The Tokyo Olympics have just come to an end. On the final day of
competition, the United States surpassed China at the gold medal standings,
nullifying the celebrations prepared by the CCP's extensive media system.
However, Beijing was counting on a gold medal strategy, hoping to grab the
top spot in the gold medal standings, and now the U.S. has won 39 gold
medals in the Games, while Chinese athletes have won a total of 38. Losing
by one gold medal is a PROFOUND, unacceptable disappointment for Beijing:
https://www.nbcolympics.com/news/usa-edges-china-takes-home-most-gold-medals-tokyo-olympics

Trivia: Chinese diplomats called their own Olympic athletes ugly:
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/china-western-media-ugly-photo-olympic-medalist-hou-zhihui

So, China wants their athletes to win Olympic gold and also win beauty
pageants? Talk about pressure. Gold medals at ANY cost:
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/29/world/asia/china-olympics.html

"Cultivation of the motherland". Yeah, that sounds like a spontaneous
celebration all right.

MSM coverage of the Kung Flu crisis pushed the Olympics coverage onto the
back burner. Most Americans were barely aware the Olympics were even
happening. Seriously, it wasn't even water cooler talk...

Byker, why are you not at the Paralympics?
Oh, I forgot. That's only for the physically disabled, not mentally disabled. Lols.

On a more serious note, is the Paralympic a good idea? Why defy nature? When one is physically disabled or disadvantaged, why try to be, or prove that, one is still physically normal? Why not develop other aspects of one's existence, like mental or spiritual?

Yes, definitely!!! Always keep your body in top condition regardless of disabilities...

It's not "defying nature"!!! It's keeping your body in good condition...

A person is still normal. A missing part of a body does not make him any different. You get "around the problem" instead still thinking you still have it.

AND physically!!!

Fun story of today ... Bejing decided that since
Taiwan and Hong Kong ARE CCP China they will now
usurp THEIR medals and add them to the CCP total.
NOW they have "won".

No, not kidding. You can't make up this shit.
