How many PGA golfers lined up to join LIV golf sponsored by the Saudi regime? Last year this was Phil Mickelson simping for the Saudi government saying: “I certainly do not condone human rights violations. And addressing what happened to Jamal Khashoggi is awful. But I have seen the good that game of golf has done throughout history. And I really believe that LIV can be good for the game of golf as well.’’
Seeing footballers who’ve spent the last decade preaching to their domestic fans about progressive politics bugger of to Saudi Arabia as soon as the money was better was hilarious. There’s montage that Al Ettifaq put out of Henderson when they brought him, where they went as far as censoring the LGBT armband he’s worn in the Premier League and internationals.
An idiot only getting the job because of Daddy’s merits, and it making you realize it really is a club for the wealthy to fuck around in.
And so far what has been our decision from this nightmare?
“Yeah the children of the oligarchs do suck, best to just stick to the ancient old fuckers, cause the original is best!”
The USA is the most murderous and destructive regime on the planet. Why would someone take issue with a golfer playing in LIV and not the PGA? Makes no sense to me. It’s really weird how this Khashoggi thing gets so much press.
Okay but a little more direct doesn’t really justify the single-mindedness in this story. The PGA wouldn’t be what it is without government support in one way or another, but even if it was 100% grass roots bootstrapped, the vast majority, if not all of these golfers support the USA. It’s just jaw dropping hypocrisy.

Money trumps morals.
Same with soccer

Now watch this drive
Fuck this comment is a throwback.
Any Gen Z know what this means?
Millennial/Gen Z depending on definition here, I did not.
And after watching it I’m still not convinced it wasn’t an impersonator sketch.
Imagine how we felt when it happened in real time.
Now watch this drive.

And for some reason you have no issue with people participating in the PGA? How does this make sense in your mind?
As a guy with zero clue on golf…can you illustrate the rest?
The USA is the most murderous and destructive regime on the planet. Why would someone take issue with a golfer playing in LIV and not the PGA? Makes no sense to me. It’s really weird how this Khashoggi thing gets so much press.
I mean… checking wikipedia LIV is literally funded and founded by the Arabia Saudí government, like they literally created it.
PGA as far as I can see… isn’t exactly the same situation.
So the connection would a little bit more direct on the LIV case.
Okay but a little more direct doesn’t really justify the single-mindedness in this story.

It’s really not; you’re doing some serious stretches here to try and turn this around into your anti-US narrative.
