I'm not sure what to say at this point. You live in your own world. Best of luck to you.

Then why do you not give up your weekends to go protest outside of the Qatar embassy? Again, my point is that it is unfair of you to put that expectation on them, when it is not being applied to us all.
With regards to your opinion that the world cup does not matter to the players, I'm sorry- but you are just wrong. Participating in and possibility winning a world cup is a major objective/achievement for all players. It blows my mind that you are willing to die on this hill, and if you choose too, there is nothing else I can say to convince you. You are living in your own world.

Why does them adding value matter? The point is you are expecting someone to make a significant sacrifice to address a social issue they had no part in creating, yet you are unwilling to make similar (even smaller) sacrifices to address the same issue.
Also, if you are going to take the stance that playing in the world cup is not a big deal for the players, I feel like you are not debating in good faith. So best of luck to you. I truly hope you examine your stance on this topic and change your point of view, but as it is now, I feel you are not willing to even entertain changing your opinion.

Why can't I judge you for not spending your weekends protesting outside of the Qatar embassy? You had as much to do with any injustice as the players did. Why should their sacrifice be required but yours not?
If your stance is that missing your shot at playing in the world cup is not a big deal, then you have never strived to be the best at anything. It is a big deal for them, much bigger than you giving up your weekends... yet you don't do it and ask them give up something much bigger.

Okay, but that logic can be used for anyone in the world. Why have not you or I done anything to clean it up? Why are we not dedicating our lives to fighting for equality? Why is it fair to ask them to sacrifice their careers and efforts they put into their sport while we sacrifice nothing?

It is a bit silly to blame the players, no?

Cosmology and astronomy are the only field of science where I feel that the numbers are just made up, and the measurements don't matter.
