just spit balling this: perhaps we need to give countries an opportunity to improve their human rights record before allowing them to host a world cup tournament

@curiousgawker Amazing how the narrative is always "if we give them the exact thing they want, they'll obviously improve [dodgy thing] at some unspecified point in the future".

Why would they? You've literally just demonstrated that they can get away with it.

@Spinybadger there's also a global tendency to normalize a lot of human rights abuses under the justification of religion
