The difference is the number of athletes caught doping recently.
-
that's an excellent point

Speaking of WADA:
The World Anti-Doping Agency kept the book closed on 23 elite Chinese swimmers who tested positive for a banned heart medication ahead of the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Five of those swimmers went on to win medals, including three golds.
The positive tests had been kept under wraps until they were reported in April by The New York Times and German broadcaster ARD. The Times further revealed that three of those swimmers had previously tested positive for another banned substance — again, with no ramifications.

Does it seem a little sketchy to anyone else that so many people were tested in China? Do they really have that many athletes or are they trying to skew the numbers?
-
My(Our for fellow friends) country is first. Probably it means that we're simple and don't go after high cost drugs that don't show during tests.
Take that commies n cappies

Kraut cope

It's almost like people cheer for the country they live in.

Did you just look at the pictures or did you actually read the text? It's not about who gets cheered for and who doesn't. The issue is people (in the US) saying it's not possible that a Chinese athlete did that and that he somehow cheated, which is not only childish and cringe, but extremely hypocritical given the context.
-
Oh, the bottom text is cut off in the thumbnail on my app. That makes a lot more sense.

Example of this actually happening?
-
"Not humanly possible" is a quote from an American swimmer commenting on the Chinese athlete's performance.
-
Thanks. I was legit wondering so I could go read more.
It’s pretty funny seeing an American Olympian criticize a Chinese athlete when coupled with this.
