This event is indicative of the “go along to get along” crap that is largely the reason we are in this mess. So, yes, it is a western civ changing movement, and no, I will not Move on.
It’s just a sporting event, what harm will it do?! Everyone wins and no one is exceptional, sound familiar?

Can two people agree on anything and for one time in their life and be courteous and kind? Do these two athletes have the right to agree on being equal on that given day? Maybe tomorrow might be different maybe in an hour it will be different. But at that moment they both agreed to share the top spot because they could not best each other.

It's not like they didn't beat a whole lot of other athletes to get where they ended up.

I get that you cannot understand the virtue of sportsmanship. Everyone did not win. Only the top 3 were on the podium. The vast majority of the field went home with nothing.
