adopting the worldview of “if you have literally any inherent advantage over the average competitor you should be disqualified because it’s just not fair” with regards to a friendly entertainment-first competition that is fundamentally about showing the peak of human athletics. because of woke pronouns

chuds will literally say that this description with a straight face is exactly what communism represents and then throw a tantrum the second someone who is not a cishet WASP kicks their shit in. what happened to your little haplogroups and calipers big dawg you’re supposed to be taking this shit on the chin oh wait it’s literally just racial main character syndrome cool cool

    Is the Italian boxer actively fanning the flames? The only things I saw were basically that she was upset about losing, but it seemed like all the hatred was coming from conservative talking heads, not from her.

      I’ll be entirely honest, I don’t know. The waters are muddy at the moment and I didn’t see that particular match

      To my understanding the Italian boxer left the field pretty steamed and refused to even acknowledge her opponent or shake hands, which could be frustration on her part or could be a legitimate snub, it’s impossible to know, and the media shoving cameras and microphones into her face seconds later didn’t help either

      It is admittedly poor wording on my part, and I’ll fix that
