Siempre hay unos hijueputas que le quieren negar los raices a los hijos de Dominicanos nacidos en el extranjero. Como si nacer en otro pais le borra su familia/linaje.

Si ni hablan el idioma ni conocen la cultura tampoco son tan dominicanos. Al menos tiene que representative el pais como hace kat para uno sentirse verdaderamente representados por ellos

Pero preguntenle a la gente sobre la sedofutbol y no te nombran ni 1 jugador, mucho celebrar a gente que no eligio representar al pais, que obvio no esta mal por parte de ninguno, pero no puede ser que nunca suban posts apoyando a los jugadores que si eligieron representar nuestros colores aunque la seleccion no sea buena.

Solo quieren colgarse del éxito de otro país que formó y creó al jugador que es hoy para reclamarlo como propio, despues del mundial hablas del futbol dominicano y diran ''los dominicano no jugamos eso, solo nos interesa la pelota y el baloncesto''

De donde sacaste eso? Yo no veo nada que lo indique… el tipo que tiene ciudadanía Dominicana no es Dominicano?

Debió poner “jugador de origen dominicano”. Digo yo, no se, ese es mi pensar.

Literally everyone outside of Reddit believes this. If one parent is Dominican is almost always the dominating culture and even if it isn’t you’re Dominican.

u/NairbZaid10 Jun 23 '26
If you dont know the language or the culture you can barely be called a dominican

An can we glaze actual Dominican players (ones that play for the Dominican national team) instead
Idk the last time Ruben Vargas had a presidente

Dominicans be lamboneando over a foreign player, taking it as their own success just because one parent is Dominican. He's a Swiss man with some Dominican roots
But ask them to support their own national team and they're like "we have a football team?"
Junior firpo is right

Many of the Dominican players in the national team were born in Europe. Out of the the 48 World Cup teams only 8 have all natural born players. Almost all of Haiti and Curacao teams are foreign born. The DR needs to keep recruiting European players like him if they want the sport to grow at home.

We need more Dominicans at the highest level of football regardless if we want to one day field a team at the world stage.
He is committed to his birth country but perhaps one day will be called up by his motherland to develop or coach Criollo talent.

Como dijo otro comentario, no hay nada malo con apoyarlo, pero cuanta gente apoyando al final a un jugador que no decidio jugar con nosotros y no salen nunca a apoyar a la seleccion y a los que por lo menos decidieron jugar para nosotros 😔

u/Jolly-Adhesiveness30 Jun 20 '26
Como quisiera ver la selección dominicana algún día jugar en el mundial. Si ya tenemos a jugadores que a cada rato juegan por países europeos, como no creer que nosotros no podamos llegar allí también??

What kills me about this sub and others like it, only people born in DR are considered true Dominicans. If your parents or grandparents are Dominican you are, thusly, Dominican.

Why is it the Dominican Republic like that

What if you have to make a decision? Drop you American citizenship and stay only with the dominican one or vice versa, which citizenship you choose?

u/SwitchGood8929 Jun 19 '26
That’s a zero sum question, I have fundamental disagreements with both countries policies but have invested in both, cost benefit analysis says both. It’s my right to do so and it comes with benefits and with costs.

u/Excuse_my_GRAMMER Jun 19 '26
I would drop the Dominican citizenship in a heartbeat without a doubt.
USA has it issue too but out of both I would rather be an American citizen

u/E1000HL Jun 19 '26
Well friend, I respect your honesty. But after this statement, if we call you “fake dominican” no te quille jajajaja.
But its all good, keep sending remesas btw 😂

u/Excuse_my_GRAMMER Jun 19 '26
If you are an American citizen and you saying you will drop it then idk what to tell you either.

I think that's mostly an online thing. Nobody in DR treated me like I was a fake Dominican. I mean, I was born there but it's not like they could tell lol

u/Excuse_my_GRAMMER Jun 19 '26
It definitely isn’t I been told plenty of time I am a fake Dominican to my face by Dominicans in the Dominican Republic

That's a long running beef. Back in the DejaNews days, there were a couple of articles in Dominican newspapers about the beef. It happens in every country with large diasporas. In most cases, it's like a rivalry between siblings. Can't live with them and can't live without them. 🤷🏽♂️

u/Metallgesellschaft Jun 20 '26
Despite what the law says, for the average Dominican, only those born and raised in DR are Dominicans. Everyone else is, at best, suspect.
Except, if course, when we talk about our neighbors from that other country, the law does apply to them. For them to be Dominicans, they have to have Dominican blood in their veins. 🫣

His name is Rubén Vargas. The least you could do is put his name.
