MODERATORS
What a fucking ludicrous question. Jesus Christ.
I like the Olympics as an event, despite the corruption of the Olympic committee and presence of awful dictatorships.
People like football despite FIFA being corrupt as fuck, taking bribes from dictatorships, and being ok with literal slavery.
And yes, I like F1 despite the FIA being just as corrupt.
If you're trying to phrase this as hypocrisy, it isn't. It's possible to like something while also disliking an aspect of it.
Maybe you believe that in order to like F1 you must like the FIA/everything they do, as well as any dictator they pander to, but I think you'd be in the minority with that take.
you are taking a hypocritical position though. As per your claims, you're well aware of FIA and Liberty Media' corruption and money grabbing schemes, but somehow you draw the line at a perfectly innocent event in which McLaren has landed. This is hypocritical
There's zero hypocrisy. I don't understand your argument that there is.
Me: I don't like some of the things the FIA does, they are corrupt as an organisation. I don't like how McLaren welcomed someone like Trump into their garage.
You: HYPOCRISY!!!
There's no hypocrisy. I'm allowed to dislike aspects of a sport I watch, you muppet.
You're being hypocritical when you claim that McLaren had an easy choice in refusing Trump's access when you (as per your claim) know full well how the sport is organized.
I don't think you know why hypocrisy means.
And yeah, McLaren could've easily said no you can't come in our garage.
