This is the true spirit of the Olympics.

There, but for the grace of God, go I.

None of these Olympians have mega sponsors, none are glorified millionaires, none are trashing their countries. All are just proud to be able to compete..........

WTF?

Why is someone without arms allowed to compete in a backstroke race? That is absurd and ridiculous.

I mean huge kudos for him for being fast, but that is complete BS to not even be doing the swimming style required of the race. Pure BS.

He should not have been allowed to compete.

The Olympics are even more woke corrupt than I thought?

On what planet does anybody get to compete in an event where they can’t fulfill the most basic qualifications of the event being performed.

Pure BS.

I hate the Olympics. Corrupt to the core.

The “winner” did not even do the required stroke. It is some kind of Dolphin stroke.

The Olympics are just a complete joke today? Nobody had the balls to tell this guy, sorry you need arms to do a backstroke. You don’t qualify.

Idiots. Just pure woke idiot cowards.
