Paris Olympics 2024 - Tumblr Posts
I'm so angry I could cry
Vinesh phogat (india) did not deserve her medal to be taken away. The gold was hers. She defeated japan's yui susaki, who has never been defeated by an international player and was the Tokyo olympics' champion in the round of 16. She was the first indian woman to reach wrestling finals at the olympics. And they dis qualified her for being 100 g overweight. That's literally 50.1 kg. Brown women can't win
AND INDIAN AUTHORITIES JUST ACCEPTED IT?? Didn't even challenge it??
Wrestling matches happen over two days. She reached semis on day 1. She met the weight category then. If you're not going to allow her to fight for the gold at least give her silver?? She earned that much
You can't tell me this was not sabotage. She did not deserve this for fighting for safe environment for other wrestlers. Shame on the WFI and our government
And fuck the olympics for allowing child rapists to participate but disqualifying a brown woman for being .1 kg overweight
Edit : on 8 August Vinesh has announced her retirement from wrestling. She said that she did not have the strength any longer and that wrestling has won against her. Sending all my love and support to her.. she will be remembered for her courage and bravery ❤️
For me, the highlight of the opening ceremony was Rafa carrying the Olympic flame!! I was so surprised and happy to see him.
Khelif advances to the semi-finals and is now guaranteed a medal in Paris!
I love how the biggest “fuck you” of the century (maybe even the millennium) might be Imane Khelif winning the gold medal in the Olympics after all the harassment she had faced.
I, also, aspire to be funded by Big Cheese™️.
Why does the Olympics fire logo thing look more like a tinder logo than the tinder logo does
Like which one of those looks like it's for a dating app?

jack edwards saying he’s only watching the olympics, not because he cares about sport. but, because of the hot athletes, is so real.
