This is hardly shocking considering the lack of POC on the Argentinian team. Maybe they aren’t taught to respect anyone that’s not white. 

A poc playing for the Argentinian team in 1925. 

What was happening in USA at that time?

Do you really think Argentina is racist because of "nazis"? Or are you just saying that bc you read a thread on twitter?

None. Its because I know damn well. My country suffers A LOT with racism, but Argentina is undeniably the most racist country here in south America. It's like they turned the south of Brazil in a whole country

Football having racism, homophobia and classism in their field? Color me shocked 

I'm not excusing any of the behavior tho. Sadly it's been like this for ages now and with the FIFA not giving any **** about human rights things will take a lot of time and effort to change.

I never understood the hype with sports 

like I get watching it and stuff but I’ve seen fans turn over parked cars after a game…

The Argentinian TEAM (not the fans) being snarky with Kylian (with the exception of a few, like Messi) could very well be due to him criticizing Lt Am football and the longstanding rumors that he's been straight up awful to many Lt Am and Brazilian players (including Neymar, who is Black).

I hesitate to call the entire team racist for singling out Mbappe, when there are other Black players that have played against before that they haven't singled out. It's LONG been said that he gets angry with players who don't speak French as PSG & was mad at them for speaking Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese in the locker room (ironically, he does speak some Spanish, too). So yes, while their behavior is immature, inappropriate, and dumb, I can understand why they might dislike Mbappe. And maybe it's a combination of them being racist & disliking Mbappe's alleged xenophobia towards Lt Am.

 

Not the fans? Here they are insulting Mbappé on french TV. The reporter also mentions that she's been hearing racist chants about him all day long.

I wouldn't use "rumors" about Mbappé being toxic as an excuse to actual proven toxicity. I haven't seen any toxic behavior from Mbappé. He only once said that Europe has an advantage in football because of the annual champions league which is a fact. Messi himself played in it for 15 years+.
 

And it's not just Mbappé here's a video of them insulting another black french player

He got under their skin and Argentinians are a bit full of themselves, so this win just inflated their already large egos lol

Sis I said some of the fans were being racist, but I hesitate to call the entire team racist based on a) fan behavior and b) knowing about the rumors about Kylian's attitude towards Lt Am players. I haven't seen any of the TEAM (again, not the fans) be racist so far...just petty and immature.

I also said it could very well be both...some of the players could be racist AND also made about alleged xenophobia.

In any case, what adds insult to injury is the fact Messi is RIGHT THERE. He should've shown leadership by stopping this behavior.

You should focus on racism in your country instead of looking for racism about a culture you don't understand.

8 years ago the Germans made fun of Argentines by calling us "gauchos" in a derogatory way and we didn't scream XENOPHOBIA because we understand how football culture works. 

[Poker 3,770]

Not people from racist countries coming for Argentinians lmao

French are known to hate on everyone who aren’t French. Americans are STILL racist. Europeans invaded and murdered thousands of natives in our continent. British enslaved and invaded half of the world. 
 

Yet, Argentinians are the “worst people” 

At least we respect women, the lgbt community, and our land welcomes EVERYONE and ANYONE who wants to live here. Some of your societies have a thing or two to learn from us.

Yes, I can agree that he should have stepped in and told them to cool off. My point was while the fan behavior is atrocious, I hesitate to smear the entire team as I haven't heard of them directly doing something racist & the singling out of Mbappe might be due to personal reasons. Again, though, it's petty and uncalled for.

[Frivolero 3,705]

and do you know what's worse than this? 

Many of mbappe's antis come to mock his alleged trans girlfriend and this is RAMPANT on TikTok. Poor boy.
