Schon etwa im 3. Jahrhundert v. Chr. wurde in China ein fußballähnliches Spiel mit dem Namen Cuju (Ts’uh-küh) ausgetragen.

@wastl

und nach den Regeln spielen die in USA ?

[giliell@mastodon.social]

@kevinrns Stabil!
("Stable" here means to stand true to humanitarian values and not being swayed by right wing discourse. It's become a fixed expression in German)

[giliell@mastodon.social]

@virgil_tibbs @kevinrns Holy cupcake, that's the reply you feel is needed here?

[wastl@mastodon.social]

@virgil_tibbs
In den USA gelten Regeln?

@Giliell @kevinrns
I consider Werder's behavior to be self-evident.

[giliell@mastodon.social]

@virgil_tibbs @kevinrns Oh great, a reply guy

[kevinrns@mstdn.social]

@virgil_tibbs

Its for a different audience, who use the word differently.

No one has ever head that before.

[kevinrns@mstdn.social]

@Giliell

@kevinrns
Great.
I wonder whether they would have invoked "let's not politicise sport", had they been called on to not play in Israel which has been killing Palestinians daily for decades.

[drcampbell@mastodon.social]

@kevinrns I'm confused about their signs

[slothrop@chaos.social]

@kevinrns Nice!

And I appreciate the very German bluntness of the message.

[gruenefriedrichstadtnf@mastodon.de]

@kevinrns
Wow! Das nenne ich Haltung.
@werderbremen Vielen Dank dafür.

[kevinrns@mstdn.social]

@DrCampbell

Raus is OUT! It means more than fuck off, it means throw out

[atanasoff@mastodon.social]

@kevinrns they'll have trouble finding a city in amerika where people are not shot.

[kevinrns@mstdn.social]
