The concern-trolling over it was. Abuse continues to be rampant in professional (and amateur) athletics. Reporting tends to either fixate on the Bad Countries Cheating or explode into a “Last year’s players cheated! This won’t happen again!” moral panic after too many high profile athletes start succumbing to symptoms of chronic misuse.
Trans-athletes (and maliciously accused cis-athletes) get swept up in both. You’re either “cheating” by having the wrong set of chromosomes or you’re accused of cheating because you don’t look Trad enough.
I know that they found Lance Armstrong was cheating simply because everyone else in the Tour De France was too and they knew it wasn’t possible for him to have won fairly if they cheated and still lost. So they mass-reported him for dosing, testing him to “prove” he wasn’t, and found he was.
I hate people with no self-awareness. Like if you’re cheating too, don’t say shit.

I believe he was able to disguise some of his performance enhancement behind his chemotherapy, which is why he so drastically improved after coming back from testicular cancer.

No point in staying silent if you still lose. Time to throw the front-runner under the bus and make way for the rest of the cheats.
