The United States says it will not send government officials to the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, after China pledged unspecified "countermeasures" against any such diplomatic boycott.
Last month, US President Joe Biden said he was considering such a diplomatic boycott amid criticism of China's human rights record, including what Washington says is genocide against minority Muslims in its western region of Xinjiang.

Just threatening to take "countermeasures" to any country that boycott's is enough for me to just boycott the Bejing Olympics. If you start threatening like it doesn't help people then start to dig their heels in and stick to their word...
Personally while the CCP are in power they should have never got the rights to host either the summer or winter Olympics after the way the treat other countries, and especially the way they treating the Uyghurs and slowly performing genocide on them. CCP can get fucked.
