvement in football, where all the money is coming from, the millions of human rights violations that the government perpetuates and covers up via sportwashing … and then just straight up dunking on football cultures outside of europe (specifically england/germany/italy) and acting like the fans there are inferior in some way (even if they are smaller in number that does not mean that the football being played is worth any less) and implying consciously or subconsciously that the footballers who grew up in the system there don’t deserve to play football. i’ll be honest, way too many ppl cross the line.
#fine to rb#sorry but it’s actually infuriating to me especially with this henderson business how so many ppl are like#haha lol he passed up moving to a smaller pl club and now he’s playing in front of 5 fans instead of playing in front of full stadiums 🤪#like yeah he should be criticised absolutely for buying into the sportswashing and especially everything regarding lgbt ppl#but some ppl move WEIRDLY like there are other countries outside of europe that have a footballing culture or just are genuinely interested#in footy and to demean the fans and the ppl that are not involved in sportwashing is crazy to me icl#like the inherent xenophobia idgi#maybe i’m deeping it too much but i grew up watching asian football and i was frequently one of like 100 ppl in the stands#it didn’t mean any less to me. and i hate the condescending tone taken on the internet when it comes to this.#rahul.txt
