2022 World Cup Discussion

Those Qatari gays should go and live in Colorado or Florida, where they’ll be perfectly safe.…..

At least 600 (likely many more) LGBT murdered in the USA in the last 20 years including 5 today and 49 in one mass shooting in 2016.

375 transgendered people murdered last year mostly in Central and South America with 33% murdered in Brazil alone.

This is not to defend the Qatari position but if the UK/world media think there’s only this problem in Qatar, as usual they’re very much mistaken.
 
Everything. It’s the rank hypocrisy. Just like the bastards in charge allow water companies to pump thousands of tons of sewage into our river and sea, they also starve their own citizens and force them to use food banks.
The water company bosses are starving people? Or is the sewage discharge a result of lower spending on sewage processing, and hence lower bills and therefore more cash to put food on the table for everyone?

Not sure what the hypocrisy is here - are you saying anyone who is not morally perfect cannot make any moral criticism if anyone? That sounds like a recipe for the total absence of moral judgement.
 
No despotic country is ever going to want to "buy" major tournaments again after this one. Neither will FIFA let this happen again, they're at risk of imploding again.

£280b for the whole world to hate you has been a colossal mistake. Their legacy from this WC will be shite
Sports Washing apparently.
 
Prestige, I guess. There are some decent Middle Eastern teams out there: Iran, Turkey, Israel. Qatar, though? As if. how many Qatari footballers can anyone even name?
The prestige of being the worst World Cup hosts of all time. Not sure that is worth the billions spent.
