I just dont understand how people cant see that making outward political expressions a MANDATORY aspect for inclusion on a National team is frickED UP



There is a TON of fricked up shite this country does; but putting Pride numbers on the national team jerseys to signal to a marginalized portion of our population that they are valued by their National Team is definitely not one of them. As a straight white male, recognizing Pride month had legitimately zero impact on how I watched the game or enjoyed the win. And I refuse to believe that it had any impact on fans choosing to buy or not buy tickets months back when this game was announced.

Yep.

I don't give a shite whether they support pride month or not, I just can't even fathom caring about something that doesn't affect me one way or another.

It's just hilarious that there are people who are trying so hard to use that as the reasoning as to why Americans didn't show up last night, when that is so clearly not the case. But they won't let facts get in the way of their crusade. Because they are so insecure and bothered by it, then in their minds, it must be the reason why no one showed up.

I don’t care about this stuff either, and I don’t think I’d even notice that they were wearing special jerseys, but the LGBT population is closer to the most coddled group of people that it is to being marginalized these days.
