Now it would be massive if a significant amount of folks stopped going to games such that seats were noticably empty.
Like football in Saudi Arabia. Nobody goes to those games. The stands are always pretty much empty.
I rather not "vote with my wallet" and have a government that is able to do something. Furthermore, for a lot of people football is not just a game, but one of the few ways colonized people can prove themselves against colonizers, you cannot ask people from the Global South not to go because whatever, I want to see Ewwropeans moan and cry in the field. A much better thing would be going to the match and support Palestine so that it is visible, as many clubs have done in a lot of countries.
yeah so likely fifa is not going to change then.
Wonder what kickbacks they got for funding it
.... and yet again America just looks over their shoulder, shrugs, calls it another day and keeps scrolling on Tik Tok or whatever social media feed they were looking at.
