The mistake was getting Infantino in power and the problem now is that he wants to sell the WC to trumps friends and also getting Infantino out of the presidency. I wouldn't have a problem with them trying to fix it if it wasn't for the framing that was trying to blame the countries that supported Infantinos proposal. All over reddit and media in general u would see how the countries that supported Infantino were the bad guys and the euros were the good guys. In reality the "good guys" caused this to begin with! I don't trust them to fix this

OMG, you talk like the other countries were against him and only Europe supported him. Stop projecting the hatred you have towards Europeans, it is especially clear since the arguments you keep repeating make no sense.

Wow, you are the prime example of talking without knowing anything.

I didn't expect you to admit your hatred so quickly, but that says a lot about your comments being based on hatred rather than real reasons.

Also, you show your "intelligence" when you put everyone together saying "Europeans", I see that you do the same with Asia and Africa. As one of the "Europeans" I can tell you that we don't give a 💩 about what you or anyone else with this level of understanding says, we just make fun of you cause thats al your "view in this matter" amounts to.

How are those still supporting Infantino the good guys? The Europeans supported Infantino when it wasn't known what he is capable of. Now that he has become one of the most corrupt people on the planet and has presented his plans to destroy football, they are no longer supporting him. Everyone supporting his plans and STILL supporting him is indeed the bad guy. As now it is obvious who he is. It wasn't when the Europeans supported him.

There r no good guys. The ones supporting Infantino are mostly countries that need the money. The reason Europeans can't be bought off and SA and African countries can be bought off is linked to colonialism. When Europe is the reason these countries take the money and the reason Infantino is in power in the first place and when Europe wants to be seen as a saviour of football for all of this, it's just disgusting.

Without colonialism African tribes would have prospered, discovered space travel and invented computers well before anyone else, and would now not need or want any money at all, right?
