"An Olympic-sized moral panic: Integrity of women’s sports is the new ethics in gaming journalism" - this about sums up the "liberal" response to the trannies in Paris thing... I studied moral panics as part of my degree. This "journalist' doesn't even really know what that term means... (archive.is)

The MAGA Right has gone all in harassing gold medalist Imane Khelif, a woman boxer who competed in the Olympics for Algeria, and spreading disinformation about her because they’d decided she was Transgender. She isn’t, but why would they ever let the truth stop them?

"She" literally has XY chromosomes. It was confirmed by the IBF (or whatever it's called) because they actually tested and banned the dude from competing against women.

You've been lied to again and now you're going around talking shit to people who are telling the truth. All while acting like a smug cunt.

Imane Khelif was banned from the 2023 Women's World Boxing Championship for being male.

Same with the other male who ''won'' gold in the other olympics women's weight class boxing category : Banned for being male at the Women's World Boxing Championship.

It really is similar to GamerGate : the media is fucking lying about everything again.

My understanding is the IBF says they ran test that says she has XY chromosomes. News and other orgs says that's not true the test didn't show that. People don't believe in news and other orgs. Other people don't believe either side.

Those people say - hey, how about just do a chromosome test?

The answer they got is no, and you're a bigot. "But golly geez whiz we have no idea why are bigots mad."

It’s always kinda funny how apparently the right are “masters of misinformation and manipulation” and yet they’ll do shit like this and purposefully push a false narrative because it agrees with them. How can anyone be so comfortable blatantly fucking lying like that?

Everything they mention is why I don’t watch the Olympics anymore, and I used to watch daily back probably pre-Trump. It’s not how they think though because I hate women’s sports or whatever. I used to enjoy several of them in the Olympics.

What have I heard about the Olympics this year? Something about mocking Christians, several things about trannies, and the only word about men’s sports being the name LeBron. It’s not about competition or the best man winning, or America kicking ass, it’s about politics, the plight of the downtrodden negro, suck the feminine penis. Just as modern games have left me, so have the Olympics.

Its really funny how this Olympics is literally nothing but controversy after controversy and nearly 100% of them are related to some form of Wokeness (sans the French just being dirty with their river).

The only positive things anyone saw was the cute Asian girl learning to bite the medal and the Turkish old man dabbing on Asians with their tech. Both of which were just unplanned little funny moments.

Lol, I don't recall that specific medal-biting moment. Remember which sport it was in, by any chance?

Honestly, I think the general lack of any particular disasters (sans la Seine making people ill, as you mention), major fights (apart from the hockey final perhaps), outbreaks or terror attacks, and indeed fairly decent crowds at most events (only the ones in Paris though. Not in other cities so much) is probably a fairly positive reflection of how Paris handled the thing.

The boxing and soccer tranny indiscretions are mainly just down to the IOC being stupid, rather than anything to do with the French themselves. Although the Opening Ceremony shit was entirely on the French, I must admit, lol.

But sports-wise? They've done a pretty decent job, I think.

It seems that they somehow managed the logistics (mostly) better than the Germans did with the Euros, only a couple of months ago, which, given the respective reputations of each country/culture, is somewhat of a surprise... Although some of that may have just been hidden, because I went to the RWC there last year (in the same stadium, specifically), and that was shambolic, even though the media barely addressed that aspect at all...

All of this has the caveat that we're only 2/3 of the way through "Paris 2024". We can reflect on it in full once the Paras are over, lol.

Theoretically that should be an easier logistical exercise (less people, less spectacle, shorter, less disciplines, presumable less expense), but I wouldn't necessarily count on it yet.

Remember which sport it was in, by any chance?

No idea, I've just seen it reposted a bunch of times over the last week, likely overdone in an attempt to meme something positive into the news cycle. Its just a cute little image, nothing of real value to it.

Also, one of the "benefits" of hosting the Olympics is that the host city shoulders nearly all the blame for whatever happens during their time there and the IOC has never done a thing to change that, and all the countries that compete to host them every chance means they agree to take that burden.

So whatever has happened is a reflection of France/Paris more than anyone, short of the tranny situation which I doubt they had any control over. But the Opening Ceremony, the river, the fucked up "green" diets, the failed businesses (meaning the economy is already tanking before its even over) and more are all completely on them. Either directly for planning it or for allowing it to happen in their city unopposed.

I think that's the biggest damnation upon them though. The sports, the thing the entire Olympics exist to test, is a secondary discussion to the ceremony. No matter what other metric, that means this is a failure of the worst kind.

Especially as the entire point of the Olympics is for countries to set everything aside and get together for friendly competition, yet this single one has divided us more and harder than most things in years.

Honestly, as far as women’s sport goes, it was… Not bad. Not necessarily because of the performances as such, but because, hot damn, I do not mind watching some of the fittest, most in-shape women out there go at it.

By that I mean aths and swimming, mostly.

Honestly though, it was better than Tokyo, for the most part.

Because it’s Paris, and if Paris knows one thing, it’s how to show itself off and put on a show.

But then, I am both a Francophile (to some extent) and an Olympics fanatic, so this is pretty much my birthday present to myself, to allow myself the time off to watch it, lol.

I’ve just always been very into it. And I played a number of these sports at times during my life (vs others who played AFL, soccer or League, for instance). So I may be a bit biased.

Would recommend the canoe slalom though, if you have time. That was actually very cool. Didn’t notice anything woke about it either.

There were some women's sports that have interested me in the past too, particularly things that I'd say in the US trended more towards women, volleyball for example. Canoe slalom does sound like a cool event, break dancing not so much.

Both "females" that have Y chromosomes won. Well... all females with no Y might as well not try anymore. There will be more "females" in the future.

Funny how 8.. 12.. years ago china was criticized for having girls that looked like boys in gymnastics. Fast forward now, its gonna be the norm lol.

Just entertaining the notion that women shouldn't be competing in sports in the first place would make their heads explode.

You mean to say that--

I mean at this point why aren't guys like ray rice coming out as trans and using it as an excuse to beat up women. Literally the only difference between what he did in an elevator and what happened at the olympics is that one side heavily praised the guy doing the beating.

Backed yourself in a corner with this one haven't you?

So... which is it?

Men can beat women up and get awarded and praised for it.

Or

Men can't compete in women's sports
