The Olympics Have Become an Illegitimate Laughing Stock With a Man Competing in Female Weightlifting Competition

I remember the good old days when the Olympics actually had rules. People were disqualified for cheating. 

Well, being a transgender – being a man competing in a woman’s Olympic event – is CHEATING.

But the Olympics committee doesn’t care because they are WOKE.

New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard couldn’t be happier. 

This man, who identifies as a woman, will be the first “openly transgender athlete [1]” to compete at the Olympics and he/she will obviously have a huge advantage – he/she has more testosterone in his/her body and better muscle strength. The testosterone allowed by the Olympic committee is still five times more than a biological woman.

I.E. cheating.

Hubbard is obviously expected to win, but win or lose, it will allow him/her to become an instant celebrity, write books, go on the talk show circuit. It’ll be a great new lucrative world for him/her.

Hubbard has won a silver medal in the 2017 World Championships and gold in the 2019 Pacific Games. As a man. Lifting 628 lbs. to qualify for the games, he/she ranked 4th out of 14 qualifiers and is ranked 16th in the world.

So what are the odds that his/her female competitors have any shot whatsoever at beating Hubbard?

They aren’t good.

The female competitors aren’t too happy about the situation [2]. Anna Vanbellinghen, a weightlifter who will probably compete against Hubbard says the whole thing is unfair and is “like a bad joke.”

Cheating seems to be pretty big in Olympic weightlifting over the years to begin with. 

If you look at medals that have been stripped from Olympians [3], weightlifting is right at the top with 50 total medals taken away from them for various offenses

Laughably, the IOC (International Olympic Committee) says on their website [4] that they are committed to the integrity of sport.

Yeah right.
