You didn’t invent FIFA and the World Cup, though, and you probably would have hosted one more if you hadn’t decided to get high on your own farts for so long. Yes, you got kind of snubbed in 1930 (I agree that the first World Cup should have been played in England), but that was partially also because of a lack of interest amongst the English. You not getting to host before 1966 is entirely on you. Hosting again is harder for European nations since no continent has that many potential hosts with the necessary infrastructure and football culture. Italy waited from 1934 to 1990, France from 1938 to 1998. And you don’t suffer more from FIFA „diversifying“ (= selling to sheikhs) the World Cup hosts than the rest of Europe does. England might have been a good host for 2018, but that’s like 0.5 cases of you getting treated badly, and Russia hosting is barely tolerable … compared to Qatar
Of course Bolivia shouldn’t be a host. The altitude conditions there suck, the country is irrelevant overall, they don’t have nearly enough infrastructure and wouldn’t be able to make use of it in the long run. And putting them in a combo-box of 10 hosts across multiple continents is only a good idea for FIFA megalomaniac bigwigs. But even then, Infantino saying this might just be a marketing stunt
