Plus, what kind of awful POS of a human do you have to be to feel like your ability to win a gold medal is worth genocide?
Are all olympic athletes also narcissistic psychopaths?

So...just that i understand your "argument".
Athletes that go to the pinnacle event of their lifetime of work and training...are "POS humans" because the country that hosts that event (as chosen by others that the athletes have no say in) is a country that acts despicable?
Ridiculous. The only ones this hurts are the athletes. Full stop.
Again, simple question.
Canada boycotts China games,
What does that actually do to stop the genocide?
And no, they cant just have "another Olympics" elsewhere. The entire goal of the athletes is to compete against the others from around the entire world which isnt possible should a bunch of countries attend one or the other.
We need to look back no further than the 1980's to see what that accomplished.
