WADA statement on Reuters story exposing USADA scheme in contravention of World Anti-Doping Code
(www.wada-ama.org)
And it just coincidentally happens that the US has been threatening WADA to withhold funding if they don't do what the US wants (and this wasn't the first time either, they also issued the same threats in 2019).
So weird how WADA then concludes that they "had no choice" but to turn a blind eye to US doping and stay silent about the US's violations for "security reasons".
Yeah but they won't do that because they know where their bread is buttered. Plus the whole IOC is staffed essentially exclusively by westerners. The Olympics for all their pretense of internationalism are just an extension of western imperialism and chauvinism. They're a way for the West to feel superior to everyone else, which is why they were so pissed at the USSR and other socialist countries back in the day doing so well and would always accuse them of doping, and now the same with China, but it's always been projection.
Frankly i think the global south needs to just make their own international sports competition. Let the West have the Olympics, who even cares anymore? It has become more evident than ever that the whole thing is a farce. They banned Russia and Belarus while allowing a regime that is literally committing a genocide live on camera to still participate. I'm sorry but that's just not a stain that ever washes out. And i hope even if they reverse their decision on Russia that Russia refuses to participate in the next ones anyway.
