    The Danish football association has also stated that they will not participate in a competition where Russia participates.

      Danish football should also boycott their TV station for comparing morrocan players to monkeys

            IDK the audio only says something about someone being united with his family in Qatar, and that audio is dubbed onto a clip of a news anchor with a print out of some monkeys hugging, interlaced with pictures of Moroccan football players hugging women.

            Something’s a bit “off” with this story. One thing is that the anchor is holding the picture clued to cardboard (or it’s printed directly, doesn’t really matter) which is a step above just printing it on the office printer. That means it would be deliberate, which is something I don’t buy. But what really really sets off my rat detector is that I consume a lot of news, but I haven’t heard anything about this before. Danish news outlets are super bored during the summer, and this story would have been good for a couple of days, depending on how it’s handled.

            Thanks. Seems like it needs a bit more context though, the clip doesn’t really explain anything in detail. I hate this kind of editing.

            But I hope no one doubts that Denmark is also an extremely racist country because it really is and proves itself to be time after time (even regardless of this.)
