Just enjoy sports as is.

Do we really need to pull Crime and Punishment from the shelves like vodka?

So when people talk about politics, they get criticized. When they don't, they get criticized. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I really hope that when they invade Taiwan, other countries can unite to condemn them as we are doing now... probably impossible though as many countries are heavily dependent on China...

Preventing war and promoting peace is pretty much he whole point of the Olympics. If Beijing doesn't share those values, they shouldn't host the Olympics.

Why is the paralympic committee acting surprised that the authoritarians are being authoritarian? How could you expect China to do anything other than be China?

This is why they should have never been given the Olympics, it was a Faustian deal. The Paralympic committee expressing surprise now is fooling no one.
