Today the newspaper The Economist published a bizarre article bemoaning the lack of diversity in the Italian football team, with some asking if the same complaint would be made about Nigeria or Ghana. Or the NBA for example.It's funny because I've never seen The Economist publish any article defending the improvement of workers' wages or raising taxes on the rich. It speaks volumes about what are the liberals' priorities these days...
I mean, why is it a problem if a European team is all white or if a certain community is comprised of white people?To me it's clear that the driving motive of pro-diversity people is their hatred of white people. They see white people as less than human.
UK should suck some BBC. Nobady want diversity in the way is in France, UK, Germany etc. Today when you talk about a france citazian you think 50% he can be white 50% he can be black, this mean France start to lose theyr national identity as France people been nativly white. I'm very happy for Italy that they had >Baloteli< a black player in theyr team whitch show they are not racist, even when this guy whas a problem player. Is important that all people have the same oportunity to chance to succed in what they want to do. But forcing the comunity to accept more diversity by inviteing black pleople, muslims, or other nation who are not from ther, that a mess. As a romanian i have over 2 milions citazians in Italy, not all of them talk italian, some of them not even English. Is a shame for my country to have so many people in a diferent country because our povertys and is a shame for Italy to have a majority population made it from imigrants. In London i barely finde real English people, who say "My mother is from here, even my father and i whas born here and i'm white". The diversity should be allow by traveling, visiting and is the person prove and deserv he is a good worker and a good citazian by knowing the language and the traditions and respect them and NOT imposing his culture THEN COME AND BECOME A CITAZIAN OF THAT COUNTRY, WHAT EVER COUNTRY IT IS. FORTA ITALIA, KEEP BEEN WHITE!!!
If the black comunity don't like this text then change olso Africa and Soud America and Soud Asia in more white.

LOL. I was actually thinking about the recent events in football, when I saw this question. Yeah, it's getting ridiculous. I watched the USA-Haiti and Canada-Martinique matches too, and the Canadian and USA teams were so black, if I didn't know what match it was, I would think two Caribbean teams are playing eachother. It's a very skewed representation of the country's demographics. That's why, why should half the Italian squad be black, if black people are a miniscule minority there? Why can't they just pick players for their abilities, rather then skin colors? I'd rather have one black player who is good, than five black players who suck. Southgate wanted to be praised for his diversity instead of skill, and it cost him.
But it upsets me that only White countries have to be diverse. Why no one ever complain about the lack of diversity in Latin American and East Asian teams?
Like I said before, how can half of a team's roster be black, if there are hardly any black people in the country?
This whole thing is ruining football!
But why is it only football? Why no one's complaining about the all White volleyball and hockey teams?

There are White French people on Guadeloupe and Martinique. Why isn't there a single White player on those sqauds?
Yeah, pretty much. They're trying to force black people into EVERYTHING now. We have the right to have some stuff for ourselves like other races. For example, black people don't like hiking and national parks, so why are they trying to force them there?
It's funny because they never force Asian people onto diversity quotas, let alone when it comes to sports. Also, Latinos got their "POC-card" revoked by the woke it seems.
@UncleJessieRabbit There's N worders in Latin America. Are you kidding me? In Guerrero and on the Pacific Coast. Colombia has the highest percentage of N worders in South America. in Brazil there are plenty. There are lots of Chinese too. Germans, Italians, Polacks. Latin America is diverse.
I'm sorry but that was the most striking aspect of the match for them? Love how no one mentioned about how the English fans brutally attacked Italian fans right after the match, hurling racial abuses. They also booed the Italian national anthem before the match.. Isn't this something serious that should be addressed?
Also, I'm sure that Italy's coach chose the best players to play for the Italian national team and represent the country (I don't know exactly how the selection process exactly is). It just happens that most of the players were white. by the way there are two players of Brazilian ancestry in the team. I fail to see where they saw racism
Stop making everything a left-right issue. The Economist is centrist leaning right.
But yes, I do think that article is stupid. Sports teams often just try to make up the best combination of talent they can, from around the globe. Do I agree with that? No, I think they should pull from their own countries. But it's not up to me.
The entire planet is diverse. Many in the western nations find it racist if one small country... one tiny section of the planet has an ethnic unity relative to that part of the world. They exist the diversity of the planet to be represented in every country... well western country.
They don't bemoan Africa for being full of Africans... they don't bemoan China and Japan for being full of Chinese and Japanese looking folk. They don't bemoan India for being full of people that look like they are from India... etc., etc.
Western countries expect there to be an equal representation of every ethnicity on the planet... Asian, African, Indian, middle east, every kind of temple, mosque, religion, belief system, every culture on the planet.
Italy. Mediterranean... olive skinned folk. That is probably how most Italians look because that is the part of the world they have lived in for 1000's of years. I wouldn't expect an Italian group of 15 or so people to have an Asian guy, a Caucasian guy, a black guy, an Arab guy, an Indian guy, an South American looking guy if it is made up of Italians. But that is how the west acts now. Unless the diversity of the entire planet...7 continents, multiple climates, every ethnicity, all 195 countries, every religion is equally displayed in every individual western nation they bemoan as if something wrong is happening.
It is a bit of a sickness... those that are obsessed with it.

More to the point--and this is the REALLY important point. . .
They. Fucking. WON!!!
So I'm not seeing how there's any problem with what they're doing. We seem to have lost track of a very important thing: diversity is the flip side of something much, MUCH more important:
Singularity of PURPOSE. That is, if you're trying to win fucking games you need to focus on getting the people that will help you WIN FUCKING GAMES!!! Everything else--EVERYTHING else--needs to fall by the wayside to that. Early on sports teams that decided "hey, let's only let white people play" weren't displaying a singularity of purpose (WINNING). So they naturally got their asses handed to them by the teams that could find the best players and would let Jackie Robinson play because he was BETTER than everyone else.
Well, the Italian team was BETTER than everyone else this year. Their formula worked. The tards who want to make sure we're keeping the right token players on board because "diversity" have lost the plot. It's not about diversity for diversity's sake. It's about singularity of purpose. WINNING. And not letting ANYTHING stupid (like skin color) get in the way of that SINGULAR goal.

Diversity is this lefts "final solution" in getting rid of the white population that they hate and despise so much. They'll deny this of course but one can clearly see diversity for what it really is and what it is designed to do if you're paying attention to the double standard. Majority Asian and black and brown countries are perfectly okay with the multiculturalist because they see these countries as already being diverse, since their population is not white and no white people live in these countries. Therfore, there is no need to force diversity upon them. That's why no one is saying that Asian countries are too Asian, or black countries are too black and need for tens of millions of blacks and Asian people living in their countries to make it more diverse. This agenda is only designed for white people and where they live as a majority. The diversity agenda will not end until white people find themselves completely outnumbered and controlled by POC where ever they live who almost always vote against the white population on every issue.
It's all part of the grand plan. The "great" plan to "reset" everything, if you will. I know, I know... You'll think of me as a conspiracy theorist, despite the overwhelming evidence in front of your eyes. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him have a higher IQ in order to see what's RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS F*CKING EYES. Anyway, yeah. This is all part of the plan to make everyone - particularly, white males, but everyone else is next - hate themselves and lose the will to keep fighting against this woke/negative garbage in what has been dubbed "the culture war." The war against masculinity, white people, intelligent minorities, police officers, conservatives, heterosexuals, non-transgenders, and so on. The sad part is, it's working.
The part I fear is that it will be perfect and never cease to be working. I know that people say nothing lasts forever, but this is a thing that has been going on in the making for decades if not more than a century. And I was born just in time to see it evolve into a head. I admit it, I'm bitter because I will not get to live in a kind of society that I would like.
Yeah, but the reason for this is simple. The people who push this stuff hate white people and want rid of us. Diversity always means less white people.
The word racist wasn’t only created to describe those who hate people of other races, but also to silence and objection any white people might have towards things which will lead to their eventual wiping out. If you object to white people being completely replaced by people of other races you’re a racist.
Dorset being 98% white has nothing at all to do with racism. People of colour just don’t live there. It’s only racist if you think that absolutely nowhere should be majority white, even if this is the result of the free choice of the people. They want to force diversity, main reason being to get rid of white people.
Nobody would ever complain that an African team or place was too black, or that an Asian team or place was too Asian.
It's worse than a cult, it's a mind virus. Most people have been programmed to just respond with preprogramed phrases and words when they hear anything about diversity, BLM, or antiracism. People that actually pay attention and see what's happening are appalled at it. Basically what happened is that nobody listened when chans were talking about how social media would ruin humanity because people can't even figure out how to navigate reputable sources online, now we have ragebased content ruining people's brains. I genuinely believe most people should no longer have access to the internet, let alone social media.
About the economist article it is a last step trasmutation of Economist from economic magazine to ideological magazine. Moreover it is the scream of losers. Economist is an English company. England loses to Italy. Economist prints story conflating Italy with racial animus and right-wing nationalism. Anyone reading this seriously is either ignorant, an ideologue, or both. The article is completely insane and shows that the author is unable to understand anything of Italian politics and society. Like all marxist views, they tend to want to politicize everything and see everything through the lens of politics. By doing so, they can step onto the pedestal for moral lessons and feel better. They do it only because they are rotten inside, but they hide it well, like Dorian Gray with this portrait.
It reminds me of that time a game called Kingdom Come: Deliverance got criticized for not having enough black people. The game is set in medieval Bohemia.
Also, I'm originally from Croatia, it's white as fuck. I wonder why the soccer team of this Slavic European country is all white. It's almost as if countries that didn't participate in imperialistic conquest or the slave trade and aren't exactly economically enticing don't have a lot of minorities, especially when they spent decades of the previous century ethnically cleansing and committing genocides against other people before fleeing from a war that affected most of the country.
I wonder if it would be considered equally offensive if an African nation didn't have any white or Asian representatives. They don't care about equality, they're just racial fetishists.
I can't pretend to well versed on the population makeup of Italy or there nationalistic history with race.
We are in the year 2021 but more than capable players being omitted from field of play was most certainly a thing in the United States for quite some time. Again I don't know that tonbe a European or specifically an Italian problem but I look forward to reading up on it.
Also I don't follow soccer/futbol at all but I did get wind and subsequently read some of the post directed at some of the players in England. Based on what I read I would certainly say that England has some underlined issues with race and the game.
Why is 98 percent of Dorset white? Because last I checked, the uk majority is white and I want to kno why I'm still paying for a TV licence to the British broadcasting paedophiles for its biased Shyte...
The Economist is a left-leaning publication that is usually ok when presenting "factual" information. These editorial opinions, or writer's opinions, seem a bit bizarre EVEN for them. I say this in all earnest - "neutral position media does not make money". I think they're stirring up the pot to generate dollars.
It's disgusting. I read a NYT article recently and every chance they had to throw race in they could in awkward sentences. "Baker, a white man, confronted Black man Robinson about the incident."
From Wikipedia: Black Man Robinson was a well loved but little known blues artist from the 1930’s. Born in Blue Ridge, Georgia, Robinson would later inspire the Lynyrd Skynyrd song “The Ballad of Curtis Loew” with his moniker of “The finest picker to ever play the blues”.
Center right according to who? No one anyone thinks is worth listening to.
Regardless that wouldn’t make it still the leftist problem. The publican leaning a particular way doesn’t change that the perspective is obviously heavily woke.
It doesn’t matter who anyone says they identity with, it’s just dumb and that’s the problem.

Diversity is the work of the weak minorities unifying to stay relevant. There is a reason whites used blacks as slaves... and not vice versa. Whites also used Asians as slaves. The weak get exploited by the strong. Diversity is just blacks and Asians whining "We are too weak to hang with whites, so we want society to be dumbed down to our level!"
I agree I think its riducalaus and doesn't focus on real problems too do with racisim I think muck of idea of diversity and multiculturalism is actually rooted in manipulation and racisim in 20th century in Canada amirica austrilla and New Zealand they believed in so called multicultrilisim by kidnapping native children and putting them in "redeuction camps" in the name of inntagration and diversity when realty it was culture genocide.
Honestly it should be able a person's skills and talent than race I don't believe there should always be a different race in a white group ofc it's gonna be white it's italian lol
This is not democracy to be honest since people were never asked about what they think of "diversity," multiracialism and other liberal things. People don't support those things, but it was forced onto them anyway.
What we have in the West is the good ol' plutocracy.
We have a female voting majority and only men must register for Selective Service or become felons, be fined and lose voting rights. Women did this. For the record: article 4 secton 4 of the U. S. Constitution guarantees a Republican form of government.
Nonsense or they'd lobby for change. Only white men don't receive Affirmative Action in universities and the workplace, violating the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment. Follow the money, king.
White men are not "lobbying for change" either. Most of us keep hoping that some Republican idiot will do something against (neo) liberalism when it's obvious that Republicans are part of the scheme themselves.
False. Just because you're lazy doesn't mean we are. We're about to make women register for Selective Service and Affirmative Action is next to go. americanmilitarynews.com/.../
You're not only lazy. You're stupid and oblivious to reality. You have no clue about what you're doing. You obviously want to blame women for our society misfortune when it's rich people pushing for the radical transformation of our society into the liberal shithole we've been seeing.
We wouldn't be living in a liberal shithole right now if white men didn't embrace self-crippling ideas like individualism and liberal capitalism. It's obvious that as a group we don't have a good strategy for our own survival.
Both men and women have biases toward females, with the later having a five times stronger bias. Your "muh elites" hypothesis isn't wrong but neither is my "muh wimminz" assertion. They're voting commie because they're in no danger of their daughters being drafted in war or being homeless, thanks to welfare programs like Affirmative Action. Capitalism works (f liberal everything) and collectivism is inferior to collectivism because a group of individualists still has a collective will. I love how passionate you are! I'm Forgotten FuRyan on YouTube. For fun: Palindrama Of MeWe by ya boi: https://youtu.be/DBI9tE_XVoo
It's insidious and always has been. "It's ok to be every single thing except white or straight" which depending on where you are could literally be the vast majority of the population, especially straight.
Not only is it a cult but a religion. I consider Woke to be a false religion that worships the false god called equality.

The economist is a capitalist center right paper, of course they won’t talk about increasing worker wages and eliminating billionaire leeches. But diversity is objectively a good thing. As the world becomes more multicultural, isolated races just means weakness. We need to move beyond the made up concept of race.
Absolutely! I forgot that you're a billionaire, pink anon. It's good for you to spread division in order to distract the growing impoverished masses. And, of course, it's bad for you that there are communities and sports teams comprised of white people.
lol i just said diversity is indeed strength. Race is just a stupid made up concept by the Portuguese slave traders in the late 1400s. Anyone still attached to "white" just fell for their arbitrary divisions.
Lol, rich kid. Are you interrupting your luxury yacht party to blabber shit on here?
I know that diversity is a strength, but for whom? Well, I'm sure that diversity is very interesting for your social class, since they get more consumers, more voting fodder and also create more division to distract the masses from their own disenfranchisement. Great strategy.
But for the 99? Nah, it's not a strength, not at all.
Now let me clarify one interesting aspect of the world's cultural scenario these days. The world is not becoming more multicultural but LESS MULTICULTURAL since different societies across the world are becoming increasingly Americanized/Westernized as the time goes.
Which means the exact opposite of what you're saying, the world is becoming more monocultural as everyone watches Disney/Hollywood/Netflix, eats at KFC/McDonalds/Burger King, wears jeans/suits, dates on Tinder and embraces American liberalism.
@UncleJessieRabbit Well for one, the more multicultural a place the less racist it is. The most multicultural cities on earth (think Toronto) are extremely safe, peaceful places. There is an exchange of culture, foods, ways of looking at things. It's just great to see my little sister hang out with people from all over the world. A place that is all "white" is usually pretty crappy.
#1 I told you that our (Western) societies aren't becoming multicultural and I pointed out the reasons why. Prove me wrong if you can.
#2 If a place is crappy for being all white, are you saying that a place is crappy for being all black too? Or are your standards double in this case and made to pick on white people?
Anon, I don't know what you are looking at in the cities, unless you indeed are a billionaire and have the luxury of living in a guarded residence.
First off, you say that the more multiracial and multicultural a city is, the less racist it is. I don't see there being any evidence to back this up objectively. If anything, there is some evidence that indicates it is more the opposite effect than what you say. It is simply not true at all that cities have low crime rates. What stuff have you been reading about that?
Every race and culture having something it can only keep to itself and different varieties of skin colors and hair, eyes, genetic traits are what adds beauty to our world, it does not take away from it.
You will get every of your replies deleted if you don't challenge the arguments I put above in our discussion.
Stop deflecting. Try to make your brain work for a minute and come back with an interesting argument instead of parroting The Economist's talking points.
You seem to be incapable of doing so, I'll help you:
"I think our society is becoming more multicultural because of... (reasons). So I think you're wrong when you said that the world is becoming more monocultural, non-Western/American cultures are not vanishing because... (reasons) and the world is not becoming Americanized despite of the omnipresence of American culture.
I think white communities suck, but I'm not racist/hateful/prejudiced because... (reasons)."
Do it or shut up. I won't let you repeat the same talking points over and over again.
better, but yeah multicultural is the best, you want a mix, all "white" places are super boring, thankfully the whole world is getting multicultural so it's getting better everywhere
good lord you are boring, I answered your question, I said they were better but still not the best. Maybe you need to learn how to read. You should read it 100 times if it helps you lol
How exactly am i racist? here's a news flash for you westerner. Race means precisely dick in the balkans and eastern Europe. We divide ourselves by nationality.
Also, what would be the point of being racist? there's like 10 black people living in my country. They integrated into our society, so why would anyone care.
And yet diverse places nearly universally have low social capital, high crime, and worse health outcomes for all races compared to all-White or all-East Asian places.
@grega239 Nationality is so dumb. It's something idiots hang on to. People who have never read history, and how terrible nationalism has been to Europe specifically...
lol, I'm not even Western you dork. If you think nationalism is a good thing, then you are just ignorant of 20th century history. Like EXTREMELY ignorant. Go read a book and get back to me.
@grega239 lol, so you live in a non-multicultural state? That sucks, you haven't seen how much better it is when it's multicultural. It's SO much better.
Nationalism in Europe is bad? Oh let me guess you're gonna bring up nazis. Well guess what. Nazi means national socialist. Emphasis on the socialist. 2. Nationalism is the reason people fought back against nazis. They resisted a genocidal regime that invaded their nation. 3. do you really expect people to give up their national identity, their cultural uniqueness and the history of their ancestors? Because if thats your argument, never bring up history again.
And since you're such a fan of multiculturalism. Name one successful multicultural country currently in existence.
Here are some that ended violently for the most part. Rome fell apart Genghis khan's empire, gone. Alexanders empire , gone. The holy roman empire, gone. the russian empire-civil war. The Soviet union, fell apart. Yugoslavia-civil war and genocide. The ottoman empire broke up after ww1. Austria-Hungary-ruined by ww1. Every colonial empire dissolved by the end of ww2. The UK- the Scottish want to leave. The EU- Britain left, eastern European member states are defying EUs bullshit politics.
All of these existed as multicultural superstates and none of them survived.
The eu is next. So please , spare me this "multiculturalism is good" garbage.
@grega239 You have no idea what Nazi ideology is all about. The core of fascism is ultra-nationalism. Your people (the aryan "race" is superior to others). The socialism comes from the anti-jewish capitalism in the form of small jewish run shops, and against "international/globalism" in the form of jewish banking.
The Nazis allied with the right wing corporate class to form government, and became extremely capitalist. They even had their plans out for tender in 1943! Long after all the allies went into full socialist controlled production.
My father is an author and historian on fascism. I know my stuff. You don't
Diversity is just another word for "anti-white". They don't want diversity, they want less white everywhere, and when there aren't any white left in a place, you won't see them ask for "diversity".
I’m Italian American, I like seeing Italian players since they represent Italians. If left wing idiots have a problem with it they should start their own diversity league.
Shitlibs claim that hockey is racist, just like they are now claiming that the Italian national team is racist too. These dumbasses have nothing better to do than pick on white people, it seems.
They make an issue of the fact the Italian team, a european sports team, does not force one of their players off the team for the sole purpose of getting rid of a white sportsman. Its definitely anti white and I don't see how you cannot see it.
