“I’m sure the CCP did not pressure the judges on the final outcome.”
If they didn’t, I’d be shocked. An example is the ROC team of pair skaters that fell completely down flat, almost injuring both, and they got up and won the competition over the US that had a error free skate.
Ever watch the yellow light on the skating scoring board used to review a move? China and Russia get very few and are on for no more than a few seconds. Anyone else is left on for 15 or more seconds while the move is absolutely scrutinized.
No question olympic scoring has been fallacy for many lifetimes.

I think Eileen Gu, being American trained and everything is at the top of her game.
But yes regarding the judging. That comes with the territory of more artistic sports unfortunately. In 2014, figure skater Kim Yuna was TOTALLY robbed of her gold (she was technically perfect, and artistically just above and beyond everyone else’s league at the time) - due to rigged judging and the Olympics happened to be in Sochi at the time.
CCP are communists and pure evil.
Communists lie.
It’s what they do.
Of course they dictated the judging outcome.
