We're not sending a political delegation, but the athletes are still going, because it would be humiliating for us to forfeit the Olympics.
This is a cheap virtue signal, a mirror image of every time China accuses the US police of genociding black men.
Whoever wins WW3, their virtue signal will be enshrined in history as a new holocaust. If China wins, America will forever be the continent of murdering black men on an industrial scale. If America wins, China will have genocided the Muslims until the end of time.
Announce it now so the left cheers about a "brave stance" and attempt to improve their dismal approval ratings, but when the time comes, far enough in the future, the NPCs will literally not remember their own headline lies to face their delusions.

Except it wouldn't, would it?
It's the fucking olympics. Nobody gives a rats ass about anyone but athletes. 99.9% of people will not even be aware this 'boycott' even happened.
But if the the US didn't send a team, the WHOLE WORLD would notice. That would be an ACTUAL message to Beijing. This message - this half-measure, is meaningless. All it says to Beijing is that they can keep doing they want, and the US won't do anything that's even the least bit of bother.

Hard disagree.
If China wins blacks will be exterminated and America will become a lesson in how to not fall for the guiles of lesser races.
China does not care in the slightest about the leftist takes on race.
Exactly. When China brings up America's history, it's only to stir up shit here, not because they have any moral authority on human rights.
They care that it makes their enemies look bad, which is why they promote and fund race issues in the west.

Exactly. Cheap, pathetic virtue-signal.
