Damn right, who is going to sponsor the Olympics then? Show me a multi billion dollar company with worldwide reach, no ethical dilemmas, great conditions for workers and sells something good for our health and well being that has the spare cash to sponsor the Olympics...

I think "Big Kale" might be short a few bucks.

Drinking Coke is always a choice, choose not to if you dont like it.

Nice victim blaming

Or you could, you know, just run it as a regular sport event.

Not everything has to cost billions of dollars and be a global media spectacle.

So by your logic everyone that drinks coke is an unethical shill that wants to fuck over workers worldwide and hates their health. This completely disregards people that don't know that drinking it causes any of those things - I don't see how they're to blame for the propaganda machine that coke's ad department is.

Still if you do know about these things (and you seem to do) I sure hope you're boycotting coke or otherwise you would be complicit in all the fucked up shit they get up to.
