lol I didn’t even think of this. Personally, I think that hosting the Olympics is a really fucking stupid thing for a city to do, so I’m just gonna sit back and laugh.
And yes, I’m American.
So much freedom, it makes me sick
I wish I could at least be like Ed and too stupid to understand how shitty it is here.
At the end of the movie, the hyenas eat the fallen king.
Unfortunately, that's how it got this way. Too many Eds.
That was my belief for quite a while. There's certainly no shortage of stupidity, but the real problem is that people do understand the evil shit they vote for, and they fucking love it.
Look at the Trump admin: he didn't trick us into voting for him by giving some 'on paper' bs about why the things he does is somehow good; he just got on stage and started shitting on veterans, disabled people, women, immigrants, etc. The majority of voters looked at that and said "YUP! THAT'S MY GUY!!"
We're (collectively) just fucking evil. Idk if there's a fix for that.
The thing is, they don't truly understand the consequences. Otherwise c/leopardsatemyface wouldn't be a thing.
They believe that they are free from consequence because they keep being told that, and by the odds they're unlikely to face major direct consequences of their choices. And when they do, often it gets blamed on "the other side" instead of the people they choose to represent them.
It's not about them being too stupid to understand, or too evil to want better, it's about an unwillingness to think about the consequences of their actions.

Define interesting
The US is going to take gold in every event. Mostly because other countries won't be allowed to compete or won't want to.
I've always believed that all Olympic countries take part in some kind of enhanced performance drug program.
The poor countries try it and they are easily identified and disqualified
The mid tier countries do it cautiously and sometimes get away with it
The rich countries like the US do it all the time but they are so sophisticated that they can't be caught.
Rich countries have highly developed sports infrastructures that allow better detection of talents and training the talents in the best possible conditions. That is probably already enough to explain the difference in results. No need to look for some drug conspiracy. If your city doesn't have the money to build a swimming pool, you'll never have swimming champions from there.
Russia, a powerhouse, had a ridiculously complex scam going and even they were caught.
They aren't rich in the normal sense, but they are powerful and secretive, so I think they provide a valid counterexample.
Does it go on? I'd believe constantly. Does it get found out? Every time, albeit there's always a short window of success. Do more powerful nations have more success at cheating? Yeah, since the smaller countries can't cheat as well.
But not a conspiracy, just correlation, I think.
Gold medals won by other countries are illegal medals!
Stop the (medal) count!
