Amnesty International warned on Monday that this summer’s World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico risks becoming a “stage for repression”, urging FIFA and host nations to protect rights. FIFA said it aims to ensure all participants feel safe, included and free to exercise their rights.
I want to believe but I think you’ll just see mildly lower attendance and all the issues being swept under the rug like the Olympics and the 2022 WC in Qatar.
Yeah I think you’re right. The pessimistic side of me wants to be optimistic.
I’m lately having high anxiety about all the shit happening in the Untied States and I don’t even live there. My mind goes to extreme dramatic places and expects the world cup to be a shitshow. In reality, it will more likely end up being really boring. There might be a few cases of players being “mistakenly” detained by ICE but things will mostly go smoothly
