    1936 Germany was not the same thing politically as 1980 USSR. By a factor of 30 years not the same thing.

    "Although we should point out that many of the other women represent countries that don't have swimming pools."

    I think short of North Korea getting the games, the US is not boycotting the Olympics ever again. Shit, even if Iran hosted.

    There are already rumblings of a boycott in Paris over Russia/Belarus.

    It's not happening.

    I'm sure McDonald's took a bath in the short term, but I believe that gamifying a nation's fast-food binge during that magical summer hooked an entire generation on its McMenu for life (shortened as it now may be).

    Hey, if every country boycotted the Olympics at least we’d be done with that waste of time and money.

    Too much money now, especially when the veneer of amateurism disappeared decades ago.

    Recall there was a dead heat for the gold in a women's swimming race. Double the food!
