With Uruguay on the field, it's time for Galeano (never more prescient than on the day a 40yo man from a team that's never qualified clean sheeted the favorites, but couldn't celebrate with him mom bc racism kept her out of the country).

Thrilled that our cop-loving, developer-supported mayor is welcoming this nonsense.

This is about 2/3 of the way through NWSL's 2025 season hype video. The former owner tried to (unsuccessfully) ban the anti-facist Iron Front symbol on this flag in 2019, now its part of the league's own image of itself. Either NWSL don't know what it means and that history, or the right person did.
