Really - this is the Olympics to boycott?

Not Russia - should be pretty obvious
Not Brazil - that took place after Brazil's economy collapsed and the country was spending billions on the games while cutting social programs for their people
Not Korea - which was basically "co-hosted" by North Korea and a propaganda masterpiece for them.
Not Japan - which was hosted in the middle of a global pandemic before the host country was vaccinated.

The Olympics are the only sporting event worth watching - play politics with them if you like but I'll be enjoying the events.

If you don't like China you should want them to host every Olympic games - they are a massive money pit for the host country.
