Do two wrongs somehow make a right these days?

That’s not a very honorable stance to defend.

That was a completely false rumor that spread like wildfire because people like you will believe anything they read.

I know absolutely nothing about breakdancing, but I do know that the clips I saw from the Olympics were embarrassing and shameful for any team. I don’t know why she was there, but it was clear she shouldn’t have been.

At least Eddie the Eagle displayed courage and dedication, even though he locked ability.

Now if you told me that she was doing it as a protest to vividly demonstrate the corruption and lack of values of the Olympic system, I could go along with that.

The claim that she cheated her way into the Olympics has been widely disproven: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/australian-breakdancer-raygun-olympics/

well she won the competition, but if you watch the video, she was still fucking terrible compared to the other girl. whether the judges were delirious, horny, or paid off, it’s fucked up that she won the nomination.

Literally a national embarrassment then follows up with lawsuit over a parody show. I cannot wait to stop hearing about this woman.
