They made the news because they remind people who hate them of why they hate them. Not because anyone had a wakeup call. They increased the ambient hate.

You can’t remove individual differences but there ought to be a level playing field at least at the actual competition. Is it acceptable to provide better accommodation to rich countries? White countries? I think at the games everyone should be treated equally.
That would be Australia. We are less extreme than the US but still succumb to fear tactics. We did manage to get marriage equality despite a conservative government so there’s that.
The athletes who get aircon will also be determined by who comes from a wealthy country. Makes a mockery of the games imo, should disqualify them all for having an unfair advantage.
Up next: incels demand to be assigned a sex slave to protect their health.
The chauvinism was already there, that’s why they have more male children.
How can you have the right to something that doesn’t exist? Your right to life is the right to have an unnatural death investigated by the police. That is all.
I want brioche donuts soooo much
Influencers should be called manipulators.
Domestic violence is not minor. Jfc.
They want people to smoke, that’s the only explanation. They make money from taxing it and save money when people die early.
Are you glorifying a teenager burning themselves alive? This is disturbing.
Get mental health treatment.
The taxes people (in Australia) pay to finance public healthcare are numbers on a spreadsheet and we don’t have unlimited money.
The 722 abortions in 2023 added to the 43383 births wouldn’t change that. I’m sick of all this fearmongering about fertility rates and using it to attack women’s autonomy is absolutely appalling.
I was really hoping for some theory of how sociopathy could be contagious. Nothing. I’ts just name-calling.
Listen, it’s a very easy premise: these anti-gay workers and activists believe homosexual thoughts are something everyone struggles with, because they experience similiar thoughts and urges all the time
What is the mental defect that makes people think everyone is like them or everyone is the same?
Are you saying my self medicatory alcoholism makes me green?
Excellent!
Equality isn’t treating people differently because they are different, it’s treating people the same even if they are different.
This idea really breaks down when you apply it to people with disabilities who have different needs than the norm, and that problem applies to systemically disadvantaged people too. Society isn’t one size fits all, we need to cater to everyone.
Taking your own air conditioner and rubbing it in the face of those who can’t afford it, in the olympic village where you’re all supposed to be treated the same, is such a glaring display of economic privilege that i find it bothersome.
I’m always embarrassed by Australia spending a fortune on sport and then congratulating ourselves for winning more medals, especially at the commonwealth games where most of the countries are poor.
