Every day? For years now and ongoing.

The fact that people are actively seeking this out and ignoring the thousands of lives lost to setup this atrocity is disheartening at best.

The two things aren’t inextricably connected. You can watch the matches while still being frustrated/disappointed/angry about fifa and Qatar. Plus, not going to a local bar or even watching at home isn’t going to have some significant economic impact or make a difference.

Channel that anger into something more impactful.

Except everyone watching adds to the total viewership which just gives fifa the go ahead to continue being shitty. If this ends up getting massively lower ratings than previous world cups that at least shows that people aren't ok with this.

Is it really so much to give up?

I work in audience measurement. Believe me, it’s not going to make a difference.
