โ€œWe would never do thatโ€ is pointed and hits hard (because someone else clearly did!)

Did any *countries* boycott? I donโ€™t think they did. Whereas with the Eurovision, several participant countries are boycotting.

Thatโ€™s a more advanced level of boycott. Itโ€™s at state level and arguably happening BECAUSE of previous boycotts by individuals & local teams that you imply donโ€™t work.

Was there a boycott? By whom? Donโ€™t remember that?

Itโ€™s so true. (And it applies to Trumpian politics too!)

No. More a general comment about how you can avoid things you like if the ethics of the situation (the organisationโ€™s actions or the kind of participants it allows) conflict with your own ethics.

06.12.2025 15:19 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yes. Having ethics is hard work. ๐Ÿ˜‚ But FIFA (in particular) has been corrupt and corruptible for decades without any accountability. Thatโ€™s on the supporters.

Haha. Even if itโ€™s easy itโ€™s still a boycott.

You donโ€™t have to like it to boycott it. ๐Ÿ˜œ

Look guys, if the gays can boycott the Eurovision, the very very very least you can do is boycott FIFA

Bulldozed corpses and unmarked graves, CNN investigates the fate of Gazaโ€™s missing aid seekers | CNN Ammar Wadi knew he was risking his life when he set out to get a bag of flour for his family from an aid truck near the Zikim crossing into Gaza in June.

CNN are reporting on the horrific treatment of dead Palestinian bodies by the Israeli military and describe actions, like using bulldozers to create mass graves, turning the dead into the missing, that can be interpreted as war crimes.

Trump Administration Will No Longer Commemorate World AIDS Day

Every year since 1988, the United States has recognized World AIDS Day โ€” until now.

Why not? Maybe because the Trump administration doesnโ€™t want to acknowledge that its foreign aid cuts led to nearly 150,000 deaths from AIDS, according to Boston University researchers.

Shameful.

This is exactly the point that must be clearly made if any name change happens. Otherwise, itโ€™s likely to create a stupid media storm, with Ireland getting smeared, and no effective political action is made.

Alexander Skarsgard and Harry Melling are really good in this movie. It was kinda gas to be sitting in a cinema with the Dublin Leather scene watching it.
