90 years after the 1936 Olympics in Berlin that were instrumentalised by an authoritarian regime, I will definitely not give a minute of my time or a cent of my money to a world championship from an organisation that invented a peace prize to appease another authoritarian. #BoycottFIFA #FIFAWorldCup2026

for me the line was already crossed with the WorldCup in Katar.

I've completely stopped watching any of it since then and I don't miss it one bit.

But this year FIFA should be shown an actual and real dropoff in viewership, traffic and mentions.

Here's hoping.

@wonshu @jwildeboer To me that line was crossed even before, with the russian world cup. I hated the Putin sportswashing so I didn't watch that one nor the one after that, eventhough my country won the former and came second in the latter. Not watching this one either.
