... Because you are one?
I feel like you're trolling. No, didn't go to one game or watch it. Not a soccer fan and I live in Seattle, one of the host cities. Not a single party attended.
I feel like the guys playing with dictators, giving out fake peace prizes and fixing games are the worst.
I'm not... Your username implies you're a soccer fan.
What's a dictator with no money?
I got sick of the game and use my wallet to make decisions. I still think the people corrupting the game are far worse than the fans who love the game.
OK.
To be fair I don't think I've ever willingly watched a football game and I still don't think the fans are worse than the core of the issue.
I know. Most people hate thinking about their impact. Everyone wants a villain to blame because it's easier. Don't get me wrong there are villains for sure, but we enable and participate in the suffering.
Y'all go ahead and downvote.
That's a whole lot of words I didn't say that you put in my mouth. I haven't even watched a single game lol
I was speaking in generalities. Modern living, particularly here in the US, comes at a cost most people willfully ignore or just don't think about. Trumps and Musks don't appear out of thin air. They aren't funded by shadowy cabals, we fund them with our purchases and taxes.
Oh, okay. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
