Today the #PGA destroyed their legacy of high morals and inclusion that they had been cultivating for over a century. The #NFL will probably be next.

#Decolonization & #AntiCapitalism & #AntiClassism work - all #SocialJustice related efforts - have made me feel differently towards #ProSports - it makes me feel uneasy now. I have always liked many pro sports & used to support them a lot more. I can't reconcile how much players are paid & how much is spent on infrastructure & advertising. When I know ppl are dying from starvation & climate crisis disasters & funds are more needee there than in pockets of pro sports folks.

#Greenwashing isn’t exactly new, and it’s found in many #industries .
While many #sports organisations make declarations about their #greenness , the most scrutinised are those with the highest profiles: #FIFA ’s World Cup and the #Olympics . On #examination , it seems that some of the #claims made by the organisers of recent and upcoming events are #questionable, at least.

"In 1978, an #Argentine #MilitaryJunta that #murdered tens of thousands hosted the World Cup and got a chance to refurbish their image. We talk to a #prisoner who watched the game with her #torturers — a World Cup seen from #hell."

We are now firmly into the “in my ‘time off’ I am at the laptop doing prospecting for potential race team sponsors” season
racing fans would be SHOCKED to know the laptop-hours-to-racing-laps ratio that is the reality of the sport
