It's crazy to me that campaigns like this, as well as the Prem banning betting sponsors on shirts soon, are so prevalent in football but in the US legal sports betting is just getting off the ground. It's been proven to be more detrimental than good for society in the UK but there's no discourse around it in the US.

I hate how Reddit thinks about this. Like oh something’s bad for overall society so let’s ban everyone from it. Why don’t we ban alcohol. Make the speed limit 10 everywhere. Ban McDonald’s. Cultural authoritarianism is surprisingly popular around here.
