"Okay marketing team, as I'm sure you're well aware, almost no one cares about the Olympics anymore, especially the Summer Olympics. So let's kick it around the room and see what we can come up with to anger and drive away the few viewers we have left."

Yesterday I dropped a colleague from India off at the airport and we had a drink before he went through security. The TV at the airport terminal bar had the opening ceremonies on it. We saw the weird pale robotic horse on the river boat, and he definitely had a bemused WTF reaction. His two weeks in the U.S. were privy to the assassination attempt on Trump, the ousting of Biden and the anointing of Kamala Harris. Certainly an eventful trip. I told him not to come back for a while...

I like the Olympics period.

I didn't like the opening ceremony at all. Yes, it was disgusting.

If you're familiar with any of my threads you will see I'm a life long soccer player and fan.

That's why I watch, because I enjoy the games...

I love watching disciplined people strive for greatness and athletic excellence.

I don’t care about their politics or the music they like, I just want to witness their joy (or share in their sorrow) as they compete in an event they’ve trained their whole lives for.

There's a photo of a "performer" with his testicle hanging out at the OC.
Bullshit it was a "malfunction".

I love watching to support these athletes that strive everyday to be the greatest at their craft.
I don’t watch for the opening ceremonies.

No, God trying to give the fucking commies a clue.

And SC is correct, I saw the photo yesterday. The IOC appointed a "queer" artist advocate as Artistic Director for the Olympics, and this is his "vision" for global unity. Roll Eyes

I have been a sports fan for most of my adult life, and I have jettisoned almost all of it, but the Olympics have reached a new low. The globalists have control of the Games and are shoveling this shit more than Bud Light has ever imagined.

So when a company does something abhorrent but you like the product, I'm assuming you still continue to buy the product?

The whole "I like it so I'll buy/watch anyway" attitude is what has allowed this stuff to permeate into everything.

^^^He's NOT blaming you, but by your actions you (and others!) DO contribute to the support for it. Until the overwhelming majority say HELL NO, all of it will continue to fester and metastasize within civilized society! They're debasing western culture/civilization and perpetuating evil...Just Say No!

If I have to address the scolding posts again, I'm bringing suspensions with me to hand out.

On the flip side, I would expect members to be aware of the unpopularity of the Olympics this time around and to take it easy on the commentary of particular events, though, to be perfectly clear, I am not telling anyone that they can't comment at all on events they're interested in. Just make your post count.

That's as fair as I can be.
