I think you need to read up on what recognition of Taiwan or the PRC really means and why some countries still recognize Taiwan over the PRC

The U.S. doesn’t really give a shit about it. Remember they have their own weird One China policy in which they technically only deal with mainland China and not Taiwan. Very few countries recognize Taiwan to be the real China still.

I think the illegal thing was him having a gun in a state where he wasn’t licensed lol. The nba also hates the thug player image they’ve been trying to shake for years now

I don’t think anybody finds the smell appealing so to say. The good taste outweighs the bad smell. And once you acquire a taste for it the smell might actually make your mouth water a bit.

I think they are talking about the sandwiches themselves. Around 10 years ago the roast beef sandwiches were 5 for 5 now it’s like $6 for 1 if you don’t have a coupon.

I guess I fail to see the comparison between Qatar 2022 and England 1966. Entirely different is my point.

The word you are looking for is sport-washing and that is exactly what Qatar is doing here. I’d argue Qatar has very little culture in the first place. A city- state built on oil reserves. In 3 months, after the World Cup is over, all that people will remember it’s that they hosted a World Cup and that’s all that matters to them despite the money spent and the lives lost.

Oh stop. By your logic only countries like Mongolia or Tuvalu deserve to host the World Cup. There is a line that has to be crossed and perhaps using slaves is it.
