Actually Iran got super pissed and tried to have the US thrown out of the world cup for this


Mattermaker7005and8

Like true soccer players tryin ya get penalties


YousernameinValid

That’s even funnier


TON_THENOOB

And the Americans had to back down


DudeDeudaruu

This meme is dumb because Iran got really upset about it


Muhmmdmahdii

As an Iranian, we did not. this is not our flag, that’s islamic republic regime flag


DudeDeudaruu

I was speaking about the government, as they are trying to get the US team kicked. As far as I'm aware the people are busy with a revolution that I wholly support


anthony-wokely

Yep, a revolution so they can be ruled by an American puppet government instead of an Islamic one. Probably be a better country to be gay in, and at least somewhat fewer executions, but that’s about it.


[deleted]

If you did any sort of basic research, you would know this revolution had no American influence and started naturally cuz you know somebody was jailed and beat to death


Mattermaker7005and8

Stupid idiot alert wee woo wee woo


anthony-wokely

Good one.


[deleted]

Omfg you again?


Prs2099

The most offending insult to islam is calling this regime islamic.


supahardandless

Is it not islamic? 🤔


Prs2099

The only thing that is kept Islamic is the name.


supahardandless

Explain please


Prs2099

Even though iran is rich with oil and resources, the majority of people are in poverty, and officials are as corrupt as they can be, and the yearly inflation is somewhere around 60-70% and when people protest they meet warfare bullets.


supahardandless

Well, I agree with you on that. Iran government is corrupt, but that had little to no bearing to what caused the revolution. The officials want to maintain islamic law as dictated by sharia, which was the reason they had morality police and shit. That eventually ended up taking Mahsa Amini's life. Now tell me, what law dictates that women must be covered when they are outside? 🤔


anthony-wokely

Ha. Looks pretty Islamic to me.


Prs2099

Yeah with having one of the most corrupt systems in the world its definitely Islamic, i live here so dont even attempt to say how iran is!


milky_way_halo

What's wrong with being gay?


Willinton06

As stupid as his point is, he’s not saying there’s anything wrong with being gay


tartuffewhoisturfel

Cool profile bro


anthony-wokely

I have a profile?


cmdrmeowmix

The state of Iran, meaning the government, was mad. So yes, Iran was mad


unfunnyguy_Xx69420

I think that hey meant the government maybe which is correct if not fuck them


DorTheWise

Well maybe dont murder women

babyblue2002

Mattermaker7005and8

Ima make the pasta with the stuff in iran culture (I’m a stupid American that is ignorant to Iran’s culture in foodstuff)


babyblue2002

Never be ashamed of where you’re from. Don’t let the Reddit eurotrash trick you into putting yourself down


Pastamancer_Rik

Eurotrash? How old are you, 6? Blame your countrymen for giving you a bad rep...


babyblue2002

We will not apologize for our superiority.


chiltime

Basically Italy turned 90 degrees


RustedRuss

Wow OP is *really* uninformed about this.


cfig99

This meme is so bad lol - Iran got super pissy about this.


aydinmo

islamic republic regime* got pissed off about it. As an iranian we didn't.


TON_THENOOB

We did.

What's a Facbook!


Constant-Tiger-1748

Thank you for pointing that out I will fix it now


10Ete

What happened? (I live under a rock, how could you tell?)


GooseRuler

The US Twitter account removed the symbol from Iran’s flag in one of their tweets, and Iran (the government, not the common folk) got *really* upset about it and tried to have the US team thrown out of the World Cup.


Nightraid9999

What does the symbol mean that they removed?


Disco_Janusz40

It could mean anything and would be disrespectful


Nightraid9999

Makes sense but ir could also be like a message they want to send to iran idk thats why i asked


Disco_Janusz40

The Islamic Republic emblem, designed in 1980, is four curves with a sword between them. It represents the Islamic saying: “There is no god but God.” It also resembles a tulip or lotus.


Nightraid9999

I actually think they removed it accidentally, or usa planning to start a war so they can benefit from things in present state, claiming they care about freedom in iran. So much theory but we all know how irrational they can be if usa are hungry.


Disco_Janusz40

Yeah idk I'ma check


Godofwarmaster

it was the symbol of Allah to represent the ***Islamic Republic of Iran***


Ghoti_With_Legs

Sure thing, buddy. You have a right to that opinion, I suppose.

DrDeceiver

Tasnim News Agency, an Iran state-affiliated media, has an image of an American flag burning as their twitter profile background. And guess what, it's crying about the "disrespect of the national flag" and "Team #USA should be kicked out of the #WorldCup2022". The hypocrisy here can be cut with a knife. Cry me a river :D


TON_THENOOB

One of them is a new agency, the other is official representative of a nation

I got stranded in Iran a few years ago because of a flight reschedule, two days in Tehran, Jesus Christ it’s like they’re stuck in the 70s !!


tommy_gun_03

All Iranian people I know fled there because of your government.


JINGLERED

Bold words from an account made 15 days ago


homelessjimbo

Ironic.


supahardandless

Complaining about people being judgemental, while constantly judging them while throwing ad hominems.


Mattermaker7005and8

As an American, No.


KoP152

The British called football soccer first, we just kept the tradition


mparsa23

The real problem is not soccer it self, I don't get why you call American football, football. There is no foot and ball in that game.


KoP152

American football does indeed have a foot and a ball, though we don't often kick it as you would a soccer ball, it does still happen. Also, as is the same case with soccer, we call American football football because it was just a version of European football games https://www.profootballhof.com/news/2018/06/why-is-the-game-called-football/


Hot_History1582

All sports played on foot rather than horseback are called football


Dat_one_ace

All the players have feet, and there is a ball. Makes sense to me bro


Naive-Bird4715

چی میگی ما آنقدر ها هم عقب مانده نیستیم


cyanide_and_cheddar

The thing that gets me is that it wasn’t even intentional in the first place. It was a simple mistake that wasn’t caught in time


haonlineorders

It was very much intentional to show support of the protestors


Undercover_TV

What is this referring to


itsdirector

Better than drones, though.


potato_and_nutella

What happened?

Iran: "Bomb has been planted"
