Why is the world not boycotting the Chinese Olympics?

[Votto]

The world acknowledges China is engaged in mass genocide. Check

The world knows that China killed off the doctors who tried to warn of Covid to the rest of the world. Check

The world knows that once China knew about the Covid crisis, they stopped travel into their country to try and prevent more from coming in, but continued to let people leave and travel abroad to seed the virus elsewhere. Check.

Meanwhile, democrats boycott the city of Atlanta because the government passed some voting legislation the democrats did not like?

Unfortunately, everyone who makes these decisions is on the payroll of the CCP.

That's why.

 

[Otis Mayfield]

A lot of countries aren't sending formal delegations.

It's because we need Ramen noodles.

We have known that China was hosting these games for 8 years. The previous admin could have stopped our athletes from going had they wished to do so. But I guess the former guy is on the payroll of the CCP also.

The short answer is that Red China is liberal, so they can do no wrong.

This is why Hitler took a lot of heat for Auschwitz (as he deserved), but liberal idol Uncle Joe Stalin didn't get any blowback for the Gulag Archipelago.

Libs didn't recognize Adolf as one of their own.

 

[Truth2Know]

I'm boycotting them.

The previous admin couldn't have done anything, as they weren't in office during the Olympics.

Brandon is in office, so its his responsiblity.

They could boycotted it like we did in 1980. There is no reason to wait for the last second to do such things. In fact it is better for the athletes if you do it sooner

No, not true.

No, just more extremist hate propganda.

No, in fact China has handled the Covid pandemic in the most appropriate way possible, and has reaped the benefits of their actions.

America's response, or lack of, has nothing to do with the topic here.

Unfortunately, everyone who makes these decisions is on the payroll of the CCP.

Extremist nonsense that I've responded to appropriately and which deserves nothing more!

They couldn't have done that, because Brandon cancelled all of President Trump's orders out of spite.

It would have been pointless for Trump to issue an ex order under the circumstance

It would have shown he was serious about China's human rights violations. But instead he was just like the everyone else

Virtue signaling was never the Trumpster's way.

He was an action taker, and would have cancelled the Olympics this month- IF Red China failed to correct their human rights abuses.

Why cancel the olympics 2 years ago, why not give the Chicoms a chance to change their ways?

 

[Blues Man]

I boycott the Olympics every time they're on.

Who cares if one guy can ski down a mountain faster than another guy?

 

[Staidhup]

Think about your title, the Olympics was created to be a nonpolitical event, where politics and conflicts were set aside to celebrate athletic achievement. Regretfully Mexico City, Munich, Moscow, and LA, systematically destroyed the attempt to unite the world in a peaceful athletic forum.

Because we all know they are not going to.

Quit making excuses for your guy and admit he is no different than Biden in this area

Some things never change. The US should have boycotted the Olympics due to Hitler as well.

But as a recent Left wing CEO said from Silicon Valley, the genocide there means nothing to me, much like the extermination of the Jews meant very little to FDR and his Left wing buddies.

In fact, FDR had a solution to the Jewish question as well. He wanted to thin out the population world wide to diminish their influence within each society.

 

[jwoodie]

They own us.

 

[JoeMoma]

I'm boycotting them.

Me too.

So true.

Maybe most Americans at that time did not know about the monstrous cruelty of the Nazis.

I have read that the New York Times was loath to report certain horrifying accounts, lest it be accused of being anti-German because of the newspaper's Jewish owner.

Too bad that Mr. Jesse Owens participated. But maybe he, like most Americans, did not realize the extent of Nazi inhumanity. People knew that Jewish people were being harassed, but they did not know anything about the unbelievable plan of genocide that was in store.

They have got to be one of the worst government on Earth. They are a prime of example of a totalitarian government. I don't know how they got the winter games. I guess so many goods are now made in China, that they have a lot of influence internationally.
