In a previous BirdSite life I was a disillusioned AI fridge, but here I'm an altogether quieter, more helpful appliance. IRL I'm a retired filmmaker who lives in the front line of climate change... on a New Zealand beach at sea level. Born 313.2 ppm when the air was cleaner, and we weren't force fed CO2 and microplastics. As a cynical optimist I love the peaceful Mastodon atmosphere. People are generally nicer in these parts.

FIFA's Americanisation of the World Cup
Hover or focus to reveal
Sensitive
Fresh from perverting the beautiful game to allow more commercials (extended half times & drinks breaks), overturning a red card at Trump's request and degrading FIFA's reputation by presenting the warmonger Trump with a made-up bling 'peace' prize, FIFA President Gianni Infantino's Trump-sucking has reached its climax.
He's proposed selling 20% of the World Cup business to American venture capitalists, specifically Jared Kushner's brother.
The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) unanimously says 'Nah.' Their statement.
“As a result of today’s discussion, no Uefa national teams will participate in any Fifa competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety and binding assurances have been given that Fifa will never again open its governance or competitions to private ownership,” it read.
Kudos to UEFA and Infantino really needs to take a walk. Off a plank, preferably.

MEPs demand Infantino testify over FIFA’s investment plan.
The European Parliament is set to call FIFA President Gianni Infantino for a hearing over his controversial plan to allow private investment in its competitions, which has met with furious backlash in the football world and led European football associations to threaten a boycott of the next World Cup.

So many implications here.
It’s a #union .
#infantino should be canned after this and the implications are clear to fascists of the world, including #trump , #kushner , #mbs , #putin , #milei .
But the document, warning of shareholders’ erosion of a good thing, any good thing, should be required reading for every democratic lawmaker, and especially now in the #us , as football futbol soccer dies the same way democracy does, assailed by the same, predictable, villains.

Quoting
I hope you are having a better day than Gianni Infantino, because UEFA just pulled its 55 nations' football teams from all future FIFA competitions including the future World Cups.
Corruption has consequences.

🔴⚽️FLASH - L’Union des associations européennes de football (#UEFA) annonce qu’aucune nation européenne, parmi lesquels la France et l’Espagne, championne du monde en titre, ne participera aux prochaines compétitions de la #FIFA, y compris donc la Coupe du monde, après l’annonce par Gianni Infantino d’ouvrir la FIFA aux investisseurs privés.

Aha. Die #UEFA gehört also gerade zu den Guten™. Ich bin mal gespannt, wie lange das anhält.

"FIFA is seeking to raise up to $8.2 billion in capital & has approached Josh Kushner's Thrive Capital as one of its prospective cornerstone investors..."
Josh #Kushner is a brother of #Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Also– powerful #UEFA statement 👀
~"We unanimously & unequivocally reject FIFA's proposal to transfer ownership interests in the World Cup & other #FIFA competitions to private investors. The World Cup cannot be treated as an investment product..."

Breaking: UEFA lays into Infantino.....
"This is not merely a profound failure of leadership, but an abdication of FIFA’s duty as the custodian of world football.
"This is not a “democratic decision”, but governance by intimidation – an act of coercion unworthy of an institution entrusted with the stewardship of the global game"
And much more...

#UEFA Union of #European #Football Associations has drawn a line in the sand: #FIFA can not pass ownership of the #WorldCup to private investors
Imagine the World Cup without Spain, Germany, France, etc
Could happen
#Plutocracy is gobbling up the world
So an important stand against corrupt avarice
