my unpopular opinion is that they are a waste of time and effort.

    Hmm, an interesting take. The Olympics, being an international multinational event, being in a singular location could cause political tension between countries. It would have to be on neutral land for such a thing to work. Maybe some of that unclaimed land In Africa?

    Edit: messed up the formatting by accident.

      That would mean a private company becoming the owner of land that isn’t part of a country, would be kind of weird wouldn’t it?

      They’re already registered in Switzerland so let them deal with it, countries should refuse to host them considering the cost and the fact that there’s no return on investment in the end.
