The Olympics have always been a crucial component of nationalism, patriotism, and soft power on the global stage, first with the US competing against the USSR and now with the US competing against China and Russia. US Olympic success stems from hard work, fair selection, the world’s best feeder system, and an American spirit of patriotism and perseverance. The US should not allow athletes to disrespect the flag, and DEI should not play any role in selecting athletes, including at the high school and university levels. Furthermore, the emasculation of boys, the increased prevalence of online activities, the lack of support for youth sports, and the widespread use of pharmaceutical drugs to decrease testosterone and energy levels in children are weakening the nation.
