Four times (in 1928, 1932, 1936, 1948) Town Planning was an Olympic event....

Now, I'm not saying that reintroducing competitive town planning to eat olympics would solve our housing crisis, but I do wonder want impact it would have on the way we plan our towns & cities.... would it, for instance, rescue the conspiracy theories around the 15 minute city, or just make them worse?

Israel has killed in 6 months 3 times more Palestinians than the Russians have in 2 years in Ukraine, 70% of which were women and children.

I see no reason why Russia should be ban from the Paris 2024 Olympics and Israel wouldn't...beside the usual double-standard "get out of any situation creepy as it might" free card.
