I such at influencing people to do anything but this one time I have to try. I'm not much of a cause person, but this thing. I mean if you have any conscience whatsoever you have to boycott the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Really there's only one issue that should matter which is the appalling slave like conditions that the foreign workers in Qatar are working in (I believe they are mostly Nepalese). 

I mean workers are dying, DYING right now in Qatar. 

Now the pressure seems to be snowballing thanks to recent revealations on bribery and all that so hopefully the pressure reaches the point where Qatar is stripped of its hosting duties and its given to a more deserving country (Australia, USA) so a boycott will ultimately be unneccessary. But everyone needs to do their part, all you need to do is talk about this. That's all it takes. Talk about it at pubs, at message boards, on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, whatever. Word of the mouth is the most powerful tool we have.

You don't have to be a advocate, just talk about how much a World Cup in Qatar will suck.

This is the worlds game, the people's game, don't let yourself be associated with something that is this evil. Those stadiums in Qatar will literally have been built with blood. Don't let your hands get dirty.
