Vojthas 947 Posted December 1, 2020 #411 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Lack of opposition is a basic symptom of autocracy. Adding also the personal cult show made during the last IOC Session, it seems we can start talking about the Olympic Reich instead of Committee. mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,477 Posted December 7, 2020 #414 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Oh damn, they’re actually going after Belarus. Lukashenko banned from the Olympic Games. No, financial support outside of that for athletes. Belarus cannot host or bid for IOC events. NearPup 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

heywoodu 13,552 Posted December 11, 2020 #417 Share Posted December 11, 2020 One would presume the exact same treatment (whichever one it will be) goes for protests that have to do with for example the Uyghur or Tibet situations? Protest is protest, after all. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
