  1. Didn’t that disqualification from the IBA event happen last year?

    What the hell does that have to do with the Olympics and Russia? Do they mean to say Putin planned this all out last year to disrupt the Olympics? These are the same supergeniuses who can’t even plan their war properly.

    When it comes to Russia in the Western media, anything goes. It’s like the “Red scare” all over again.

    This “trans” issue got so big because gender politics is a hot topic in the West. This has nothing to do with Russia or some organisation. Female athletes with high testosterone or with some intersex attributes were getting banned for a long time. This used to be pretty standard practice. The “trans” politics came later.

  2. But what would Russia have to benefit from stoking transphobia around the world and causing culture clashes over lies? That doesn’t sound like something Russia would do.
