This is one of the most intensely "America is the only place in the world that matters" statements I have ever read.
Are you even aware that your senile fascist pedophile president has threatened to invade, annex, or economically attack just about every single one of your neighbours and allies?
ICE could be dismantled today, completely and utterly erased, deleted with extreme prejudice, and it would not address a single one of the reasons why the rest of the world hates you.
I get that for you the fascist paramilitary is the most pressing issue, and indeed it may well come to a point where taking on ICE - literally - is a necessary precursor to solving those other problems. You have every right to focus on that problem first and foremost.
But it's incredibly telling that you think the rest of the world should judge your athletes solely on how they feel about ICE, and not, say, their opinion on your country committing numerous war crimes, or aiding and abetting a genocide, or withdrawing life saving aid programs, or pulling out of climate treaties, or using your economic power to block green shipping laws and corporate minimum tax agreements, or starting a senseless trade war with the entire planet, or trying to annex neighbouring territories, or violating your neighbours sovereignty, or any of the other things that I'm forgetting here because it's become impossible to even keep track of all the disgusting shit that America has done recently.
