Navyofbadgals Posted August 2 Posted August 2 What really makes this 10x more stupid is that if you watch the video the Italian boxer clearly sucks at defending and basically couldn't have left a more open spot for any opponent to punch her hard in the face talking about her dreams being crushed when with those skills she clearly was not winning no matter the strength of the opponent transphobes are the dumbest ******* people on this earth istg 2

dumbsparce Posted August 2 Posted August 2 The youtube comments are so vile. My god, I've never seen so much online vitriol being mindlessly spewed. 1
Marianah Adkins Posted August 2 Posted August 2 **** conservatives so much ugh. Brainrot has become truly global (Also, pls dont take offense since this might sound problematic but did these conservative ******* ever thought that a muslim country like Algeria would be sending a "transwoman" to represent them in the Olympics ). Hateful for no reason nor logic
duybeeGAshantiGA Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Damn I just had a look at JK Rowling's X wall and what a disgusting woman her hatred for trans is out of this world. A woman like this created HP. My childhood is forever ruined. 1
808dream Posted August 2 Posted August 2 I'm pretty sure that the stupid Italian boxer who gave up after merely 30 seconds of fight and staging that pathetic breakdown crying like a baby had planned everything. She right away met ultra conservative PM Meloni who publicly said men should not fight with women (men?!?). All rapresentatives of her conservative party hurried posting alike transphobic and homophobic comments. This event was merely used to fuel anti Lgbtq+ sentiments. Italy is truly going down an awful road. Poor Italians do not know how to vote for their lives. IT government never stood so low. (Ps from an Italian) 1
Weld_E Posted August 2 Posted August 2 (edited) Attacking any woman (mostly WOC) that deviates from euro-centric features is the modern day equivalent of a witch hunt. Accusing a woman of being a man in disguise as a fear mongering tactic unleashing an excessive amount of hate is the same as accusing intelligent women of being witches. Conservatives are so full of ****. Their whole mantra is to protect women and children from the evil left yet here they are attacking a cis woman over nothing whilst remaining MUTE on that pdf dutch player who was allowed to compete. They don't actually care about any of the **** they pretend to, its all a facade to get back at the left. Edited August 2 by Weld_E 6

Imane is eligible and the IOC already made that clear and approved. She already competed at the Tokyo olympics too and nobody batted an eye. It's funny cause she fell to her knees and even refused to shake Imane's hand. Just shows shes a bitter loser. 1
Kukai Posted August 2 Posted August 2 They need to do a cheek swab test and clear this up. There is much so much disinformation on this topic on Twitter rn. 2

It was so awful and unpleasant I felt ashamed of being Italian. Truly disgusting. This match had filled government social profiles long before it was played. Everyone was using pretty random transphobic commonplaces saying it was unfair for a woman (Carini) to fight with a man (Imani) and generally dragging Imani masculine features. Awful. Our government is awful and will get worse.
Arrows Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Every news outlet in my country is reporting this athlete as a biological male Even my grandma mentioned this incident. What the hell is going on. I'm starting to understand how the smear-campaigns of nazi Germany worked. It's chilling. 1
Weld_E Posted August 2 Posted August 2 17 hours ago, bushwick said: DAMN. So much for "believing women." You just straight up denied her tears and accused of playing victim. That's wild, you're down bad. The Guardian article actually included Angela Carini's quotes! 'I have never felt a punch like this'. I think it's bizarre the OP is also missing statements from the cis woman in the fight: "After the second punch, after years of experience, I felt a strong pain in the nose. I said enough, because I didn't want. I couldn't finish the fight after the punch to the nose. So it was better to put an end to it." Sounds brutal. What I find most baffling about her quotes (if they are real) is her acting like she didn't sign up for this when she dedicated her career to beating and being beaten by other women. She CHOSE and TRAINED to be a boxer, what did she expect will happen??? To get soft blows at the most elite competition where countries send the best of the best? This is the perfect example of weaponized white woman tears. She sucks and was beaten by another woman who is simply better than her. 4

Lil' Oz Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Let this be a reminder that conservatives don't care about queer people, so whenever they try to pink-wash genocide don't fall for it. Remember how they were justifying the killing of Palestinians because of GaY RiGhTs and now look how they are treating a cis woman, from a majority MUSLIM country, with a condition that she was BORN with. They don't care about any of us, they just use us as part of their propaganda to justify the UNJUST killing of innocent people. 2
KatyPrismSpirit Posted August 2 Author Posted August 2 The far right is low key hilarious tho. Cause didnt that prick make a whole documentary on "What is a woman?" And claim its a person born with female genitalia. Now all of sudden because Italian Angela Carini, who lacks skill, loses to Algerian Imane - a woman is defined as someone with lower levels of testosterone…, and if your testosterone is too high you're a man. Women have higher levels of testosterone for multiple medical reasons. This is evidence that the far right's ideology and stance on gender is inconsistent and wrong.
Gui Blackout Posted August 2 Posted August 2 It's hilarious watching men who otherwise couldn't care less about (or are actively opposed) womens rights and womens sports suddenly put on their shiny armor and pretend to be the biggest protectors of women. Absolute clowns.
Gui Blackout Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Also it's so terrifying how swift, well organized, and relentless the far-right propaganda machine works. Just in this Olympics alone, first with the opening ceremony "the last support" thing and now this, within hours they can create an outrage, travel the world and make it stick. It helps that the media does such a terrible job at fact checking and debunking lies, and the social media companies do absolutely nothing to stop it. 2

It's been "cleared up," Imane doesn't need to prove anything let alone be subjected to unnecessary tests to entertain this right-wing transphobic circus. She was cleared for this Olympics, she competed in the last one, and the organization that started this nonsense (the IBA) is known to be corrupt. 3
jadeabove Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Still ******* furious about the dehumanizing aspects of this horrible hate campaign. 1
prézli Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Well, this is the top news in my country since her next match will against a Hungarian one.
