If I was a dictator and had the resources of China, I would use AI to draw on masks on all attendees of the World Cup. Deep fakes are already being used everywhere. The government just needs to apply some photoshop and AI before releasing the videos to state media.
I think they were experimenting with this yesterday. I saw a mask drawn over one of the South Korean players.

I’m rooting for Poland, my favorite country.
You’re going to be invaded. Just for a change.
I’m looking forward to, will USA beat England for the 3rd time in its history and will Spain thrash Germany.
What was the second time?
EDIT: I get it. Some US Cup thing in '93
Yeah 1950 - 1993 however USA ladies team have won World Cup 4 times I think
I worded that badly, sounds like I want USA to win, not the case, but would prefer Spain beat Germany.

It didn’t read to me like you want the USA to win.
USA ladies team
Do they have titles? Are they royalty?
Come on Fulham!
This games like a cup final. Frantic stuff.
USA ladies Soccer team
Captain has title of captain, the other players have medals that can be classified as royalties of exemplary play.
Come on Fulham!
You know how to construct a Fulham brick!
USA ladies Soccer team
It’s actually the USA Women’s Soccer Team.
But you keep being you and refer to them as “ladies”.
So!
Gareth Bale with a cute little bun on his head. How precious!
Wanker.
When you’re a Muslim country playing in a Muslim nation, you’re always going to have 100% home support, unlike neutral places where spectators tend to go for the underdogs.
For Saudis, Iranis and their vile ilk, it’s always going to be a home game.

Yes.
I heard one of the Brit talking heads describe a game as “ordinary” yesterday. Ouch. They know how to hurt a guy.
