How is anyone still surprised at any major sports associations lack of morals? We had a football world cup in fucking Qatar and people still went and got tickets and all. Boycott it all, just a matter of time when your favorite popular sport does some shit like that.

decolonize sport, too. stop putting your love of sports into the professional leagues and look more into events you can participate in. go play basketball on a local outdoor court. find a rec soccer league. invite some friends to the park to play kickball. learn how to skateboard. participate in a 5k race. there's so much out there for us to love and enjoy that doesn't require all this blood money

Does anyone think they don’t know that?

People need to stop putting faith in corporations to stand up for you. They are complicit in the fascism, and they will profit just as well, if not better, without democracy and human rights, they are not your safeguard against it.

Capitalists will always rally behind fascist leaders
