We had the chance to be the shining star and we blew it.

Just read a small article about the 1936 Olympics in Germany. Hot Damn we are proving that history nearly repeats itself.

I hope this time they are moved or countries boycott them entirely.

The agents doing this to the FIFA visitors happened in 1936 prior to the start of the Olympics. Only a few Jewish individuals were allowed to participate.

Not safe for any international event, including the Olympics

It’s not safe for anyone in this country. Ice assaulted a sitting Senator, disabled Veterans, citizens, children, and many more. You could say white athletes have a better chance of being safe, but who’s left to compete?

Eliza, thank you for sharing this information! I agree with you, FIFA should seek an alternate host nation immediately… perhaps Canada so all of us planning on attending may still be able to be enthralled by the matches. At the end of every day, with the onslaught of tyranny and wild ass accusations, I go to bed sad af, and this doesn’t help.
