Okay I’ve gladly also never seen this in league football. Normally just a jersey and a scarf, which can hardly be called cosplay. Fair point!
But I especially thought cosplay is especially impersonating somebody. Might be my own bias; but otherwise I know it as fancy dress or whatever, not cosplaying.
Very much depending on where you are. Pretending to commit or to have committed a felony (idk the minutiae of translations; Straftat in German) is one in itself over here. Fake it and instantly make it, yay!
This is said pretty often on the internet but as a sports fan I don’t get it.
Like, if I wear my favourite player’s jersey, I don’t wanna portray them in any kind or form. It’s a show of support and a form of tribalism, really, that can easily be mocked without wildly misinterpreting it.
I wanted to find a good analogy but first came up with wearing colours to sports events, ha! But really it’s like wearing a band shirt on a live show; nobody’d call that cosplaying.
Edit: of course there’s full kit wankers but in decades of visiting mainland European footie stadiums I’ve only ever seen one. Seems to be a British thing. Let’s not talk about them.
I mean, people love vinyl to this day. I do. There’s something homely about the little cracks and imperfections of each record. I own a Mozart record my mother used to play for me to fall asleep and there are better recordings but none hits the same. I guess it’s similar.
Meh, hard disagree. Outright intentional racism (and of other forms of hate) are terrible, but at least they’re openly visible.
The more dangerous form is the everyday unintentional ingrained beliefs that people have even against their core values, like how I am more impressed by a female programmer or the way I at first misread that meme.
It’s those that are more widespread and make it so much harder to eradicate the openly intentional hate.
Yeah and IIRC the dude the Internet misogynists decided was responsible for most of the code said ‘Shut up everyone I did some leg work, but she did the heavy lifting.’ Plus he’s queer or something else which would have had those fuckers in shambles had they known.

Aaaanyway, LLAP!
