right wing orgs have spent years boosting argentina and framing stats to try and make milei look successful, i really don’t get why they’ve changed tack during a world cup
Anti-Latin American Racism and Xenophobia is very much popular in places like Spain and Portugal, as much as Right-Wing Argentinians will pretend and swear they are 100% Europeans, they’ll still get treated like pure shit by Americans and Europeans.
yeah, on reflection can definitely see how the spanish would take any opportunity to shit on argentina to drive/reestablish european supremacy (and portugal would do the same with brazil)
just seems to conflict with the american project of boosting all the right wing south american states, which especially applied to argentina as they wanted to brute force the weird ancap pedo as successful by any means necessary
Now that you mention the speed, it feels kind of similar to the speed and reaction of the far right to things like a knife attack by a brown person. Maybe it’s their circles doing it. They would be particularly tuned in and invested in football culture too
There was lots of hate before the final. Every team they clinched a win over, plus anyone who watched those games. There was accusations of match fixing for Messi/Argentina since some of the first games. They had about 20 fouls per yellow card, meanwhile England and others had about 7 fouls per yellow. They are a team full of shitheads and they constantly get away with it. Enzo Fernandez is a proper arsehole. Even Martinez made a dick of himself last world cup when he posed with the world cup trophy as if it was his dick. Then in the final Parades gets into a fight after the whistle? It’s absolute scumbaggery. No wonder everyone who watched the world cup hates them.
There was no hate about them until the final. Before it was fine. It literally exploded afterwards.
I think the malvinas sign might have sparked a response from either british intelligence or some right wing orgs.

There was hate all over football/soccer forums about them before the final.
Hmm, that’s really strange then. If they really manufactured it this quickly, then it was frighteningly effective, I must say.

I don’t care about football, barely even know the rules, only watched the last 1/3 of the final, and I very much did not like argentina afterwards.
