    Literal dream accomplishment. She came from dirt poor poverty and trained fiercely. Not only that, but she persevered through a bunch of slander claiming her victory wasn’t fair. Gotta respect that.

    And I mean yeah she’s probably somewhat juiced up but who isn’t

      The state of professional sports is so fucked honestly. You need to use every advantage available to maximize your performance. Except those advantages. The ones everyone else is using and that you need to use to be on equal footing with them. Don’t use them. If we catch you using them we’ll disqualify you. But lowkey use them because everyone else is.

      Death to the olympics tbh

        Or if you’re from Bad Country that is threatening the US dominance, your entire country gets slandered as cheating and banned/attempted ban (Russian and now China)

        What if we just let people be as juiced up as they want? I mean these people break their bodies in many ways already are we really preserving their health to a significant degree by banning performance enhancers?
