I'd guess age plays a part but also, between the fall of the Soviet Union (1989) and the trumpism era (2016-present), there was a time when we could actually have Olympics where no one mentioned politics. Betweeen Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union there were a lot of years where politics overwhelmed the Olympics, but I was born in 1975 so my actual perception of politics in sport begins basically around the fall of Soviet politics and the end of the Cold War. I watched the Olympics in 84 and 88 but I have no direct recollection of how tense the Soviet presence was.

But, born/cognizant of the Olympics between 92 and 2016? Yeah, things were pretty damn quiet and non-political for a long time, weren't they.

Damn quiet and non-political? How about in '96? 2008? 2012? 2014!?

give me some citations, I will gladly eat my hat if I'm not remembering A Thing That Happened In 1996. It's Saturday and I'm drunk. I will legit backtrack and apologize if I don't remember a thing from when I was 25 and didn't even watch tv.

Not ayrt and I only very vaguely remember it because I was 6 but there was a domestic terrorism bombing in 1996.

OP says these are the first Olympics they have been aware of the politics of the athletes. Meaning they missed everything that happened two years ago, and two years before that, and two years before that…

Basically, your rose tinted glasses about the 90s and 2000s is irrelevant.

....ok take that up with OP and not me, ffs.

Uh, your comment was basically justifying the secret because apparently things like both games in the 90s having terrorist attacks and all of the 2000s didn’t happen. If you want to limit it to just the athletes, all through the 2000s we’ve had American athletes either condemning or venerating the president at the time. The Olympics have always had a high level of political fuckery.
