In the same time they’re claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.
Just to make sure I’m not confused: A cis woman punches another cis woman, and they’re all mad because they thin the puncher is a trans woman?
Not trans, just has a higher than average testorone level. Which could be due to a myriad of genetic factors
Wouldn’t that be expected for any Olympic athlete?

Yeah seems like someone is not good at boxing. Better luck next time loser
:SHORYUKEN
I’m so fucking tired of this discourse, besides the very obvious transphobia that the Brits love, at this point it’s thinly veiled sexism that the only women competing should be visibly stereotypically feminine. Which you know, runs counter to the required muscle mass to compete in these sports. Then you’ve got the factor that the women targeted in these tirades are often times POC so it’s checking even more bigotry boxes.
With their collapsing economy and lack of import in global politics, the purpose of TERF island appears to be acting as a bigotry factory exporting their shit takes to the rest of the world.
And probably a heaping scoop of racism on top. I feel like TERFs are always jumping to make trans accusations towards cisgender women of color.
George Foreman won Olympic gold in 1968, he was so absurdly strong that even in his literal 40s, coming out of retirement to box again mainly because he was absolutely broke, while having the physique of Homer Simpson, he still punched so hard that opponents that actually BEAT HIM would start asking their corner during the breaks between rounds to please check that all of their teeth were still attached, and his comeback career was still almost unanimously treated as a total farce.
This shit is so fucking dumb in comparison, yeah of course she hits hard, shes an Olympic boxer. She beat rural Algerian misogyny to make it this far and now this fascist culture war bullshit is trying to ruin her life.
How dare she beat up… her opponent in a boxing match?

She was told by her coach not to compete. I have high doubts that a olympic boxer would give up because her nose hurt after getting punched. And she was granted an “abandoned” verdict instead of defeat. This is obviously intentional melodrama to make her seem like a victim and so she doesn’t officially lose. Other women have fought Khelif and won. It’s almost comical how obvious this is an example of white women crocodile tears, especially egregious when it’s an olympic boxer doing it.
she was granted an “abandoned” verdict instead of defeat
what does that mean, surely she’d still be eliminated or whatever happened with a defeat in the tournament structure, right? does it save face in official records?

I just don’t buy this. She wouldn’t shake hands, she said after the fight that “the IOC will judge” several times, which sounds to me like trying to stoke the controversy and imply that if the IOC don’t overturn it then she doesn’t think it’s valid.
Also she’s a cop from a family of cops.
this seems kinda ungrounded; like just spillover anger from the people using this to be shitty
Edited the crying bit out
Might as well ban tall people from basketball, ffs
I think there was a related story about african lady sprinter (higher natural testosterone level), think she wound up getting banned in some competitions as well.
Yeah, this one got a lot of attention because British runner and professional crybaby Lynsey Sharp did a big performative cry after the race about how unfair the rules were and how her dream had been taken away. She then turned it into a celebrity press tour and a book deal here in the UK.
She didn’t even only lose to Caster Semenya. She came sixth!
Oh yeah, Caster Semenya is a massive terf bugaboo. They’re absolutely certain that she’s “a man”. They’re wrong, of course, but that has never stopped a terf!
Hey, this Olympic athlete is a statistical outlier!
buys Trans Exclusive Radical Feminism
looks inside
misogyny
And racism
Trans Exclusive instead of Trans Exclusionary sounds rad. The little “Only on N64” badge but “Only for Trans!!!”
getting the latest video games 6 months early before everyone else because i’m trans and then only playing civ 4 instead
the highest award i could achieve
I really want to get back into civ 4 but I’ve been on 5/6 for so long it seems like it’d be hard. Life’s tough
REJECT REACTIONARY MODERNITY (hexagons and one unit per tile)
EMBRACE SOCIALIST TRADITION (ignoring the pythagorean theorem and also playing as mao/stalin and also state property being one of the best civics in the game)
I really hope Civ 7 goes back to multiple units per tile, war in the more recent games is really annoying. I like the way Humankind does it where you have stack until the combat actually starts
I hope they kill the hideous cartoonist style of 6 and bury it deep in the ground. 5 is like 10 years old now and it looks better still
Guh. Even 3 and 4 both look better than 6
YES.
I don’t have a lot of time for gaming, but Steam says I’ve managed to find 795.3 hours for 5 over the years.
I haven’t even played 6. I was so disappointed by the graphics that I didn’t buy it. My husband saw a super sale on Steam and got it for us both a while ago, and he tried playing some around me to entice me, and it just made me hate it more.
I like how they did it in Endless Legend to where you can put 8 units in one tile as an army and then each of those units breaks down once the fighting begins. Never seen the combat in humankind but I can assume it’s similar?
Yeah it’s the same
it’s been too long since i’ve played any 4X (a few months) but i’m pretty sure that you can have stacks move across the map and position out of combat, but battles actually happen in a small restricted set of tiles and the stacks are split up to make you position and find advantage in the battle specifically. i think the battle itself has it’s own set of 3 phases (like turns within the battle only) to resolve
Trans-exclusive racist feminism
We are going to be witnessing new levels of rage-posting as transphobes confront the undeniable scientific fact that biological sex is also a spectrum.
Get ready for conservatives to start demanding genetic sequencing for girls’ high school sports, they now will be claiming that genital inspections don’t go far enough.
Their viewpoint has always just been that the only valid options are “cisgender or tragic medical dysfunction that can be shunned & ignored” so unfortunately I don’t think they’ll seriously engage with this.
demanding genetic sequencing for girls’ high school sports,
This would get them laughed at =)
Genital inspections are a two for one deal for conservatives, they get to do transphobia and sexually harass minors at the same time
Weirdos gonna be weirdos.
Look how this poor woman got punched in the face!
She’s a God damn boxer competing in the Olympics! Of course they’re punching eachother in the face, that’s the point of the whole thing. They signed up for it!
Joanne needs to be bullied harder. Don’t engage with whatever she’s saying just make fun of her for being obessive and creepy.
Needs to be completely deplatformed milo style
have been trying to lathe a reveal that Joanne is a sex criminal or something tbhWe need to do a honey pot operation and expose her ass
I want her books banned from major booksellers. Kill this TERF’s career
In the same time they’re claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.
This is actually pretty standard TERF shit. They believe that trans women are men, and that men are inherently violent against women. In this way, sending a trans athlete and beating a woman are manifestations of the same violence.
Die mad, Joanne, the sooner the better.
The enemy is too
strongwoke and tooweakbackwards
I wonder if there’s a case to sue JK for this tweet being libelous.
There was also tweets by Elon Musk, the Instagram account of Imane is filled with people telling her to sue them
The mroe views she gets the bigger the payout lol
Being AFAB was never going to be enough for these weirdos.
Patriarchal standards never truly went away, and now these fuckers want to bring us back to the 50’s
Holy Fuck the transphobic tirades that came out of this is extremely irritating and has me fully convinced people are extremely cooked from the reactionary news juice. It’s legitimately depressing and I think the onion has a point.
LMAO tfw you’re shitting and crying because you dropped your guard and got punched tf out like this
not sure if the video will actually upload but lets see…
The Italian literally seems bad at the sport here
it’s her very telegraphed right jab that does it for me lmao.honestly this would be me if i fought her lmao
I presume you’re not an olympic boxer tho.
I wouldn’t make a judgement like that about her. I think her only mistake is either her spacing or inadequate head movement. There are times where that counter-punch pays for your Ferrari. One stand out example in which spacing makes the difference is Connor McGregor (up and comer) for UFC gold backing up against Jose Aldo (established and dominating) and KOing him with a counterpunch[1]. Then there’s Sean O’Malley for UFC gold backing up against Aljamain Sterling [4]. Israel Adesanya has moments in UFC title fights where he comes out victorious from a counterpunch that looks a lot more like what she was going for[2][3].

She’s a cop, so she’s probably expected to outnumber her opponent six to one and for them to be handcuffed face down on the pavement.
That’s like the textbook case for how a counterpunch hits way harder than usual too, she didnt even just eat it out of nowhere, she hooks her way straight into a punch, just plain sucks lol.
I’ve been on my Ippo grind for the last couple of months and idk why but it’s so weird to go back to watching real life boxing and having so much of a better understanding than when i used to just casually watch boxing matches.
