FIFA President Gianni Infantino hit back at critics in remarks at a press conference as the World Cup got underway. Today I feel Qatari. Today I feel Arabic. Today I feel African. Today I feel gay. Today I feel disabled. Today I feel [like] a migrant worker, Infantino said, as reported in The Guardian. Of course I am not Qatari, I am not an Arab, I am not African, I am not gay, I am not disabled. But I feel like it, because I know what it means to be discriminated [against], to be bullied, as a foreigner in a foreign country. As a child I was bullied because I had red hair and freckles, plus I was Italian, so imagine, Infantino said, later adding I feel like a woman, too!
