For me, it's the absolute hypocrisy of these events which turn me off. Slogan of the winter Olympics is "together for a shared future". Everyone is laughing and clapping and keeping up a facade. Meanwhile, millions in China are systematically getting physically and psychologically molested in concentration camps because they had a different ideology or religion (Xinjiang internment camps). Everyone complies with China's rules and authoritarian regime. Nobody makes a statement. IOC is silent. That future is not so shared as people make it out to be.
