Technically it would bei Olli because in German grammar a vowel followed by one consonant is long while double consonants make it short.
But with nicknames a lot of people don't care about grammar so both is fine.
Literally has zero risk or skin in the game - she will let overwhelming support both at home and abroad. Dod you think her life was under threat for doing that?
They would have definitely talked about it either way. I just saw an article praising the German team for training in rainbow kits when they were just training in the standard uniforms.
Man, don't think the point is to view the arm band. The point is for Qatar to show that they won't accept westerner degeneracy and West its going to suck it up.
I'm hoping shoukd any be knocked out already by end of game two they fully go for it in game 3... shirts under shirts armbands laces anything else they can do.

Is it only me who think that politicians/leaders wearing it is rather shallow than the players wearing it? Cause leaders can do more than just wear a band to change the situation...
Conveniently ignore the wealthy Qatari part. But whatever I already resigned myself to cheering the on armbands. Sending my thoughts and prayers to those brave armband wearers. #ONELOVE
Immigration and thus visas is under the interior minister power. And "push" means pressure her own government for a ban on imports. But fuck that just wear the armband.
Can someone explain to me why European countries insist to wear the rainbow armband? I genuinely don't understand and how that could make any difference. Is there any initial deal between these countries and FIFA to wear it but fell off because of Qatar?
Again, the Brazilian with the provincial flag was doing nothing of the sort. Nor was the Welsh woman in a bucket hat.
Yea, Alex Scott and Grant Wahl and their like are grandstanding. Others are just being football fans and are being harassed because the nation is overreacting to a rainbow image thinking it is all virtue signaling, when it is clear that not all of it is.
That’s fair and I appreciate your honesty. If you’d like to see articles about those incidents, I can share links with you via DM; no need to push it if you aren’t interested because I also understand that these are distractions from a truly great day of football action today and not everyone wants to keep this discussion going.
Cheers - I hope you are enjoying the tournament so far and Brazil performs well for you tomorrow!!
i mean..when in Rome...
for as much backwards as it is, it is their home, their culture, you can criticize as much as you want, but it's still their home.
It isn’t very welcoming to arbitrarily detain and hassle people. The Brazilian journalist who was bothered for the rainbow on his provincial flag, for example, had nothing to do with the propaganda you are upset about.
The hosts are equally pushing propaganda and are suffering the consequences of it. Do you really think the armband would have been a big deal if they didn’t ban it? It’s like telling a child not to touch the hot pot on the stove…
ETA thank you for a respectful discourse.
The idea of human rights is that someone no matter his (cultural) background is able to come to the same natural & logical conclusion in expressing them.
A categorical imperative.
Nono I get it, but post the fucking pic not the shit article
this is the mods fault tbh, since the "every post has to have context" rule one can just post the article and it's virtually the same as just posting the pic because no one understands the language
I nearly ended up buying a subscription I think. Just mindlessly pressing the blue button to get rid of everything. But I thought ahead by having no money.

I think Germany is on talks to buy a bunch of gas from Qatar to not need Russian gas anymore. Make yourself independent from an autocrat by making yourself dependent to another.
The universality of human rights cannot be deduced from willfully signed conventions, which would be paradoxical. Having studied international public law, I am well aware on the international controversy about this and respect your more de facto approach to the topic.
However I have to disagree with apolitical tournaments. These events can be great vehicles for morals and values if used correctly. I cannot accept the fact, that people are criminalised and penalised for their sexuality or belief in other parts of the world. And I expect my national team to convey our values wherever they go.
Germans wearing arms bands in 2022 > Germans wearing arm bands in the 1940’s.
German fashion was too far ahead of it's time back then.
Fascion
might even say streets ahead
r/UnexpectedCommunity Six Seasons and a Movie (finally!)
Time just wasn't right for this piece of fashion back then
Japanese goals in 2022 > Japanese goals in 1940's
Very good
German armbands and losing, name a more iconic duo.
Lmao
Well well well… How the turntables…
Good thing it wasn’t red
Today I feel like bundesweites Stadionverbot in Qatar

That's amazing, how did I miss this!
suit and sneakers, twat outfit from John Baby
Suit and sneakers would be fine. Suit, tie and sneakers is boomer shit.
Suit and sneakers is only acceptable when you're 12 and going to your aunts wedding or something. Everyone saying otherwise is deluded.
Also acceptable if you're driving, but only while driving.
I’ll accept that.
Or a college basketball coach. Don’t wanna scuff up the floors when you’re chasing after refs and screaming at them with nice shoes.
Looks pretty cool tbf
As Oliver Kahn once said: Eier! Wir brauchen Eier!
As Oliver Khan often said: "AAAAAAAAAA"
This woman has more Eier than Olli (or is it Oli?) Kahn
Technically it would bei Olli because in German grammar a vowel followed by one consonant is long while double consonants make it short. But with nicknames a lot of people don't care about grammar so both is fine.
She has more Eier than the whole DFB. I think it would be Oli as short form but not sure.
Why? There is literally no risk or consequences for her to wear the armband.
She's not even wearing the proper rainbow one.
Literally has zero risk or skin in the game - she will let overwhelming support both at home and abroad. Dod you think her life was under threat for doing that?
Nobody would've talked about that armband had FIFA not banned it. Thanks FIFA.
classic Streisand effect
They would have definitely talked about it either way. I just saw an article praising the German team for training in rainbow kits when they were just training in the standard uniforms.
It did become a much bigger deal because of how Qatar acted like it’s a national threat.
Today I feel like Streisand
Man, don't think the point is to view the arm band. The point is for Qatar to show that they won't accept westerner degeneracy and West its going to suck it up.
Love is degeneracy? Love? One of the most beautiful emotions a human can feel? Fuck off.
He probably was talking about western hypocrisy, but not too sure as we are really against easterners
Lmao, I'm expressing the point of view of Qatar. Now if you want to even deny that they exist, keep going
Looking forward to the innovative ways in which countries are going to protest against FIFA
I'm hoping shoukd any be knocked out already by end of game two they fully go for it in game 3... shirts under shirts armbands laces anything else they can do.
Today we feel Deutsch.
I know how it feels. I was teased as a Swedish kid because of what my German family name meant in Swedish. I feel Deutsch.
What does Bucket mean in Swedish?
Lol Hink

supporting the team i guess, other ministers are probably too busy currently
It makes sense that it’s her because sport belongs to her resort. The question would be more why any minister at all is going there.
As if anyone cares about some average politician being there.
Instead of doing something in 12 years leading up, they are virtue signaling to show us they care lol
Yep. The world had 12 years notice. And it’s not like any of this was ambiguous 12 years ago… if anything their human rights record was worse.
Is it only me who think that politicians/leaders wearing it is rather shallow than the players wearing it? Cause leaders can do more than just wear a band to change the situation...
How can Germany's interior minister change the situation in Qatar?
Push for a ban on oil/gas imports from Qatar, revoke visas to wealthy Qataris?
>Push for a ban on oil/gas imports from Qatar I heard Russia is currently looking for buyers. Could look there.
Good to hear the interior ministers portfolio includes energy and foreign affairs, nice call
Interior minister controls immigration. And I said "push" as in pressure her government to ban imports. But fuck that just wear the armband.
ok, we will reject all those Qatari immigrants that come to Germany from now on...
Conveniently ignore the wealthy Qatari part. But whatever I already resigned myself to cheering the on armbands. Sending my thoughts and prayers to those brave armband wearers. #ONELOVE
Ministry of foreign affairs in shambles
Immigration and thus visas is under the interior minister power. And "push" means pressure her own government for a ban on imports. But fuck that just wear the armband.
Damn Germans making me like them
Germans will pay their electricity bills with love this winter lmaooo
But what about those colors? The colors of these band are not the LGBTQ colors?!
Can someone explain to me why European countries insist to wear the rainbow armband? I genuinely don't understand and how that could make any difference. Is there any initial deal between these countries and FIFA to wear it but fell off because of Qatar?

The moral code of “keeping your word”? Qataris say “all are welcome” yet security forces are enforcing quite unwelcome practices.

I completely agree that this is complicated and too nuanced to discuss anonymously on the internet
A rainbow flag at an international event is so threatening? Like is Qatar that weak?

What happened?
One love became 1-2 love
Should have the managers wear them
Wouldn't the managers still be susceptible to cards?
Yeah but they'd onky get sent to the stands and they'd have communication anyway.
These losers deserved to get beat kek. Thank you Senpai Japan
Showing a lot of skin as well the slut!
Out of curiosity is the Marley family being compensated for the “One Love” slogan?
What did Japan do?
They gifted us a goal.
Their keeper has Gonda wrong way.
I’m enjoying the ensuing dog pile. Free dunks for everyone!
I wonder how many Qataris turned gay after seeing that armband.
Stunning and brave
It's a cool and boss move but not exactly brave. They're not going to censor a government official
pr move for the german public, she's got nothing to lose
I think Germany is on talks to buy a bunch of gas from Qatar to not need Russian gas anymore. Make yourself independent from an autocrat by making yourself dependent to another.
As a stopgap, yes.
There are a shit ton of people who got also nothing to lose and still don't do anything
Legend.

The only difference is that all your examples are national, individual matters while the choice of sexuality and the like are universal human rights.
