I've been looking for this tweet. Will pin it to my account as a reminder of the threat of disinformation, doublespeak. x.com/kasparov63/status/8087…

The point of modern propaganda isn't only to misinform or push an agenda. It is to exhaust your critical thinking, to annihilate truth.

Not that they were going to win, but Curaçao were 1-1 & had some momentum in the first half when the hydration break came.
A hydration break in a closed stadium on a slow pitch with a controlled temperature of 21 degrees. Germany ran away with it after that. #FIFAWorldCup

The Orange Army is one of the greatest fan groups in world football.
I was at the 2010 final & a pair of 747s plane loads of fans flew from Amsterdam to Johannesburg on the eve of the game.
They just wanted to be there. #NothingLikeOranje #FIFAWorldCup

Dutch great Ruud Gullit, one of the finest players from Holland, speaks beautifully about Canada’s multicultural men’s team & what it says to him about the country they represent. Give it a listen. 🇨🇦⚽️#FIFAWorldCup
Tell it Ruud! This is what Canada is. Unlike some countries, that will remain nameless, we embrace other cultures and people’s differences. 🍁 🇨🇦

Listen to Toronto Stadium, and ex-Canada and Premier League defender @davidedgar141, bursting with joy as Kyle Larin scores the goal that earns the #FIFAWorldCup co-hosts their first ever point in the Finals. 🇨🇦
