...Simone Biles is weak? The fuck?

I knew about a lot of the other shit he said, but that one is just... baffling

[–] garretble@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I imagine he was talking about her decision to pull out of competition for a while due to mental health. (And now she's back and crushing it again.)

Still makes him wrong. And he was still a racist asshole. But I bet that what he was on about.

[–] jve@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

She took a break from gymnastics for mental health reasons. I expect this is why she is “weak”.

I’m sure the real reason to attack her is to convince others to see metal health struggles as weakness, so they don’t stop producing capital.

Apparently she's only the GOAT because of DEI, or maybe Critical Race Theory.

I guess thousands of hours in the gym since she was a baby, then winning dozens of tournaments and Olympics, have nothing to do with it. The only reason she's considered great, is because her gymnastics judges from all over the world decided to apply DEI and Critical Race Theory to ALL her performances, and give her better scores then her white (or other black) teammates/ opponents, and they did it at every tournament, for YEARS.

That's how she became the greatest of all time. Not because she really is. That title should go to a white gymnast, just because she's not black.

she is black and a woman, that is enough of a reason for the righties.

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 hours ago

/s to be safe.
