IOC President Thomas Bach said the “hate speech” directed at boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting at the Paris Olympics is “totally unacceptable.”
“We will not take part in a politically motivated … cultural war,” Bach said at a news briefing Saturday at the midway point of the Paris Games, where he wanted to draw a line under days of global scrutiny about the female boxers’ gender.
not true. she lost when she wasnt even 20. so yeah when she was a kid grown women had a chance. so fair. i now fully understand your point: it is a reflex and you can not be rational.
If you’re accusing other people of irrationality, maybe stick to the facts. Her last loss on her amateur boxing record was 2 years ago, when she was 23. Here’s a tweet by Amy Broadhurst who beat her then: https://x.com/amybroadhurst12/status/1818687351582789680
She seems pretty clear that she thinks Khelif is a good boxer but certainly not so absurdly strong that she’s unbeatable no?
lol. did you read it? she said it is not cheating, she was born this way. to me this implies that also the winners think imane should not box. they even emphasized cheating. also you have no idea how boxing works, right? point system and so on? get lost.
Are you dense? She literally says
Clearly indicating that she thinks there’s no danger or that there’s an obvious advantage that Khelif has that others don’t have. She emphasized cheating because that’s what morons are accusing Khelif of.
If she thought Khelif shouldn’t box she would have said so. She explicitly didn’t.
I think you need to work on your reading comprehension.
