2022-11-22T13:25:22.280Z

If the humiliation of homosexuals, the subjugation of women, the exploitation of the poor, trade with dictatorships, laundered money and the corruption of sports bother us so much, we have four years to dedicate ourselves to remedying it.

From its origin, the word boycott warns its users.

It was none other than the last name of Captain Charles Cunningham Boycott, an Irish administrator who met with rejection and blockade from taxpayers.

So it is not uncommon to think that all boycotts turn against oneself, as happened to the eponymous boycott, because we live in a world that forces people to accept contradiction at every moment.

Everyone who wants to boycott the World Cup in Qatar is doing it for the right reasons.

The miseries of which that country is accused are true.

But they wasted the previous years to dodge their financial funds or their imported gas.

And, if we refer to the soccer fan, who really enjoys a World Cup, he already comes trained from home.

Because at some point his own club will have been in the hands of a thief,

a jeta or a family composed of both.

And yet his faithfulness blessed everything.

And the emigrants busted to serve as their workforce may have ended up in Qatar because our fences and beatings were even more of a deterrent.

It has been explained by Infantino, the head of FIFA;

let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

And while we are considering whether to throw the stone and, of course, hide our hand, he has already taken the money, has sealed off corruption and is waiting for us to resolve our contradictions in the tax haven of his conscience.

let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

There are those who will see the World Cup out of the corner of their eye.

There are those who will boycott it as soon as they eliminate Spain, as we do with Wimbledon as soon as they eliminate Nadal.

There are those who will see it wrapped in the rainbow flag.

There are those who will donate their eyes to science so as not to see it.

And there are those who will look at him from the other side of a cafeteria window, because he doesn't even have enough to pay for a cortado.

We cannot boycott the World Cup in Qatar because we had previously boycotted the presence in the Russian championship, so if we ignore it now, Putin will not suffer as much as we would like.

We would boycott our boycott.

It is the World Cup of farewell to that generation of two who have been Messi and Cristiano.

It is the World Cup of a youthful and renewed Spain, with Ansu Fati and Nico Williams as standard bearers.

It is a World Cup that is played in November,

Like it or not, when the game starts the idea ends.

Those who are not interested in football have a golden opportunity, because instead of looking like a pedant every time he assures that he does not follow him, now he will be able to boast of a morality that others lack.

Walking down the street during matches in Spain is rewarding, you will be greeted by others who are just as honest and ethical.

It is already known that during these broadcasts crimes drop and ERs are left empty for Ayuso to enjoy.

And once the World Cup is over, if the humiliation of homosexuals, the subjugation of women, the exploitation of the poor, trade with dictatorships, laundered money and the corruption of professional sports bother us so much, we have four years to dedicate ourselves to remedying it. .

Four years to insist that it is necessary to fight against these affronts.
