How Americans be arguing in football

When winning: "if our best athletes adopt soccer from the get go, we'll dominate every world cup" "he's the Lebron James of soccer"

when losing: "ya'll be speaking German now if it wasn't for us" "your country's GDP is smaller than Texas" or some other state.

i mean all this thread sounds like is a bunch of people with political opinions tainting the World Cup

"america good, america bad, trump good, trump bad waaaah"

i swear, every person on the planet is just an annoyance at this point. i have to remember these sentiments literally only exist on reddit because people are generally too embarrassed to say them out loud

That’s what I’ve been noticing too.

This is seriously a Reddit problem, not an IRL problem.

I’ve met tourists and foreigners here in the US for the World Cup IRL and they’re having a blast.

Redditors just make everything about politics and sucks the fun out of everything.

I’m going to keep enjoying the games and just disengage from these subreddits bc Redditors are miserable to interact with.

It's not about politics ultimately? Trump is not hated because of his "politics" first and foremost. He's always been a cunt and garbage human, and is even worse as a president. Don't forget that millions of people are impacted and are suffering because of HIS decisions, not just Americans. And FIFA is corrupt. Don't be in denial, people everywhere absolutely did want the US to loose and Belgium to win. Not because we hate any US-players but yeah, a line has been crossed.

Funny thing is they’re all crawling over to this American site everyday to complain about the U.S. So much irony in how these Euro dorks behave online. Why don’t they go have fun on their shitty WhatsApp.

Don't vote a garbage human for president who makes the whole world suffer then, next time.

And you guys need to not take everything so seriously. Plenty of that online in the world cup and football subreddits.

Also always with the "your country is so tiny, it's like x US state". As if size matters? They just got beat by one of those tiny countries!

It’s pretty funny, but Belgium’s GDP is a bit less than that of the metro area of my city. Not even the entire Bay Area, but the SF-Oakland-Hayward agglomeration. Wild.
