Simone's withdrawal itself isn't what I have a problem with. Pressure gets to high level athletes all the time. (Although it does diminish her supposed "GOAT" status if she can't perform without the quick release version Adderall, having turned down the Japan-legal slow release version).

However, what's bizarre is that the media isn't portraying it as a withdrawal due to a temporary disability, but rather as a an indulgent moment of "self-care," then saying that that's a good thing, much braver than pushing through and competing.

I think the reason for this is that we're going to lose our spot as the preeminent superpower to China soon. The elite responsible for this don't want to be blamed, so they want get people used to the idea that it's OK to just quit in an international competition in the hopes their own surrender in geopolitical competition will be excused.

nah our elites don't think ahead that much. we have the dumbest people in charge. that's why we're declining. Biles is being celebrated because she's a black woman. Simple as that.

It’s more than that. A lot of women have been diagnosed as bipolar or told they need SSRIs to deal with their “stressful” lives. They all see some chick quitting something because it’s stressful and think how nice it would be for them to do the same. Hell, most women have or will do something similar. This normally occurs with a woman’s career, but will also occur with housing, significant others, etc.

CR. It's a very boomer mentality that you see on this bort all the time that our elites are these deviously omniscient puppet-masters arranging for behind-the-scenes results that work to mold society in their image.

These people are utterly talentless and incompetent hacks just trying to keep their heads above water and keep the scam going just another couple of months so they can squeeze what they can out of their run.

part of it is the transformation toward individualism and away from impersonal shared constructs like 'national glory.' an athlete sacrificing herself for the greater good of national greatness makes no sense if the 'nation' itself is just an economic zone full of individuals unmoored from a grander national tradition.

No. They just went all-in on a black woman usurping whites I’m something, and since they’re petty losers about everything, they were doing a big song and dance about it. Then, she quit in the middle of their circle jerk, and now they’re deploying their army of limp wristed “journalists” to brainwash their people

This is it. There's no master plan. They were setting up Simone Biles as the next Jesse Owen's or Jackie Robinson, and needed to come up with something when she quit.

I think this is correct, although it does nicely set the stage for Joe Biden's "courageous" dementia-related resignation next year
