I don't see the rationale.
Man wins Olympic Gold medal.
Years later he goes bat-spit crazy and people want to strip the medal from him. I don't get it. The man needs prayers and pity - but I don't see any justification for pulling his previous awards.

Yep, he had all his bits and pieces at the time. No ex post facto recriminations allowed!

If it was documented that he won that medal due to thinking he was a kangaroo and therefore convincing himself he could jump farther than everyone else, it would still be fair and he should keep the medal.

I don't get it.

It's called political warfare, and it's no surprise you don't get it - we're Conservatives, and in general, Conservatives have NO CLUE how to wage political war. The left is absolutely brilliant at it, however.

but I don't see any justification for pulling his previous awards.

The justification goes like this: Jenner says he has always been a woman? So be it. If we are to accept his premise and be 'tolerant' of the LGBTABCDEF mafia, we must accept the fact that he has always been a woman. Women do not compete with men in the Olympics. His awards MUST be rescinded, according to the left's own claims. Hold them to it. Either they will join the cry to strip him of his medals, or they will reveal themselves to be the lying hypocrites they are.

Or, we can do like most here @ FR are advocating: Let Jenner have his cake AND eat it, too. Boy, aren't we just the enabling types!

"...but I don't see any justification for pulling his previous awards..."

We are fighting the normalization of deviancy.

We are the sole bulwark of decency left remaining in this country, and we are obligated to confront this decay.

That is the justification.
