Is that why you keep telling everyone the earth is the center of the universe? Can’t forget all those years of study!

What’s the phrase in French?

No worries, you just hear a lot of misguided criticisms of the education system a lot of which are based on anecdotal experiences. I wish everyone would keep tabs on what kids are learning and have a more hands on approach to curricula.

We needed in schools to be teaching how to pick out real news from fake news.

Obviously there are issues with education in this country but it’s always an easy scapegoat for these kinds of issues. Plenty of states have skills like this in their common core, I would venture to say you’re incorrect on that point.

The fighter has an intersex disorder

Yeah I’m the one avoiding accountability haha

YOU made the claim that she had DSD with no proof. What else needs to be said.

I’m sure you really care about fighter safety, unless it’s witch hunting athletes online with no evidence, then it’s open season. If you knew anything about the sport this conversation wouldn’t be happening. She was the better boxer in all her bouts by a wide margin.

Why don’t you take that whole paragraph about the IBA and apply it to the IOC?

So just to be clear since none of this addresses 80% of what I said, there’s no reason for the IBA keeping the results of her failed tests a secret and you’ve never watched any women’s combat sports prior to this in your life? Color me shocked. I hope your uninformed takes on the next scandal you jump in on are better received I guess. Or maybe you can just listen and become better informed? Nah that’s a pipe dream I’m sure.

So as long as we’re speculating, what reason does the IBA have for not releasing the results of their test then? Are you even a fan of women’s combat sports? What about her performance leads you to believe a woman without DSD couldn’t achieve it? It’s also kind of obvious why the IOC went out of their way to say she’s not trans, hint hint it has something to do with where she’s from. But ultimately I want you to recognize there’s no evidence one way or the other on if she has DSD.

I’m not disagreeing with any of that, just saying their opening salvo is funny because it’s pretty clear they’re not a basketball fan.

Ok but that wasn’t the point the person I was responding to was making.

Their seasons don’t really overlap tho, you’re not missing LeBron by watching Caitlin Clark.

So to your first point, what are NBA fans watching when it’s off season?

Can you link to anything that says she’s intersex?

Holy shit, I’ve got some googling to do!

I dunno if I would consider the band that launched gackt as niche but I might be living in a bubble of my own making haha

I’m not so sure about that, it often comes on the side with a big milksteak boiled over hard.

Objectively incorrect according to, who exactly?

This only works if you are extremely attractive btw

And so are you apparently?
