The Enzo Fernandez Situation

The Enzo Fernandez situation is a serious one, but how will it effect his club side and the teammates that will take offence to him, and the rest of the Argentina squad's chants after their Copa America victory v Colombia?

They make the British look like saints in comparison) and say that their lands were FRENCH before “leaving” (France didn’t leave) and then wondering why the peoples of the countries they helped screw over now go to their country when they are desperate (no, it CANT be due to the language barrier) to live their and turn out to be far better sportsmen (if the French don’t want them, just don’t allow them into your sports). Ironically, the players of African descent have an ACTUAL French background due to colonialism, so criticising why they play for said country “whilst not being French in any way” is false just down to Frances colonial past.

@@NawUniqueHandleBut surely the best way to beat racism is to stop treating black people differently… If you give positive discrimination to counter-balance the negative discrimination, 1) they will never match up and equalize, and 2) you will constantly be trying to _measure_ the discrimination size to balance it, which I think is not possible. Britain was a mishmash of Celtic, Angle, Jute, Saxon, Viking, Scot, Pict etc. They undoubtedly abused each other, but the problem wasn’t solved by ethnicity-based protections, but simply by normalising ethnic diversity and treating everyone the same.

Next time, try to investigate more before publishing... 1st - Mbappe starting this conflict saying that European teams are superior than South American teams to win international trophies, especially talking about the world cup. Argentina won it against France, that's why the fans creating the song to mock Mbappe and people who think like him. 2nd - Messi could have played for Spain, Di Maria for Portugal, Dybala and Icardi for Italy BUT they chose to represent their countries, which is not something that can be said about Belgium, France, Germany, Netherlands and all these countries full of foreigner players. 3rd - South America and Oceania are continents full of people who are black, white, castizo, mestizo, native etc... everybody there is mixed for the last 1000 years easily. The people that you consider white have black or native american blood and the know it, it's not a secret. They are latinos, they have cuktures, flags, histories, traditions etc... You can't tell them to go back to europe because they're not europeans. France football team is full of players who are 500% AFRICANS who preferred to betray their countries to play for France and other european countries. I grew up in France, you didn't, these guys don't care about France or anything, they just want to win competitions with the best team possible among friends speaking french. They have absolutely ZERO pride in them. Embarassing. 4th - The song is maybe offensive but true.
