    There were a lot more awful responses than those four, including an alarmingly high number that used insults to sexualise a crying child or put her in a sexual context.

    I watched and enjoyed the game with some nice people last night, but on the whole obsessive England fans are fucking scum.

    Yeah I also love to share images from the buttmad-german-nationalist-spheres.

    Don't get me wrong, there's cool football fan communities within germany but whenever the EM or WM starts you just see a rise in dumbfuck nationalism here that actually corellates to minorities being assaulted.

    Yeah, the tweets in this image are fucking shit. So are 80% of the tweets of the german football sphere. They never stopped being super racist about the 7:1 against brazil a few years back.

    Football fans on a national level, by and large, suck major fucking ass because it's not about the footy, it's about the nationalism. This entire country, and again, the football sphere, had an entire shitfit about not putting the rainbow colours on a stadium to own those savages in the east, the hungarians, and then went right back to largely being homophobic shitbags.

    There's no good fandom for a national team.

    Gross. English football fans are the worst; we once lost to Italy and one of my friends who has a naturally swarthy complexion almost got the shit kicked out of him outside a pub because they thought he was Italian - He was actually Welsh but they probably wouldn't have liked that either.

    The top right one is kind of funny, I could see myself laughing about that after a few drinks but what the fuck is wrong with the people who are deriving genuine ecstatic joy from it, and calling a 10 year old slurs???

    This is fucking disgusting. There's some jokes about kids that are funny but these people aren't trying to be funny, just cruel

    So funny watching England being knocked out of the 2010 world cup. Their fans were such assholes in South Africa. Even the American fans (the total 5 people that support the USA football team) and Uruguayan fans, even after the Suarez Ghana hand ball incident, were 100x better.

    I try to avoid heavily generalized statements but sportsball people are some of the worst human beings. Like every time I meat someone that super into some sportsball shit they turn out to be insuferable. Only sport fan I know is a guy that occasionally watches hockey and he isn't rly hardcore about it. Just watches with his roommate cause they picked it up during covid.

    Folks, it's just people manipulating the trajectory of a sphere for a couple hours. I don't get how people can get this worked up over what amounts to the most minor kind of conflict I can imagine
