Somewhere in "poor mexico" there is a bit of european rocket mexico 🚀
Goddamnit we're so fucking stupid.
¡Viva México!
¡Cabrones!
The US education system has been hollowed out for decades now with the single goal of being able to put fascists into power. Only with a dumb population can you pull off such horrendous shit and still get away with a dumb excuse
The good thing about this is that there is so much incompetence going around that these fuckers will eventually break their new system by themselves.
To make a trump like expression that is actually true; The US economy is already a bubble the size like nobody has seen before. I for one can't wait for that economy to pop, maybe then Americans can be bothered to do something about trump
It's hard for racists to differentiate people with brown skin. They just all come from Brownskinistan.
I LOLed at "Soccer Mexico"
It's funny how Brazil is just ingrained in my subconsciousness as "The Soccer Country" along with like Spain I think
It's like those people who call all sodas "Coke."
The best part of this was how none of the "three Mexican countries" were Mexico.
Sad Agustín de Iturbide noises
I laughed when I saw "Soccer Mexico".
It's called football. Let's do the math.
Foot + ball = football
Rugby + kicking = footrugby.
Don't @ me.
Soccer is a British shortening of 'association football.' Aka association rules football.
In the 1860-90s, one of several competing games / variants of the same gsme all called football including rugby, then called rugby football (rugby being the name of the town/ school that game was popularized in)
American and canadian football are variants off of this version of 'rugby football,' Eventually dropping the name rugby (as they no longer had much association to that locale) british rugby, and its other variants, eventually dropped the football from their name.
Technically though, for the game we generally think of as football, association rules football, (which again, soccer is just a shortening of) is the proper name. For instance, If you look up fifa, their name is Fédération Internationale de Football Association literally the international association football federation.
And there are still other similar games that use football in the term, including american/ gridiron, Australian rules/ footy, and Gaelic football
Just calling it football is technically using a term for all of those sports. Association football, or 'soccer' is the actual sport and rules we all mean.
Rugby + kicking = Australian rules football
Referring to the Mexican states?
My head was having trouble not correcting it to 'mexican counties'
Last time I checked Argentina was wold cup champion and Brazil got humiliated by Germany 7:1. So it's Soccer Mexico and Samba Mexico.
Oh come on, give them a break. Brazil still has the most world cup wins under their belt, Argentina doesn't even make the top 3
Germany didn't give them a break at 6:0 and neither will I.
Germany definetly slowed down after the 5:0, the rest was training
Poor brazil. They have gone up against germany since then, and definitely cleared away the poor results from that one match.
for anyone wondering if this actually happened, it did. (in 2019)
Back when Drinky Pete was just an alcoholic fascist stooge and not Secretary of 🙄 “War” . . and also an alcoholic fascist stooge.
I was just thinking posters should include the dates for the Trump posts.
And given the age of absurdity and stupidity we live in, they should also include a "certified not fake and not satire".
It really is frustrating how hard it can be sometimes to tell the difference. Nothing sounds too ridiculous anymore.
“Archipelago” is kind of a big word for their typical viewer, huh?
I know Arch-ipelago, BTW.
Arch-i-pelago.
Isn’t that the doorway into Mar-a-lago?
Yes, the area you get pegged by an Archie lookalike.
Literally where can I sign up
Get them to pronounce it.
This is still far too generous - it assumes that they:
- Know where the Falklands are (and they they are British)
- Know where Brazil is
- Know where actual Mexico is
- Can spell "archipelago"
- Wouldn't call Chile "helicopter Mexico"
Malvinas son de Argentina!
Just because Argentina landed there 500 years ago doesn't mean it's theirs
Lol. Exactly.
Meat Mexico’s gonna be pissed when they find out their arch-rivals got Soccer Mexico
Soccer Mexico's endless meat buffets would also like a word
I love a rodizio
Wait until they hear about the mexistans.
I’d go with Tex-Mexico myself
Can anyone pick out what Ecuador is in this map? The compression is keeping me from deciphering it. The rest are pretty funny.
I think it's MS13...
In this slightly higher-res copy, it does appear to be "MS13". (Which makes about as much sense as labeling Uruguay "west"...)
Looks like "72$83 Mexico"
I would go with “Turtle Mexico” cause of the Galapagos. I know they’re not turtles, but I think that adds to the effect.
Is that battle plan leaking secretary of WAR Peter Hegsheeth? Hoo rah?
