I have more free time to read books right now because of all the soccer matches I’m not watching. I’m boycotting the FIFA World Cup 2026. I see no meaning in supporting an event that is being hosted by a country that is terrorizing its own citizens, facilitating genocide in Gaza, bombing schoolchildren in Iran, kidnapping the president of Venezuela, starving people in Cuba, bullying dozens of countries into austerity, sorry, I’ll stop here for now with this 100+ item list. I also see nothing good coming from supporting an organization that gave the leader of said country, a known rapist who is financially profiting from all of this caused suffering, a Peace Prize for those actions. Nor do I wish to watch a propaganda event that’s filled with exploitation, AI use and ICE activity, all while the attending rich get richer. Bread and circuses, sure, except most can barely afford bread and the circus is just a livestream of corruption. No thanks. With that said, onto the main topic of this…
