    Don’t watch.

    Boycott the damn thing.

    Don’t allow the United States to have the win.

      Yeah I’m actively avoiding this one. I might even see if I can add a filter to adguard to block all mention of it.

      I’m hoping my experience of this World Cup is like my experience of this year’s Eurovision - I knew it was coming but it’s only afterwards that I found out it had already happenned.

    If you don’t want to accept international travellers don’t host international events.

        In the Fascism 1.0 era, fascists were not about keeping people out. Quite the opposite. They were about (a) keeping people in (e.g. in Italy) and (b) expanding borders outwards to create lebensraum/spazio vitale and then either forcibly assimilate, expel or …exterminate.

        Keeping people out is a Fascism 2.0 issue.

    Offer to host the world cup. Freak out when Africans show up.

    The Swiss midfielder Breel Embolo was also denied an entry visa last week, but Swiss authorities said they had successfully appealed against the decision.

    Of course the one who was born in Cameroon

    If it’s being held in the US, everyone involved should boycott the fuck outta it.

    Don’t come here. It’s a shithole where the bumblefucks in charge will have you disappeared without legal cause.

      If it’s being held in the US

      These things are already decided a long time ago. This world cup will be held in North America, the next one in the Mediterranean, and the one after that in Saudi Arabia in 2034.

        While yes, they’re decided ages ago, nobody anticipated the mess that is US right now, back then, and I would agree, any self respecting pro-humanity entity would reject this supposed world cup

    Considering how much of the Trump family is involved in gambling websites, I assume they don’t want him in the country because they can’t bribe him easily.

    I think it will be interesting to see the attendance figures from Canada and Mexico versus the Fascist States of America.
