As a sports fan with no football to watch I normally watch the Olympics but i have zero interest this time. I have flipped through a couple of times but seeing empty stands and listening to some of the people they have announcing has ruined the expereince, at least for me.

I am a huge Olympics fan (f the IOC, though), and have always followed them. I have not seen one event this time and do not plan on it. China has no business hosting them.

I watched some of the men’s half-pipe and downhill ski coverage last night but turned it off when they had Lindsey Vonn speaking (what the heck did Eldrick see in her ?)

China Winter Olympics: Athletes complain about isolation 'horror'

Dozens of athletes confined to Chinese isolation hotels after testing positive for Covid have laid bare their misery - with inedible food, unhygienic conditions, and no room for exercise.

Agreed 1000%.

I find it funny that we have a Winter Olympics in a place that has no snow for the skiing events. Once they pan off the ski runs it’s all brown hills. The ski jump was built next to a nuclear power plant. The CCP has had a major fail on these games and that is the best thing that could have happened.

What a waste of water. They used 49 million gallons of water for one of the ski runs making snow. 49 million gallons. I would say that is being wasteful of natural resources. But “that’s different”.

Hosting the Olympics sucks and the IOC is a pain the ass. Beijing got it by default

 

[soonerinlOUisiana]

Not watching either, but not really because of China. Just completely disinterested. Probably would still pass even if they were being hosted by a free country not governed by tyrants.

As a fan of the Olympics, I also have not watched one event so far of these Winter Olympics. Has nothing to do with politics though, just haven't been that interested for some reason.

Strange I must say because I have always watched the Olympics in the past.

I do feel for the athletes- most of them just trying to live a dream- very sad
