Rules for Thee (Soccer Naming Double Standard Meme)

This is a three-panel dialogue meme repurposing a scene from the Marvel film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. In the first panel, the character Wanda Maximoff is labeled 'USA' and says 'Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and South Africa call it soccer and no one bats an eye.' The second panel shows Doctor Strange, labeled 'The world', responding 'I call it soccer and everyone loses their shit...'. The final panel cuts back to the USA-labeled Wanda looking confused and saying 'That doesn't seem fair.' The meme satirizes the perceived double standard in global online discourse: the United States is widely mocked for using the term 'soccer' to refer to association football, while other majority English-speaking countries that use the same term receive no similar criticism for the naming choice.

This meme is sourced from the RSS feed of Reddit's r/Meme community, as specified in the provided context. It is a remix of a widely used meme template taken from a confrontation scene between Wanda Maximoff and Doctor Strange in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, a template commonly used to highlight perceived unfair double standards or hypocritical rules. The template was edited with text labels and dialogue relevant to the long-running internet debate over whether to call the sport 'soccer' or 'football'.
