It’s been said before and worth saying again. Fuck the IOC, and fuck the Olympics. I love that amateur athletes get to shine, but the overt corporatism and lack of respect for local communities makes it quite counter-productive.

When an athletic event is “brought to you by Coca Cola,” I mean, who are we even trying to fool?

Remember folks, Coca Cola is good, because

  1. Pro-diabetes = not politics, whereas
  2. Anti-genocide = politics.

Logic brought to you by the wealthy parasites destroying everything you hold dear.
