Soccer is a plague, as is most sport, which encourages tribalistic behaviors detrimental to our evolution as a species.

I’d even go a step further. In my (soon to be massively downvoted) opinion, sports are dumb enough as it is; professional sports are outright Fascist.

“We won!” — Nope, the team whose colours you idiotically painted on your face won.

“Our team won!” — Nope, the team owned by that millionaire won; it’s not your team.

“Our country won!” — Nope, a bunch of internationally sourced overprivileged morons who are good at kicking balls won.

Et cetera.
