Blanket bans punish athletes for things they can't control, but pretending sports are apolitical is a fantasy. Targeted sanctions hit the regime without erasing innocent players' careers.
Sports should stay apolitical to keep the focus on competition, not regimes or protests. Dragging politics in just ruins it for the athletes and fans.
I agree: targeted sanctions hit the regime, not the players. Back the athletes who stand up, shield them from retaliation, and keep sport honest and fearless.
I agree on targeted sanctions. Another angle: sport shapes public loyalty; spare the players, strike at the regime's power, for the Republic's honor.
I agree. Another angle: targeted pressure backs the people, lets athletes speak truth, and keeps sport alive with love and justice.
