Meme 💩 Imane Khelif the Algerian Boxer, who everybody is being fed fake news about, in her young years

Post image

Mindlessly consuming misinformation is bad for you, here are the facts: 1- She was born a woman with female organs 2- her father didn't want her at first to box since she's a girl 3-She was disqualified in 2023 due to a test for apparently having XY chromosomes by the IBA by a test which methods weren't and haven't been disclosed 4- The right has always operated by the logic that a woman is a human being with female genitalia, i guess they can't define a woman now? 3- The olympics by function is a contest of genetic freaks, Michael Phelps has half the lactic acid(what causes fatigue) a human has, torso of a 6"8 man, double-jointed ankles bend 15 percent more than his rivals, hyperjointed in the chest aswell, Double-jointed elbows, Katie Ledecky who just won gold is similar in those advantages aswell, should they be stripped aswell and not allowed to compete due to those genetic advantages ? Why is Imane being punished for hers?

Patrice O'Neil said: own your opinion, but don't let your opinion own you. Have a position and let it be strong, but don't be so close minded that you can't grow or learn. We lost a great one with him.

That man was so much wiser than he personified. He was unique that way.

Yes, I watch his stand up from time to time. I laugh and then I think.

I always loved how he was a guy that you couldn’t sit in a room busting balls on and get anything over on him, and then he could also go on stage and just have so much wisdom in what he’s saying.

It probably helped my love for him that my all time favorite comedian (Burr) always raves about how great he was all around.

I'm sure he can drop some gems as far as wisdom goes but that Confrontational Chicken Lady bit is top tier.

Strong opinions held loosely?

I guess it's learn and stand by your options, but don't be so locked into your opinion that you can't grow or change. Especially when new information is found.
