I don't want to hear another word about how much white European visitors are enjoying ranch dressing while team officials, Africa's top referee, and now one of the world's most celebrated fans are turned away from the World Cup. The USA is an utterly unfit host — it's as simple as that

The attacks in Edinburgh, in which an armed bare-chested white man terrorised Muslims, leaving five people injured, don't feature on a single newspaper front page this morning. Two tier journalism

We’re straight back to the 70s/ 80s racist attacks here. Depressingly similar, both in method and lack of coverage, to the 1981 attack in Walthamstow: southasianbritain.org/events/murde...

Fascists in Belfast set fire to buildings with people inside them. People of colour left work early to stay indoors. This is being actively encouraged by the world’s richest man whose openly pro-white nationalist platform X is still used by the UK government www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Once again, you might not like the word ‘soccer’, but it’s: a) Not an Americanism; it is a 19th century English private school abbreviation of ‘Association’ rules, much as ‘rugger’ familiarises ‘Rugby’ b) Commonplace and useful in countries where ⚽️ is not the key code of football 🇦🇺 🇮🇪 🇺🇸 etc.

Insane dystopian shit here, totally unacceptable. I expect politicians and commentators to be outraged by it, regardless of their opinion of the crimes these people were convicted of.
