I disagree with that sentiment. Sport should never be political. In 16 years, countries from the West might get excluded when China takes over as the next world power nation. I bet you wouldn’t like that, would you?
Besides, sports can be the only necessary link between countries during such times. Additionally, if Russia participated, the broadcasting would have been drastically different and the opinion of the population would be too.
It does no direct harm inviting the athletes to compete so we should just let them.
What Takes you to assume, that russia would Broadcast the olympics at all (or uncensored) even when russian athletes would be competing.
In a ideal world, yes, politics should Not Play any part in Sports, nor in sciences. Hence it is, as we are not living in that world, so we would have to adjust accordingly.
Fucking cry. Maybe don’t invade your neighbors you fucking cunts.
Don’t you dare insulting their traditions, you monster! 😭
Some how I automatically read this in Greta Thungerg’s voice.
How dare you!
Haha, I heard her while writing. But I’m not sure she’d be behind the statement.
Should Israel be allowed to compete?
No, I don’t think so.

russia is banned because their athletes keep being caught for taking performance enhancing drugs.
But. Sport has always been political. All this fluff about the beauty of sports is just for show. It’s all about soft power.

Not at all a response to my argument. They might or might not. My point is that sports shouldn’t be political.
Well, Sure, my Point is also still valid everything is political in this reality we live in
