That's a bunch of unproven conspiracy theorism but for the sake of argument, let's say it's all true. What does the Argentinian people have to do with the decision of a few folks in power?

But that's exactly the ignorance, the folks that made that song didn't think of the white players as French immigrants. If yall think this song is bad, you don't want to hear the original version, which Nueva Chicago made for Duck Sud (two lower tier Argentinian teams) XD

It's ignorant because here it is used as an anti-colonialism chant, while omitting how racist it is. It also lacks self-awareness, since every single person in Argentina has immigrant ancestry. But then again, nobody here thinks twice about the lyrics nor take it as serious as in other parts of...

But that's the thing, sometimes you don't realize what you are saying, or you think it's OK in a specific context. I'm sure 99% of 90's rappers didn't actually thought about gay people when using the F word. Another example: one of my best friends is gay, and when we go to matches, he sings...

To me there's a huge difference between ignorantly having discriminatory actions (which absolutely all of us have had at some point of our lives) vs being a true bigot. Nowadays, the true bigots are probably the most PC of all. They will never say anything out of place in public but in their...

I'm not defending the chant at all, it's ignorant, racist and transphobic. I'm just giving context and trying to explain why a person singing said song doesn't automatically make him a racist or transphobe. 90% of Argentinian football chants have some kind of...

What's Argentina's role, that it supossedly harbored Nazis? Ok, how's that any more significant than having a zoo of black people in 1994? It is very funny to me how you and that Freshie (or whatever his username is) guy are trying to act all high and mighty while being the most xenophobic...

I'm still waiting for that Argentinian "history of racism". Just as a heads up, this isn't Argentina: https://www.vice.com/en/article/xgda34/human-zoo-france-safari-africain

And what's this history of racism Argentina has, that makes it any more special than any other history of racism in any other country?

The irony of this guy acting self-righteous on this thread XD

I'm not saying it wasn't racist, I was just explaining what the intention of the song was, understanding, more than anyone here, the idiosyncrasy of Argentinian football chants. Also, being bilingual, realizing what is lost in translation and sounds worse than it actually was intended in...

I'm 100% with you, but it is like you said: everybody has commited or said discriminatory actions/remarks at some point, everybody. And anyone saying they haven't, it's just lying to themselves. The thing is that commiting, saying these things doesn't automatically make you a racist/bigot. I've...

Ok, but that has nothing to do with what I was arguing haha.

I don't know why you think that comment was meant for you when I quoted someone else haha.

Yes, I missed your last part. Still, it is not the same. The difference is that you can sing about murder without being a murderer, just like you may use a racist or homophobic remark without being racist nor homophobic in your core. If I can concede something, is that Argentina is clearly...

Great examlple. Do you really think all those Mexicans singing that are homophobic? If I were to bet, I'm sure more than a couple of gay Mexicans sing it XD

What's the principle for you to be so clearly biased towards Argentina and generalize about the totality of us?

You can't compare singing about murdering people to actually comitting murder, can you?
