Maybe on some level, even in their internal rhetoric, the olympics as a group really believes that they’re bringing some prosperity to these places.

Even as they fill their bank accounts with more and more bribe money.

Because enough is never enough, y’know?

The 2016 Olympics are shaping up to be quite the trainwreck…

Let’s not forget that the major water events will be happening in actual sewage.

I kind of guessed that the Brazilian police who were on strike were making ambiguous suggestions…
