Quote:Similarly, sports in America and the accompanying culture of sports fanaticism plays people’s minds and continuously demands their focused emotional attention inning by inning, play by play. Sports fans respond to the constant sensational cycles of competition between individuals and/or teams, and the unavoidable emotional and psychological result of winning or losing.
Likewise, sports and the addiction to sports, like many other addictions, is a distraction diverting the attention of the participants from reality to the reality of the game and the emotional and psychological addictive benefits it guarantees. As the musical chair participants predictably walk in one direction careful not to miss a second or lose attention for fear of losing the game, so also do sports fans figuratively march in one direction; going along with the waves of storylines, latest scores and memes that the sports leagues throw at them on a daily, even hourly or minute-by-minute basis, careful not to miss a score, a game, or a big story.
I am no conspiracy theorist in the slightest, but funny how Hitler attached physical attributes, to national sports too.
The Olympics are a joke now. It is all sold as a way of bonding globally but it is nothing but a way for global corporations to fleece the common populations.
There was a documentary out a couple years ago showing all the WORLDWIDE venues that basically got abandon after and rotted.
Global corporations, friend and foe alike, and for anyone to stupidly claim that the private sector does not exist in closed states, is FUCKING ABSURD.
Global corporations have learned to manipulate humans and pit them against each other. Conflict is profitable and sports is metaphor for conflict.
