Big difference there is we didn’t go into those countries on our own.

No. But mainly due to doping. They’ve proven over and over that they cannot and will not run a legitimate testing program.
Frankly the Olympics are more fun with an evil empire to cheer against.
Sure, there is China but I’m not watching table tennis, badminton, and air rifle just to cheer against them.
There’s at least some overlap with Russia

Yes, unequivocally. At least on the basis of Ukraine. The doping situation is different.
But political banishments and boycotts at the Olympics are really fricking stupid.

North Korea keeps their entire populace imprisoned and they got to compete.

Having a little beef between competitors makes the events more interesting anyway.
