EA Sports announced that it has removed the Russian national team and club teams from “FIFA 22.”

FIFA suspended Russian teams from all international soccer on Monday after Russia began its invasion of Ukraine. FIFA and UEFA banned Russian national and club teams from their competitions, including 2022 World Cup qualifying matches, “until further notice.”

“EA Sports stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian people and like so many voices across the world of football, calls for peace and an end to the invasion of Ukraine.

“In line with our partners at FIFA and UEFA, EA Sports has initiated the processes to remove the Russian national team and all Russian Clubs from EA Sports FIFA products including: FIFA 22, FIFA Mobile and FIFA Online. We’re also actively evaluating related changes to other areas of our games.

“We will keep our communities up to date on any actions taken, and thank players for their patience as we work through these updates.”

I, for one think it's great that we continue the dehumanizing of a couple hundred million people.

This is dumber than when we all started eating "Freedom Fries" when we got pissed off at France for something.

EA just went though severe backlash for excluding Russia from the Sims 4 Wedding expansion pack because they include the ability to have non-traditional (for lack of a better description) marriages. But they wound up releasing it anyway.

Those are one in the same, my man.

You don't have to look far to find someone calling them "animals"
Nobody is removing their human qualities or suggesting they don't have them.
Dehumanizing doesn't fit, and there's a better word to describe what you're saying, I just can't think of what it is.

Removing them altogether certainly seems like removing their human qualities. So does firing them. We all agree humans have the right to work. Not Russians though. Fuck them.
