Yeah, that's what I hate about that argument that's been brought up many times in this thread.
'Well, we didn't boycott this, and if you boycott the Olympics you'll have to also boycott this and that".
No, no we don't. It would be perfectly acceptable to boycott this ****y country for their BS treatment of the LGBT community, while not also boycotting everything unjust in the entire world. And quite frankly anyone who isn't outraged by their treatment of gays, despite the fact that yes, there are worse things in the world, is pretty ridiculous, imo.
But at the end of the day, I would support a boycott if the athletes want it.
