      Sweet. All the astronauts working for NASA should probably quit too.

        …what?

        But what the fuck ever, dude. If present circumstances DON’T justify radical responses, then I see no point continuing this thread.

        Just…what the fuck.

          It’s called empathy my dude. Put yourself in the shoes of an athlete who has maybe one chance in a lifetime to perform on a global stage what they’ve been training their whole life for. They’re not harming anyone by competing, and their withdrawal from the event would accomplish absolutely nothing.
