Oh man I tuned in right in the middle of that video about what peaces he all brokered. It was all I could do not to lose my dinner. Even if it were all factually correct, the amount of sheer dick sucking propaganda just screams "We are a corrupt bunch of fucks and you can't do shit". I imagine Hitler had a very similar ceremony at the Berlin Olympics.

Did he bring up the epic war between Aberbaijan and Albania again? Or the war between Albania and Thigh Land?

[–] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

He didn't bring up anything, they made some sort of promotional video with a voice over stating all the peace he created. It was basically an I Love You video by Infantino to Trump. It was so fucking obvious too.

He really does have tiny hands.

Is this even a real picture?

Looks like it was lifted straight from the video. Dude couldn't even wait to have it out on him.

Just because it's meaningless doesn't mean it's fake. It doesn't have any credibility, weight or wider acceptance, but it's real. It's much like Michael Scott's world's best boss mug. Absolutely real, but shallow and meaningless

A person with a sense of shame might find this actually kind of insulting

He almost looks like he's jangling keys for his followers

He's increasingly looking like an archetypal old man. That mouth thing he's doing is real retirement home shit

Yet people will still watch and give world cup money. Same shit with UFC.

My Scottish dad was keen to watch the draw. He's a socialist, a trade union man and his Facebook posts are either reruns of the qualifying goals or jokes shitting on Trump. His intense dislike of that man has become a borderline obsession.

Needless to say, he did not enjoy the show, least of all because Scotland drew against Brazil.
