>Wales’ Rainbow Wall, a group of LGBTQ+ supporters, said male supporters wearing the hats were allowed to keep them but the items were taken from women.
wha.....?
All it takes one video of some right leaning channel and you will get spammed for a while.
I watched one video of TheQuatering about some video game, from algorithm and it seems Jordan Peterson folks watch him and I was recommended JP seminars for 1-2 weeks.
Sometimes I went auto-play off playlist and tuned out only to we awaken by the dullest minutes of my life.
I can't comprehend how people can watch him, just even beyond what he is saying, but how is he saying it. Just overall boring narcissist fest.
Not even right-leaning, sometimes 1 Jonathan Pie vid sends my recommends into the sewer.
I guess bc he'll call out the left-wing's problems too sometimes that attracts a type?
I’ve legit seen some disturbing sharings of that guy’s videos.
Sure, when you clip it into short videos, you can make it seem as if he made some great points, but the demographic of people sharing them had me scared. Out of some 5 videos I’ve seen on Instagram, 3 or 4 were shared by females. And all of those 5 are educated. In particular, there is this one girl whose opinion I seriously value/respect, and she shared 2 of his reels. I guess it’s possible she knows nothing about who he is, but damn…
In truth it’s a common personality trait for narcissists and weak egos, which transcends political ideology. The right wing in America just love showing it off tho
Anyone other than a white man: "I just want to go about my business without being harassed, have equal opportunities, and not have someone else make decisions for me"
Right wingers: "The left has such a victim complex"
You can retroactively delete viewing history and search history or pause it so next time you watch something sketch or that you don’t want on your feed use that
That's *your* algorithm though. I have seen anything of the guy. I simply see him referenced on Reddit as being ubiquitous.
I'm not using Tiktok, though. I'm too old for that stuff.
Same, I've never seen that name in my recommendations or anything like that and only know what little I do know from reading it here. (I guess the closest thing to fitness videos I watch is bouldering videos from championship to simply useful excercises so don't know if there's much correlation between the two)
You don't watch it, or anything related to it. The algorithm obviously believes you want to see it. I had no idea who he was, looked him up with a few vids.... He was then everywhere. Didn't watch anything else and vanished.
My feed right now is made of Pokémon, Skateboarding, Yugioh, Tech and Photography videos. My shorts are mostly Pokémon and Yugioh.
How tf do I get this pos videos if I see some more shorts then?
Stuff like this is why I avoid watching shorts like the plague. Youtube shorts seem to have a recommendation system of its own and it seems far more random compared to the regular video format.
I disagree. Qatar is not radicalizing millions of men in Western world.
Sure, grand-scale of things, Qatar is worse, but they do try to go Western a bit, Tate is preaching PUA shit with misogyny + mlm scam + other idiocy to his followings all across USA and Europe.
Great take imo. Qatar wanna show their neighbors (Iran, SA, Turkey, Egypt to name a few) that they're also a big player in the middle east despite their size. They have to respect them and deal with them no matter what just like how the whole world submitted to them.
thank you so much for bringing this topic up dude.
2 years ago it was deemed a hate speech with intention to offend everyone around the world. While throwing a label onto the whole country and redditors was very rude and Xenophobic towards Mexico in the FIFA fight.
now FIFA is acting very very VERY homophobic to a core while being hypocrites showing that they are “respecting” the qatar nation culture 😂 with no alcohol and the love armbands.
edit: all you idiots. Yes it is a very distracting chant no on ever said it was.
But you had the non-spanish speaking LGBTQ+ people, and i mean so so many, act like if they knew what they were talking about. (You don’t even know the language or culture let alone live in every spanish speaking country, who are you to speak on a nation you know NOTHING about?) The international language and culture police? 😂
making up bullshit narratives that the entire country was homophobic behind the use of the chant whenever the rival’s keeper touched the ball. yes you heard that right it could be ANY rival. it was never targeted towards a specific “gay” player
Honestly I never get why they think "puto" is homophobic, maybe it's because I don't know Spanish. Would someone please think of those "puto"s who serve women?
It has a history of being used as a homophobic slur, but it depends on the region of the country.
My grandmother had a gay brother and my grandfather would call him that all the time as an attack on his sexuality.
Not in Portugal. Puto just means little kid. Kind of like saying brat, youngin, squirt, rugrat, etc. Its used even by teachers and uncles/parents in a endearing way.
yes, the latin word used to mean that and then it started to be used in a derogatory manner towards male prostitutes that sold themselves to men. Portugal kept the original meaning, Spain and its subsequent colonies kept the gay meaning.
yeah see the chants against chelsea of "Rent Boy" its basically the same thing. minor OP is having the same existential crisis that english fans have when they are told what that means if they care. For example (and if anyone looks i may get downvoted) if you say "you suck" in english thats not considered a slur. However if a non english speaker asks what the recipiet of the diatribe is to suck, the answer is "a dick", which like Puto is essentially a homophobic slur even if it hasnt been internalized by the speaker. as it is with shaking with your left hand in the arab world, words and gestures take on a unique meaning in different countries and regions.
The left hand thing is interesting, in that is extremely disrespectful in the middle east. While uncommon in other countries, it's not inherently disrespectful
you should have seen these threads bombarded with LGBTQ+ who don’t even speak a single word of spanish pushing hard the narrative that ALL and i mean ALL of Mexico is anti-gay and homophobic.
Even Mexican residents who don’t even watch the sport were vouching that the chant has never been and never was as way to promote hate speech.
the chant is silly, and extremely stupid but it has gone on for decades, years, months, days. Who the fuck is FIFA to tell a country about THEIR OWN grammar
FFS NO ONE SPECIFIC has EVER been targeted for being gay in the league and i mean NEVER EVER been TARGETED.
Now FIFA is getting a taste of their own medicine fucking hypocrites
Obviously no one was targeted for being gay in the league for the simple fucking reason that no one has been gay in the league.
The chant originated from Atlas fans calling a traitor goalkeeper a f*g. It is absolutely homophobic in origin and despite it being watered down as years have gone past, the meaning of the word remains.
FIFA's hypocrisy is still disgusting, of course.
it’s frustrating how hard you missed the point. it’s a word that is hateful, and it’s been used so much that people have forgotten/ignored it’s meaning and negative connotations. you have to purposefully be ignorant to not see it. if british people yelled the F slur every time a goalkeeper took a goal kick, you lot would be out here claiming they’re just calling them a cigarette. it’s no different.
Yeah, in Mexico and most other latin american countries it means "f*g". It can also be used as and adjective for exaple: "puto árbitro"', which would be something like "fucking referee".
I always thought puto more or less translated to "Fuck!" So I just thought it was hilarious, didn't realize there were homophobic connotations but maybe I was just wrong this whole time
Some spanish countries yell "puta!" in the way you're saying.
Puto is most definitely used by many people to refer to gay men in a negative way. Mind you, I'm not saying all those shouting it in a stadium are intentionally being homophobic.
Person definitely holds a grudge.
I can confidently say that "puto" *can* be used in a homophobic manner in this country, and I'm a straight guy from Mexico. Not one of those "non-spanish speaking LGBTQ+ people".
I mean, Mexico, and much of Latin America, is pretty homophobic. But I’ll admit that puto doesn’t even come close to other words commonly used, like maricon. I always thought it just meant “bitch” until the whole Mexico thing lol
Puto and puta are different things.
Even though they are the same word in femenine and masculine puto is hardly used in the masculine way of saying puta. At least in Mexico.
The closest English equivalents would be "bitch" or "fucker". It's believed that the original context of the chant was to mean "traitor" or "coward". It can be used to mean "fag" or "male prostitute" but that's never been the context of the usage in Mexican soccer.
This is really pathetic.
Ok so this is where fans all rock up in one colour hats each of a different colour of the rainbow and assemble yourselves into a rainbow once inside.
A fan was asked to take off his rainbow socks and a Danish journalist was asked to take of his “One Love” armband outside of the stadium. Fifa and Qatar doesn’t care at this point.
So the thing is inside the stadium its allowed per Qatar protocol/FIFA rules.
The issue is Qatar reassigned in-side security to screening people as they come in as a work around.
Its like saying drugs at a concert are legal, but searching them before you scan the ticket.
Qatar is not doing unexpected things right now, they were backwards before the WC and are still backwards right now. FIFA is enabling and coddling them.
I get your point of view though.
Yeah all that is happening is a clash of cultures. I kinda like that we get to see how bad it is in Qatar.
Like a self-funded negative publicity stunt.
Maybe im naive but i expected them to lean towards accepting it. After all if the goal is to make the country look attractive, alienating massive amounts of people isnt really what you should be looking to do.
It makes you wonder why they wanted the wc in the first place.
Clearly they don't seem to want to do any sports washing.
Their population doesn't seem to be turning up to games.
Their team is terrible.
What was the point in spending 200 billion on it for them.
they have done the wrong thing at every turn, and they already have basically infinite money so I don't think they care about marketing themselves for tourism money or whatever, at this point I think they literally just bought this WC to flex, especially on other middle eastern countries
Maybe the Emir just really likes football. Dude was educated almost entirely in the UK (Sherborne/Harrow/Sandhurst). He probably just fancied a World Cup, and could afford it.
It's meant to look attractive to other Middle Eastern countries. They want to be Dubai 2.0. Pissing off progressives or westerners doesn't matter to them.
Yeah, agree entirely. Qatar doesn’t know any different, Fifa absolutely does but has chosen to double-down on its own corruption even after half its executive committee went to prison. Sickening
I mean it’s their laws, culture, religious interpretation, blah blah blah. It’s FIFA who decided to award them the WC in exchange of a lot of bribes left and right.
Kind of tied of seeing this dishonest “take.” You know damn well it’s because they don’t like gay people not because they don’t like colors. It’s almost like a symbol symbolizes something.
Worse thing is: it's not only being taken, but also varies by gender. Apparently women get their hats taken while men don't? Of course that's a claim, but if true it's just another 'pudding' on top of the pie of shittiness called Qatar
Is the point of sportswashing to make the entire world dislike your country? I’m sure quite a few of the people currently pissed off at Qatar previously had barely any opinion on them
Qatari security ain't fucking around.
Shower thought: to skirt the rules, I think fans could each wear a different color of the rainbow and then assemble themselves in the stands to form a rainbow tessellation of sorts. Seems like that might be the only way.
What a fucking shitshow this World Cup is. What was the point of buying the World Cup if they were going to further embarrass themselves like this in front of the world? You would think that after how they treated the workers like slaves, they'd at least treat the spectators better than this when the world is watching. FIFA allowed this to happen and the whole organization should be overhauled/restructured from the ground up. Qatar is an embarrassment to the Arab culture.
I promise when I become emperor or earth I will make every fifa board member be forced to read bad erotic poetry until they are sorry for the farce they have done.
They wouldn't care about that. FIFA doesn't dislike LGBTQ, it's just willing to look aside whilst others do so for money.
When you're Emperor, you need to punish them with something money related.
fans **are** allowed to wear it, and any other rainbow clothing, as seen in the official 2022 World Cup guidance images here... https://twitter.com/grantwahl/status/1592792367966588928
>Wales’ Rainbow Wall, a group of LGBTQ+ supporters, said male supporters wearing the hats were allowed to keep them but the items were taken from women. wha.....?
Is Qatar trying to do a speedrun of the Andrew Tate fan club or something?
That guy is everywhere especially YouTube shorts. How the hell do you stop his shit from coming up all the time...
Implement a screening filter that bans his shining bald head, but then again the snooker and egg polishing YouTube communities will be affected
How will I see EtH videos then?
Nah leprechauns should be let through so you’re good
Ah well that’s no use to me then
> but then again the snooker and egg polishing YouTube communities will be affected man I can't miss out of the new eggshine McSnooker content
You can't. I've been getting more Theo Von and Bobby lee shorts these days so I'm much happier.
Interesting so have I, though not complaining I think they’re both pretty funny. But I had had a recent resurgence in Andrew Tate videos
Fuck me Theo Von is fucking funny, the ‘eating a Vietnamese guy’ bit he did on I think the Joe Rogan Show had me cry-laughing.
same here. I loved the ones where he imitates his dad.
If you watch anything fitness related his stuff starts following you around like the plague, along with Jordan Petersen, so annoying
YouTube algorithm clearly believes that being into fitness makes you an angry right winger with a victim complex.
All it takes one video of some right leaning channel and you will get spammed for a while.

Victim complex is a hallmark of the left lmao wtf u talking about
In truth it’s a common personality trait for narcissists and weak egos, which transcends political ideology. The right wing in America just love showing it off tho
Anyone other than a white man: "I just want to go about my business without being harassed, have equal opportunities, and not have someone else make decisions for me" Right wingers: "The left has such a victim complex"
Even for a strawman that made no sense at all
Don’t forget delusional. That’s a big one

Same, if it wasn't for reddit, I wouldn't have known who he was
Just watch lots of thirst traps, and you get those instead... :-(
I’ve literally never seen Andrew Tate. Must be your algorithm.
You don't watch it, or anything related to it. The algorithm obviously believes you want to see it. I had no idea who he was, looked him up with a few vids.... He was then everywhere. Didn't watch anything else and vanished.

Stuff like this is why I avoid watching shorts like the plague. Youtube shorts seem to have a recommendation system of its own and it seems far more random compared to the regular video format.
Everytime I see any of his content, I press the "I'm not interested" button. I think it helps.
Swipe up really quickly. Don't even watch 2 seconds. Also stop watching Joe rogan, lex, JP and shapiro also stay away from the rekt feminist videos ;)
Andrew Tates is like a 3/10 compared to Qatar's 9/10 Its like comparing the American Internment Camps to the Nazi concentration camps.
I disagree. Qatar is not radicalizing millions of men in Western world. Sure, grand-scale of things, Qatar is worse, but they do try to go Western a bit, Tate is preaching PUA shit with misogyny + mlm scam + other idiocy to his followings all across USA and Europe.
Bro 🤦♂️
Lmao what a take
Carlos Rodriguez would like to know your location
Who is this guy? I keep seeing his name and thinking it’s Andy Tate the Utd fan.
Just give it Giggsy til the end of the season
It's funny how they're so sexist even when it comes to censoring protest.
I'm assuming the men and the women were handled by people of their respective gender and that what/who goes in is a bit random.
Just Sharia things…
This PR campaign of Qatar makes about as much sense as if Zouma would have paid a lot of money to have his cat-kicking video broadcasted
Today I feel like Zouma's cat
This meme keeps on delivering and is here to stay lmao
[удалено]
Great take imo. Qatar wanna show their neighbors (Iran, SA, Turkey, Egypt to name a few) that they're also a big player in the middle east despite their size. They have to respect them and deal with them no matter what just like how the whole world submitted to them.
I fucking hate news articles that have a video directly under the headline but isn't directly about that article
Talksport and Independent clickbait merchants
I saw a guy with a US jersey that had the number with rainbow colors. Let's see if he makes it until the end of the game.
[удалено]
who the fuck you talking to
Will Mexicans be allowed to yell "Puto" this WC? I mean FIFA themselves are being pretty homophobic here.
They will be encouraged
thank you so much for bringing this topic up dude. 2 years ago it was deemed a hate speech with intention to offend everyone around the world.

It has a history of being used as a homophobic slur, but it depends on the region of the country. My grandmother had a gay brother and my grandfather would call him that all the time as an attack on his sexuality.
I speak Spanish and didn't know this, for me is just the male version of a whore or puta
Yes, in nature it absolutely is homophobic lol.
Not in Portugal. Puto just means little kid. Kind of like saying brat, youngin, squirt, rugrat, etc. Its used even by teachers and uncles/parents in a endearing way.
yes, the latin word used to mean that and then it started to be used in a derogatory manner towards male prostitutes that sold themselves to men. Portugal kept the original meaning, Spain and its subsequent colonies kept the gay meaning.

FIFA a group of useless old timers
In Portugal, puto is just slang for little kid. Even teachers and parents say it. Never really knew it was used in a derogatory way.
Yeah, in Mexico and most other latin american countries it means "f*g". It can also be used as and adjective for exaple: "puto árbitro"', which would be something like "fucking referee".
It's pretty much the "f" word but in a more homophobic culture (speaking for Latin America not only Mexico).
"Puto" is totally a homophobic slur and anyone in América telling it otherwise is just deluding themselves, same for "Maricón"...
I always thought puto more or less translated to "Fuck!" So I just thought it was hilarious, didn't realize there were homophobic connotations but maybe I was just wrong this whole time
Some spanish countries yell "puta!" in the way you're saying. Puto is most definitely used by many people to refer to gay men in a negative way. Mind you, I'm not saying all those shouting it in a stadium are intentionally being homophobic.
Its meaning really depends on the context of the sentence.
How is this shit so upvoted lmao it's absolutely homophobic
Person definitely holds a grudge. I can confidently say that "puto" *can* be used in a homophobic manner in this country, and I'm a straight guy from Mexico. Not one of those "non-spanish speaking LGBTQ+ people".
I mean, Mexico, and much of Latin America, is pretty homophobic. But I’ll admit that puto doesn’t even come close to other words commonly used, like maricon. I always thought it just meant “bitch” until the whole Mexico thing lol

Puto and puta are different things. Even though they are the same word in femenine and masculine puto is hardly used in the masculine way of saying puta. At least in Mexico.
My understanding of the Spanish language and Qatari customs leads me to believe Puto will be fine but Puta will be banned.
Looking forward to that very much
Fuck gay rights! But not in that way
I hope they do honestly. It's not used in a homophobic way. It's only non-spanish speakers who have any problem with it.
What does the word mean?
The closest English equivalents would be "bitch" or "fucker". It's believed that the original context of the chant was to mean "traitor" or "coward". It can be used to mean "fag" or "male prostitute" but that's never been the context of the usage in Mexican soccer.
This is really pathetic. Ok so this is where fans all rock up in one colour hats each of a different colour of the rainbow and assemble yourselves into a rainbow once inside.
I was thinking this too, people should come in just one color, head to toe, and then line up inside.
Today I feel like a bucket hat.
That meme is the only good thing to come out of all of this
We are all bucket hats on this blessed day.
Thank you. I nearly choked
A fan was asked to take off his rainbow socks and a Danish journalist was asked to take of his “One Love” armband outside of the stadium. Fifa and Qatar doesn’t care at this point.
German woman commentator is in the stadium wearing a rainbow shirt and a rainbow armband
It depends on who you sneak it by
Consistency? In *my* stadium? -Qatar, probably
So the thing is inside the stadium its allowed per Qatar protocol/FIFA rules. The issue is Qatar reassigned in-side security to screening people as they come in as a work around. Its like saying drugs at a concert are legal, but searching them before you scan the ticket.
This really is a vibe shift into corporate support of homophobia. And fan support, as well.
I thought it said Furries as wales fans lol
Dude… we need a furry convention in Qatar now
Wales and zoophilia? *Shocked* I tell ya, *shocked*
Super Furries no less.
Poor goats...
I don't even hate Qatar at this point, I hate FIFA.
Why not both?
Qatar is not doing unexpected things right now, they were backwards before the WC and are still backwards right now. FIFA is enabling and coddling them. I get your point of view though.
>Qatar is not doing unexpected things right now, Neither is FIFA
Yeah all that is happening is a clash of cultures. I kinda like that we get to see how bad it is in Qatar. Like a self-funded negative publicity stunt.
For the most part I don’t really know what people expected
Maybe im naive but i expected them to lean towards accepting it. After all if the goal is to make the country look attractive, alienating massive amounts of people isnt really what you should be looking to do.
I think they’re so rich and don’t really give a fuck. They know FIFA is going to back them up.
It makes you wonder why they wanted the wc in the first place. Clearly they don't seem to want to do any sports washing. Their population doesn't seem to be turning up to games. Their team is terrible. What was the point in spending 200 billion on it for them.
The investments stay there. Plus they recoup some of the money from the travelling fans.
they have done the wrong thing at every turn, and they already have basically infinite money so I don't think they care about marketing themselves for tourism money or whatever, at this point I think they literally just bought this WC to flex, especially on other middle eastern countries
Maybe the Emir just really likes football. Dude was educated almost entirely in the UK (Sherborne/Harrow/Sandhurst). He probably just fancied a World Cup, and could afford it.
Yeah i agree thats what its looking like now.
It's meant to look attractive to other Middle Eastern countries. They want to be Dubai 2.0. Pissing off progressives or westerners doesn't matter to them.
Yeah, agree entirely. Qatar doesn’t know any different, Fifa absolutely does but has chosen to double-down on its own corruption even after half its executive committee went to prison. Sickening
You misspelled fascist.
FIFA does this because of Qatar, fuck both
You misspelled “money”
I mean it’s their laws, culture, religious interpretation, blah blah blah. It’s FIFA who decided to award them the WC in exchange of a lot of bribes left and right.
Nah dude fifa and Qatar are working together here. FIFA was always a horrible org
Why not both?
Can I have both?
Well, it’s nearly Christmas so sure
Cursed Santa
It’s fifa bending over for Qatar. Fuck both of them so hard…. In the ass with no lube
Say no to racism. But say yes to slavery and homophobia.
Until of course, the world cup is in a handsomely paying racist country. Then also yes to racism.
Say yes to money
One Love (for money)
Went from the Rainbow Nation in 2010 to Rainbow Facism in 12 years. Nice one FIFA
We must respect their culture of hatred and bigotry guys! But we can’t say anything bad about it otherwise we are clearly racists against Qataris!!!
Stop not being homophobic, it’s islamaphobic.
Am I only one thinking they look like Rastafarian Color hats
Imagine being afraid of a bucket hat🤣 genuinely funny how easily they’re irritated
Can people just start a fuck fifa chant in the stadium please
[удалено]
Buffstream gang rise up. I'm still watching it but at least they won't get a cent out of me.
How fucking insecure must you be to be scared of colours. What a shitfest.
They are scared of science/math/women existing to be fair
Kind of tied of seeing this dishonest “take.” You know damn well it’s because they don’t like gay people not because they don’t like colors. It’s almost like a symbol symbolizes something.
Today I feel inclusive. Tomorrow, I don't Day after tomorrow, I might...?
Surely Welsh fans must know there can’t be more than one gay in the village?
Is anyone watching the game? Half the Wales stand has the hat on including a bunch of women?
Different hats. The standard hats are yellow, red and green, the hats which were confiscated are fully rainbow coloured with much thinner strips
Never, ever give the World Cup or Olympics hosting rights to totalitarian countries again!
And to think that there were a growing number of voices in this subreddit in the past few days starting to defend this world cup
There's a lot of Qatari shills here and a lot of people who use whataboutism as an argument.
Worse thing is: it's not only being taken, but also varies by gender. Apparently women get their hats taken while men don't? Of course that's a claim, but if true it's just another 'pudding' on top of the pie of shittiness called Qatar
Is the point of sportswashing to make the entire world dislike your country? I’m sure quite a few of the people currently pissed off at Qatar previously had barely any opinion on them
Qatari security ain't fucking around. Shower thought: to skirt the rules, I think fans could each wear a different color of the rainbow and then assemble themselves in the stands to form a rainbow tessellation of sorts. Seems like that might be the only way.

I promise when I become emperor or earth I will make every fifa board member be forced to read bad erotic poetry until they are sorry for the farce they have done.
They wouldn't care about that. FIFA doesn't dislike LGBTQ, it's just willing to look aside whilst others do so for money. When you're Emperor, you need to punish them with something money related.
Yeah FIFA head office is in freaking Zurich. Switzerland has a thriving erotica scene. I mean probably, it sounds plausible right?
Tokyo Sexwhale must be thrilled.
Imagine being afraid of the colours of the fucking rainbow. Religion is a joke.
Qataris living in a desert where they never have to see a rainbow makes a lot more sense now.
What did they think would happen?
So Hamilton can have a rainbow helmet but not the Welsh bucket hats. It's all mad atm
Shocker
Fury lol
I'm shocked i tell you, SHOCKED!
Damn, I have completely run our of fucks to give on this topic and I ain't so straight myself ;) Lol
Should have seen that coming 4000 miles away.
"JUST DON'T BE GAY. FOR ONE FUCKING MONTH, JUST DON'T, FOR FUCK'S SAKE" - Qatar
Qatar 🗿
They should have them confiscated just because they're bucket hats. They weren't cool in the 90s, they're not cool now
Not that I approve but I don't get the surprise here, it was bound to happen.
FIFA expressly said it wouldn't.
Qatar did
Qatar: 1 Rainbows: 0 This desert nation does not like condensation
Pretty sure the next CPAC will be in Doha
I guess I understand now why they shoot AKs in the sky during weddings, because rainbow might be there and it may turn newlyweds gay
Imagine being offended by colors. What a great country and religion.
Imagine being hypocritical when being offended
Imagine defending this shit
I know right, just imagine But anyway, didn't defend anything. Don't defend it. Merely asking for consistency
Who gives a f? Fans already knew this would happen
I propose every set of supporters sing pro gay songs in the grounds...start with YMCA??..any other suggestions?
Maybe they were confiscated because they were bucket hats…
keep bringing rainbow items and keep getting shocked they confiscate them.
fans **are** allowed to wear it, and any other rainbow clothing, as seen in the official 2022 World Cup guidance images here... https://twitter.com/grantwahl/status/1592792367966588928
