my unpopular opinion is that they are a waste of time and effort.

    Honestly, the problem with the Olympics right now is the same problem with FIFA. Both organizations are seeking one thing, you might be surprised what it is - profit. Just a while ago, the Olympics organization wants in on the NFT/Crypto craze that has long bypassed them. If that isn’t a sign of where their priorities are, then yes, this opinion would be totally valid.

    However, just like FIFA, the Olympics is totally avoidable.

        The only cool thing about it is how it unites many parts of the world through participants.

        Really wish that was a real thing in other factors. I don’t understand why it takes tragedy or things like the Olympics to unify people.
