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.
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.
