No

But I can't pretend it's due to an anti-slavery moral high ground boycott

I don't like soccer and wouldn't have watched it even if it was in Australia or Germany or something. I didn't watch the previous World Cups either

^ Hey now that's completely unfair!

Unfortunately a lot of sporting mega-events are enabled by slave labor.

Like remember the 2012 Rio Olympics? Stadiums were built with slave labor. Same thing happened with prior FIFA World cups too.

Yes, on electronics built with conflict resources while eating food grown with unsustainable agriculture. Because I, the unholy consumer, am the monster and not the exploitative system of capitalism that enables such.

You all are so brave! Not watching is going to do so much to prevent the ills associated with building the infrastructure to host the tournament that have already happened. Keep up the good fight!

Your smartphone comes from Chinese slavery, the clothes in your body are the product of child labor in Bangladesh. You can't fart in the West without indirectly benefiting from slavery.

his response is very valid towards someone who keeps saying you support slavery if you watch the games. he is just showing tc's hypocrisy. the world clearly doesn't work like that.

Yes yes, watching soccer games is totally on the same level of necessity as wearing clothes or having a phone.

the entire US could abstain from the games and no change would happen. No teams boycotted. No players boycotted. Captains wouldnt even wear a one love armband.

People aren't wearing them anyway, because they're afraid of the consequences. What good is a protest if you stop doing it because you aren't allowed to?

Yes, even though I don't even like soccer, I'm gonna watch it anyway, because I think it's 'awesome' and 'hilarious' how people get worked up about this.

Real answer: no, because I'm not actually that pathetic.

Yeup

Its not slavery per se, its just slavery like

I forgot the exact wording he used, something like "Its like slavery"

...admittedly not the first time he talked about it. Did it 8 years ago as well, even mentioning the problems with Qatars summer temps, which is why theyre doing it in late Autumn instead

...not sure why they didnt just pick January or February, but specifically November... but eh.
