I literally just said the US sucks.

Stop making up imaginary statements to argue your preformed opinions.

If you think saying Qatar is so much worse than the US is a defense of the US, you need to look into how fucking awful that country is and how many Qataris suffered building those damn stadiums for the world cup.

You love soccer? Great. Give Fifa the same energy youre giving me.

Whats your point?

Is your argument to ignore Qatar's horrible human rights record "oh but what about this county?"

You can literally use that argument on anything. Should we stfu about Putins invasion of ukraine because Vietnam? Grow up dude

It's actually neither. It's me venting at how normalized it has become for westernized countries to support\ignore such horrible regimes such as Qatar.

As I've said in other replies, there's is plenty I could do better, so I certainly don't claim perfection.

Regardless, you make a good point and I appreciate your feedback friend.

It's not my first thought when someone has fun. It's my first thought when I see the world cup.

The problem is many other people see world cup and their first thoughts ARENT slave labor and horrible human rights violations...it's FUN!

>This is Reddit, I don’t need to argue with you lol

But here you are just doing that. You can just stop replying if that's ACTUALLY how you feel

There is almost no device on the market that doesn't have some parts made in Asia.

I'm just correcting that the device is made in Oregon not China. Which by definition it is not.

I run a falcon northwest drx, go ahead and tell me all the parts that are made with slavor labor in China. Please educate me.

Also the belief that owning a car is discretionary is such an urban elitist pov. Many people rely on a car for their living.

Also, i ride a bike...it probably has parts made in China (to my knowledge no parts made with slave labour) either way, I need it to get around...y'all don't need the world cup.

Nice false equivalency. There's a difference between discretionary vs non discretionary consumption.

Watching the world cup is 100% discretionary

Are you assuming everything made in China is made with slave labor, that's incredibly racist and ethnocentric

Also, I'm posting this from a computer made in Oregon.
