Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif Is Not a Trans Athlete

Fediverse vs [email protected]English • 3 months ago

One controversy coming out of the 2024 Paris Olympics concerned a fight between Algerian boxer Imane Khelif and Italian boxer Angela Carini.

Bottom Line

The only purported evidence for the claim that Khelif is trans comes from an undisclosed test performed by an allegedly corrupt sports governing body that may have shown she has a DSD condition. The IOC has said Khelif meets its requirements for participation, with Adams, the IOC spokesman, specifically clarifying, “This is not a transgender issue.”

Because Khelif is not transgender, claims attempting to make her victory against Carini an issue about transgender rights or “woke” politics are without basis.

IF YOU HAVE A VAGINA YOU’RE A WOMAN! It would be REALLY WEIRD if Republicans DIDN’T agree with that Statement anymore considering all the Legislation regarding Youth Genitalia they’ve been Passing!

  Republicans are just so obsessed with people’s genitalia, it’s honestly quite weird.

Fediverse vs [email protected]

[email protected]

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]

Pointing out, debunking, and spreading awareness about state- and company-sponsored astroturfing on Lemmy and elsewhere. This includes social media manipulation, propaganda, and disinformation campaigns, among others.

Propaganda and disinformation are a big problem on the internet, and the Fediverse is no exception.

What’s the difference between misinformation and disinformation? The inadvertent spread of false information is misinformation. Disinformation is the intentional spread of falsehoods.

By equipping yourself with knowledge of current disinformation campaigns by state actors, corporations and their cheerleaders, you will be better able to identify, report and (hopefully) remove content matching known disinformation campaigns.

Community rules

Same as instance rules, plus:

No disinformation
Posts must be relevant to the topic of astroturfing, propaganda and/or disinformation
