POV: When you experienced racism at the World Cup
Transcript
Well, they did it. FIFA finally solved racism. Introducing the no racism gesture that players around the world can use to report racist incidents during a match. And honestly, that's foolproof. I've never seen anyone do something racist to someone with their arms in an x. It's kinda like, garlic to a vampire sort of situation. Stop being racist to me. Stop it. It works every tier. Except for the one time that someone did the x, it didn't work. The Egyptian coach threw up the x against Argentina. And instead of anything happening, the Egyptian guy got a yellow card. And that just goes to show FIFA's order of rules, which is don't be racist. But more importantly, don't be a snitch. No one likes a fucking tattletale, bro. And honestly, I kinda get it. It's like, how can you tell if someone's really being racist? Do you have to check v a r when someone throws up the x? Do you have to go in there and be like, how far back were they pulling their eyelids? Is that racist or is he just getting something out of his eye?
