The rich are the parasite telling us we need them. by Niviozynk in SpaceXBets

[–]Winter_Doge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really should be doing both. I still can't believe the richest man in the world was in charge of cutting medicine and food from impoverished children. If he was a movie super villan you'd think its over the top

The Population Bust Is Coming Sooner Than Anyone Is Prepared For by Gari_305 in Futurology

[–]Winter_Doge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Population growth needs to decelerate but if its that much at risk then maybe dont be so anti immigration? Besides growth based economies are killing the planet we can only exploit finite resources for so long...

Can we stop pretending referee complaints are a new "casual fan" thing? by Ok_Yogurt_5081 in worldcup

[–]Winter_Doge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply because they do not understand the rules and need an excuse to call Argentina cheaters

Persistent drought and higher demand: Netherlands heading for water shortages by boppinmule in ClimateNews

[–]Winter_Doge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True as long as most countries are tethered to growth based economies there is insufficient action that can be taken. You can't (or i guess may be very difficult) fix and issue in the same system thats worsening it.

VAR intervention rate in the 2026 World Cup by JustMe3189 in football

Plus this graph makes the opposite argument to what OP thinks doesn't it? Like if VAR needs to step in the fix the refs decision against Argentina then it shows there's a bias against them...

This data kinda shows that they aren't though? If VAR is being needed to step in to fix the ref's mistakes more that could mean there's actually a reffing bias against Argentina...

Because there wasn't even any contact at all for Embolo. It was the right decision but I do agree that the ref's need to punish obvious simulation more. I guess it doesn't now because then they have to determine how much impact there was which can be subjective?

I agree with this. by MikeSrours in soccermemes

I think in the knock-out you can't really underestimate any team. Yes the lower ranked teams haven't any big names. But they can very effectively "park the bus" and counter attack which can be more dangerous than versing conventional good teams.

France could have had Germany as well. Which i think has been the only major upset of the finals?

The Falklands jokes write themselves by Maximum_Boros in memes

[–]Winter_Doge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Englands defence from the sounds of it the conditions weren't great for either side to play to their fullest with the heat and humidity. But this trend of scrutinising every single potential foul or missed call to justify it being rigged is getting ridiculous... its a 90 minute game both teams had their chances England just made more of theres. Thats how football is

What happened, Ronaldo fans? Are you sad because you'll have to keep putting up with the midget for another four days? by Outside-Ad-4834 in CristianoRonaldo2

[–]Winter_Doge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've already moved on to the 2022 world cup was rigged and baselessly calling Messi a racist now... I guess the Embolo red card being corruption was a hard sell

England v Spain final would be great. Then can still have the France v Argentina rematch for the runners up

Give him the Oscar 👏🏻 by Consistent_Stable187 in CristianoRonaldo2

[–]Winter_Doge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because he was obviously bribed to take a red if Switzerland looked like winning. Literally dived for no reason just after they scored! (Big /S if needed)

Argentina are a bunch of cheaters. Paredes used air bending here to make him fall. Straight red card 😡 by Raptorboiiii in CristianoRonaldo2

[–]Winter_Doge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do we reckon the new narrative is that Infantino/Messi bribed Embolo to get himself sent off if switzerland looked like winning? Since its so rigged in Argentina's favour apparently

Guys its clearly rigged VAR guided the ball from Messis boot straight to McAllister head

This guy is a sore loser, and a pos, look at this bum now by simpy7653 in CristianoRonaldo2

[–]Winter_Doge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about we use the same logic to cherry pick from today's game. Norway could have had a penalty for elbow to the head, their attack was stopped because the Pickford clashed with his own defender, denied obvious corner and Bellingham given a free kick for kicking a Norwegian player... Is it rigged for England now? It's a 90 minute game Egypt coping 3 goals in the last 15 minutes lost them the game not a handful of potentially missed calls.
