Me neither, IC.
Good man. You have a soul.
LOL If you had made some prior enquiries, then you might find that the reason "harbal" is not watching is for some OTHER reason than the one that you may be assuming here.

You know precisely what Qater has done in regard to the migrant workers there. But you choose to do nothing about it.
Just wait. The reckoning is not now. And it's a good thing for everyone it isn't yet.
WHY?

And HOW do you KNOW it is NOT 'now'?
Immanuel Can wrote: Tue Nov 22, 2022 4:49 pm But...

Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming?" ...But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly people....with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not willing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be discovered.
(2 Pet. 3:3-10)
And those of 'you' who 'judge' "others" like 'you' are a God, EXACTLY like how "immanuel can" does, WILL BE JUDGED the most on judgement day.

And there you go.

I start a light hearted fun thread on a filopastry forum and it gets turned into an over baked thread where the goodness inside is turned to shite.

Hey, so long as he's not giving money to the murderers, either through his active participation or his passive absorbing of their advertising, from which they derive their profits, I'm fine. I'm not concerned why he opts out.

Interesting, though, that others, knowing full well what Qatar has done, are opting in. It's remarkable how human nature doesn't change, though...let there be any attrocity, no matter how great, and the vast majority will rationalize going along with it. We are not nearly so far from the days of death camps and holocausts as we think we are, and maybe we are not the upright moral advocates of human rights we so often tell ourselves we are.

I guess that makes me 'one of the others' then. (btw, I don't watch adverts if that helps).

We are just around the corner from death camps. I bet your house is full of products manufactured in China.

The badge of the England team is usually three Lions. After saying they were going to wear "One Love" armbands in Qatar they wimped out and did not because FIFA told them not to.

FIFA were going to give anyone that wore the armband a yellow card! Ergo, time to get rid of FIFA.

If the players had defied them, FIFA would have had to back down.
