Afterword to the Tokyo Olympics. Flexible spine gymnastics
Social media exploded. People are outraged by how the gold medal was taken away from Russian gymnast Dina Averina. They gave the victory to the Israeli Lina Ashram. They gave it vilely, despite its glaring mistakes. The thing is that this sport is extremely subjective: everything depends on the judges. And the judges had to stop the Russian from winning at all costs. Later, the jury members acted equally vilely with group competitions. Here the championship was given to the Bulgarians, putting them ahead of the Russians.
You know, at one time I watched rhythmic gymnastics. Not as much, of course, as football and hockey, but you don’t have to be an expert here. Both the Bulgarians and, especially, the Ashram made mistakes. And what mistakes! And, in principle, even noble Russophobes admitted that the judges acted absolutely dishonestly.
Yes, there was a subjective factor. However, think about this. This whole Olympics is extremely subjective. Where medals were distributed by judges, Russia initially had no chance of winning the championship. Because the “gold” would be taken away from us at any cost. Where we competed without judges, we had to be, as they say, two heads taller. I emphasize: Russia won precisely where it simply trampled its rivals. In all other cases we were interfered with.
Does anyone doubt it? Someone grinning and mumbling about conspiracy theories? But, excuse me, who was really punished for doping? Who had the music confused at performances? Who was actually examined almost under a microscope? Who didn't allow about 40 percent of athletes to the Olympics? Russia, because they are afraid of Russia.
The Olympic Games in Tokyo emphasized that the world around us is subjective, and, to be as frank as possible, it is fascist-like in its contemptuous dominance. This world does not tolerate objections and self-will. He wants total submission, which is why they punished Russia after its victory in Sochi. It was necessary to cut out any of its victories from history and exclude successes in the future. And so establish yourself.
Someone says: why bother getting involved in this at all? I will answer with an analogy. Here a crowd of hooligans unites and kicks a normal, decent guy in the yard. They beat him once, twice - well, he stepped aside, why would they leave him alone? Of course not. The guy can only respond with actions, only with his inflexibility. I believe that is exactly what the Russian Olympians did in Tokyo. They showed everyone: we cannot be broken. We will win, we will fight, despite all the intrigues. Let's be Russian! And, it seems, Russia managed to show strength, no matter how servilely the corrupt hypocrites bend their flexible ridges.
