Time for an international boycott. If any Russian federation athlete is allowed to compete I will not watch the Olympics.

If big business withholds its sponsorship of the Olympic Games (IOC!), it will be interesting to see how quickly the IOC’s stance on letting Russian and Belarusian athletes participate changes!!!

This is my plan. Tell everyone to not watch. It won't be on any tv near me including restaurants. If it's on it will be turn it off or I'm out. Obviously I will not be in any multi TV bars, and I'm okay with that

Better yet target the sponsors. If enough people get involved and the likes of Coke are getting bad press they will pretty quickly persuade the IOC to change.
