Enoki33's JournalWhile I agree with your statement that
euro24 is of a higher standard, as is evident even at the club level, l view the WC through a slightly different lens. If the world can come together in 90 min increments to forget our geopolitical threats, our petty differences, skin color and religion, then surely there might still be some hope that mankind will intellectually mature and planet Earth may have a better chance of survival. Such is the power of the WC.
Note: l think Pele once said much the same.
Seems to me there are many members
here who have repeatedly posted that the animosity has been created and stoked by trolls who are arms of Putin's propaganda machine. Posters who disregard this are unwitting pawns in the geopolitical game. Democrats have way too much in common for the divisive architects to succeed. Just my two cents.
Wish it's only vengeful tattling. In reality it
is a deep seated hatred of anyone seen as a threat to their concept of the role of the dominant society, and the exclusive privileges it provides. It appears to be something they are afraid of even admitting.
France is not going to invade Niger. Any
plan they may have is likely at best a contingency one. There are other ways of dealing with Wagner with much less complications.
It will be many years before the full
scope of trump's betrayal is fully understood and recorded in history. Suspect it may very well doom the future political viability of the party willing to cast their lot with him for a few dollars and scant praise. They are doomed and do not know it.
Recall how his initial actions all
benefited Russia when he first became president?. The secret documents handover was the final betrayal. He is truly without one good redeeming factor.
Think the despotic Putin wannabe may
have opened a whole new category. Spies did, and do operate in the dark. This bigot betrays his country openly, and worst, he uses it blatantly as propaganda. He is possibly the single most dangerous person on earth.
Have friends who are moving to Portugal.
Their reasons are similar to those discussed here. However they do have a grim outlook for the future because of the corrosive influence of legalized bribery known as lobbying, the destructive influence of American oligarchy and the corruption of the educational system are some they mentioned. The supreme corruption of the courts was also prominent. They also singled out the propaganda of Fox and that the likelihood of American democracy becoming a farce offers favorable odds. Hope they are very wrong.
I suspect it has taken this long for a
variety of reasons, foremost of which is his past catching up with him. There is a lot there that lays the groundwork for his current betrayal. The scope and depth of selling out his country will be breathtaking. Again, just my opinion.
I am referring here to a specific group
that target other members who are dedicated supporters of a particular popular sport they disagree with, and have no real understanding of. It sometimes borders on harassment, fed by simple disrespect. Guess there is always a price to pay that others are oblivious to that has always been a part of life.
