Also America has the same rec sport history with college football which was amateur for over a hundred years and took until only a few years ago to officially go pro.

For over decades the second largest sport in america was the amateur college football conferences which are now professional

Similar working class sports leagues used to exist in America but they all died probably like, 80 or so years ago.

The MLB and NFL were truly revolutionary in their tactics and ability to demolish the competition and monopolize a country the size of a continent.

There used to be dozens of baseball leagues for instance, separated by prestige, class, region, and race

They’re all gone now

No, it’s hers. She trans as a teen and then immediately started collected Rick and morty funkos.

Not true my girlfriend is trans and her dad’s closet is filled with hundreds of funkos

There are white nationalist soccer hooligan groups that teams refuse to get rid of

Hello trans historian here who has written about sports and currently lives in Europe but is from America

The reason why American sports and European sports have such wildly different cultures is the history of how the leagues were formed.

European professional sports come from the British. The Brits pro sports leagues were just the amateur leagues which eventually allowed professionalism. This meant that since the beginning the crowds have always been super hardcore into it and less family oriented and mostly adult working class men. It was the same people on the teams who was watching it.

In America professional sports originated with the creation of professional leagues separated the wildly popular amateur college sports system. These leagues like the NFL and MLB were able to have more dictation over security and over what kinda people they wanted at games.

So all these baseball and football teams in America very very very early on did promotions for families and for people to bring their wife and kids. Make it a family friendly event. That’s because before the 70s basically all the money was tied up in seat sales at games and they wanted more money. Instead of the working class did, you got two more tickets with his kid and wife.

Europeans were unable to follow this because teams were financially hostage to their fans and couldn’t risk changes that would make them leave. So instead they did the opposite where they did everything for the fans which created a culture that only allowed straight cis men. (This also led to clubs excusing hooliganism and white nationalist elements in their fanbases)

You see now since Americans and Arab gulf countries have bought all these teams, they’re trying to make the teams more 'family friendly " to sell more tickets and there’s been some backlash

It’s crazy that American sports are so much more welcoming to women and queer people because they know they can more money that way

I’m trans and I’m obsessed with football

That still is only there to benefit the capitalists of Europe, especially the larger economies as it makes brain drain from places like eastern Europe easier and faster

It literally makes it harder for the economies of poorer EU countries to hold onto skilled workers

The technocratic shit Germans do leads to the genocide

The eu doesn’t do anything but protect the capitalists of Europe and the occasional minor trade regulations that kinda help people like this.

They literally need this or else people would begin to realize that it doesn’t help them

I think that the death social democracy in Europe is legitimately scary to Europeans and everyone knows that America collecting checks now on NATO is gonna kill it.

Wtf makes Europe any better than America without social democracy? It has a worse economy that’s disorganized and too nationalistic to consolidate to compete.

I think the liberals are scared because they know that when safety nets and healthcare are cut it’s gonna put them out of power, and they know America is forcing this so they are instead of pivoting away from America, throwing a little temper tantrum.

It’s gonna happen, everyone knows that America is gonna drain as much money as if possibly can out of Europe by collecting NATO bills and shit before the American empire dies.

The global capitalist class will use America to pillage Canada, Europe, Australia, Japan, Korea, etc on the way out of the empire and literally none of these countries will pivot away.

First they came for the housing and I said nothing as I lived with my mom

Then they came for the healthcare and I said nothing as I have a healthy diet of Doritos and mtn dew

Then they came for gaming and there was nobody to speak for me

Trump likes loyalists and neocons weren’t loyal in 2016 so he picked his guys and since then the GOP is becoming the trump party

For decades before trump there was a neocon pipeline that produced intelligent evil like you saw in the bush administration

But trump chose his loyalists in trump 1, his lawyers and friends,

And now trump 2 is podcasters and Fox News

He has killed the pipeline of talent
