    It is possible to cheer the athlete and 👻🖕 the 🇺🇲 and the anthem. I know that’s what I’ll be doing.

    PS: I strongly encourage all to 🖕"FUCK YOU!!" 🖕 any cünts that start chanting “USA USA USA”. I know I will.

    if doing the thing is a thing you sign up to do through your own free will - you should be reminded of the shit you support at every moment of every day. from military to police to ski jumpers … do it as part of “team america” and you’re a piece of shit.

    It’s not that it’s unfair, it’s the job. Representing your country in the Olympics is participating in a certain amount of propaganda. It comes with the territory. They know that going in. The whole thing is literally propaganda. That’s what all those parades and flag wavings and cushy puff piece interviews are about. They signed up for this.
