Best for BritainThe German football team protesting against being silenced by FIFA โ #WorldCup2022
Inge@bestforbritain Very powerful. Well done Germany.
Sgt Arthur Wilson@bestforbritain and it's reported that FIFA are looking at sanctions against them for this, which tells you all you need to know about the money obsessed corrupt organisation that is FIFA. #germany #worldcup #FIFAWorldCup #fifa #FIFA2022

A meaningful protest would have been not to go there in the first place. They're covering their mouths but still opening their wallets.

Canadamunk@jimbreeds @bestforbritain exactly this

dilyn_dog@bestforbritain well Japan silenced them
Bathsheba Blue@bestforbritain thatโs nice but I keep wondering why FIFA made the decision to hold the games there at all since the country was wholly unsuitable.
FIFA is corrupt and the rights of players and fans will keep being ignored until itโs cleaned up.
Steve RS ๐ซถ@inklings @bestforbritain lots and lots and lots of money / โpromisesโ having something to do with geology, fossil fuel, current and past colonialism, and regional and global geopolitics.
I wouldnโt be at all surprised if there werenโt direct payoffs. ๐คทโโ๏ธ

Dayatsea@bestforbritain Unfortunately it's just part of being in Qatar.
Calamity Jane@bestforbritain 6 players wore rainbow boots as well. ๐๐ฝ๐๐พ๐๐๐๐๐
Fernando Roman@bestforbritain que pena que perdieran el partido.
Ahora el gesto queda algo ridรญculo

Inkie@bestforbritain They look like they are about to vomit everywhere.
Daniel@bestforbritain This would be better with duct tape. Just sayin
Rumo@bestforbritain
Interesting to see. In Germany the view is more critical, because they gave in to FIFA demands.

emeles@bestforbritain more balls than Kane and the English team.....well done Germany!
Manuel F. Herrador@bestforbritain #NotImpressed, TBH. These inconsequential gestures are getting old
jmmcd@manuelfherrador @bestforbritain If they made a nazi symbol we would not dismiss that as inconsequential. Speech acts, especially in front of huge audiences, have influence.
@jmmcd @bestforbritain If they made a Nazi symbol, there would (fortunately) be consequences. This leads nowhere, especially after their not wearing the rainbow bracelet.
@manuelfherrador @bestforbritain there would be legal consequences, but that law exists only because we know that speech acts have real consequences anyway.
Derek@manuelfherrador @jmmcd @bestforbritain it has led to people (including yourself) talking about it and thus highlighting the issue. It's a small gesture, but every little helps
@manuelfherrador @bestforbritain true. Nothing happens unless and until the larger national associations force FIFA's hand
ResistUK@bestforbritain ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ #Qatar2022
Thestaroftheworlds@bestforbritain it would have been better had they all passionately kissed each other. Is it gay? No, does it look gay? Yes. Arrestable no. Cute for sure and more attention grabbing
CJ๐ฅ๏ธ๐@bestforbritain Enough of this world conservatism due to old and outdated religious beliefs. Religion is a short cut to thinking. #onelove No more #MAGA people!

Xmariedoubled@bestforbritain I find this kinda stupid. They made their true stance clear, when they decided to participate.. Every country who believe in equality should have boycotted FIFA and the World Cup even tho it meant a ban at the next World Cup
Kajsa Gauza (she/her)@bestforbritain the whole team could wear rainbow bands, though
ลamiir@bestforbritain Respect Qatar ๐ถ๐ฆโค๏ธโค๏ธ
sureJan๐ค๐ดโโ ๏ธ๐ต@bestforbritain yes! More of this, please!! ๐๐ป
Tigprincess@bestforbritain good for them!
George@bestforbritain Well England ?๐คจ๐๐ค
DrCaz ๐ช๐บ๐ฌ๐ง@bestforbritain see, England, it's easy when you try just a little bit.
Well done Germany.
Amelia Joyce@bestforbritain an excellent gesture .. when faced with ridiculous threats .. well done guys ๐
Simon Assaf@[email protected] Lol... Try flying a Palestinian flag or wear a kaffiyeh in Germany... Both are banned. Write an article critical of Israel and you lose your job. Western hypocrisy.
