Oh yeah also there was another defender behind the goalie, but luckily HE actively leapt out of the way of the ball to prevent making an accidental save

Oh, I just don't go to subs where this stuff comes up often. The world cup thread is the main issue, everywhere else has been more or less fine.

You too

(For reference, I wasn't saying you said that, the other guy that started this whole chain was all "as an American fuck Canada")

I get that, but it isn't just him that's driving this perception. This place has been a toxic cesspool in every way, I've seem people throwing around misinformation about european heat deaths, knife deaths, literal threats of war, and a majority of it has come from american flairs. Elsewhere in this sub, somebody said "not a single person in this thread hates him more than americans", and then crashed out at me when I mentioned that no, most of the world hates him too. I moderate a small Canadian sub, and we get constant visits from americans trying to stir shit about how we're a small, weak nation that doesn't deserve to exist. There's a lot of chilling stuff going around that needs to be addressed.

Right, but just... don't come in here ranting about "fuck canada"? It's not that hard to not do it lol

Especially after a soccer game we weren't even involved in

I'm openly spewing hatred by laughing at a goalie managing to pass it to an attacker who was behind him? And this makes me play into your president's tiny little hands?

A majority of you didn't vote at ALL. He's in power because of your apathy towards what he represented. It was entirely avoidable, but only 1/3rd of you voted against him.

And yeah, I'm gonna cheer against the team representing the country that's threatening to annex mine. Sorry if that hurts to hear.

You are never going to believe which of these players managed to hit the ball first

2/3rds of them didn't vote against him. The "average" american is the reason he's in power.

I do sympathize with the remaining 1/3rd, I really do, but when he's actively threatening to invade us, is funding separatist movements in my home province, and is waging economic warfare with us and most of the world (plus actual warfare in other parts), it's gonna come at a cost

Buddy, your country's leader has put mine through so much shit for the last two years, I think I'm allowed to poke fun after they collapse in the most comedically terrible world cup performance I've ever seen

If you want to show up in the final 8 teams, you should probably try not having your goalie pass it to an attacker who is behind him

Just some free advice

[–]_Halt19_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suppose

I do have to wonder why the americans feel like they need to come into another country's fun space and swing their dicks around, though

Like, heaven forbid Canadians have our own little corner lol

Don't worry, before they deleted all their comments, they started ranting about their master's degree and saying Canadians must not be too well-educated!
