Thought I’d start a thread on this subject that’s currently going viral this morning.

Harsh if you ask me

Doesn’t surprise me really - y’all know we’re not allowed to hurt anyone’s feelings; posturing with our pictures of submarines and arrows! Got to keep everyone wrapped in myriad layers of cotton wool so they don’t hurt themselves.

Banned by the organisation that awarded its first ( and hopefully last) peace prize to the man who tried to obliterate one of the participants. And who no doubt will be gracing the World Cup final when he should probably be behind bars.

I wonder if this proscription also applies to the national flags of the competing nations? Not relevant this year of course, but the flags of Mozambique and Kenya would be banned if their fans wanted to wave them in the stadium.

Players with ongoing rape cases against them getting minutes but can’t take a flag in with a submarine on just about sums up this stupid world
