I don't see what her complaint is. /sarcasm

The habits of tyranny are hard to break. China expected that the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing would once again impress the world with China’s ability to build shiny new venues and organize vast and impressive mass ceremonies. But, instead, what are becoming known as the “Genocide Games” is exposing the autocratic authoritarianism of its governing officials and the downright shabby nature of its treatment for foreign athletes, some of whom dare to complain in public. Unlike Chinese citizens, they don’t have to worry about the social credit scores once they leave the Middle Kingdom.
From Yahoo Sports:
A Finnish skier claims she was ordered by Chinese officials to delete photos she shared on social media showing water flooding the athlete's village and flowing out of light fixtures at the Winter Olympics.
Katri Lylynpera posted a number of photos and videos last week showing water pouring down from the ceiling at her lodging and creating puddles on the floor.
Exposed electrical equipment can also be seen in a number of the photos.
Lylynpera captioned the video "help", while also sharing footage of officials arriving to clean up the mess.
However the most staggering photo that Lylynpera shared was a screenshot of a message she allegedly received telling her to remove her posts from social media.
A fan site on Reddit interpreted the messages, reporting that Lylynpera joked about the “ridiculous” farce and said Chinese officials couldn't treat her the "same way" as their citizens.
"Finland's Olympic athlete dormitory in Beijing experienced a serious water leakage today," the Reddit site said.
"Some Finnish athletes posted this incident on Twitter and Instagram ... and they were told to delete them by the Chinese authorities."

This is the kind of coercive power that too many arrogant politicians in elected office in the US want to be able to do.

This stuff happens everywhere. Last night security for MMA forced a guy to delete pictures of conor mcgregor...he posted at least one on twitter later that they didnt find. This was at a sportbook in the bahamas. Later Conor bought everyone a tequila shot

Nothing says the Olympics like fake snow on a ski jump and branded nuclear cooling towers behind it… @DanWetzel
This is the kind of crap the Rat/RINO uniparty of treason and their supporters are trying to bring to the USA.
The hazmat suits on the cleanup crew are a nice touch. Athletes are being served food by people in the same suits, as if the foreign guests are toxic waste.
Today’s forecast: 68 degrees with showers, indoors.
The people (Chicoms) who pay our politicians and media to destroy America are pure scum. But not as scummy as the latter who are oversaturated with scum.
LOL, 🙂
Time to defund the Olympics. Replace it with more reruns of Happy Days and The Golden Girls.
Otto Frederick Warmbier was an American college student who was imprisoned in North Korea in 2016 on a charge of subversion. In June 2017, he was released by North Korea in a vegetative state and died soon afterward. Warmbier entered North Korea as part of a guided tour group on December 29, 2015.
Wait a second……didn’t the traitor Eileen Gu say that there’s plenty of freedom in China and everyone can get on Instagram?
You forgot his heinous crime. He removed a propaganda poster from a wall as a souvenir.
Blinky lives in that lake.
I was hired to pull the skiers who land in the lake to safety. 😋
I, personally, think they’ve found a home and should stay.
The disjointed reality that Hollywood enjoys is only exceeded by the Olympics.
I believe that since the Olympic Games were first practiced, there have been multiple and long periods of their absence. They should be absent again, for a good while.
I noticed this and wondered what they would be saying if this were the USA,
Ol’ Otto should have known who he was dealing with. I believe it was not so much the theft of the poster, it was more his arrogant attitude toward the N. Koreans.
Play stupid games.....
He stole.
They don’t tolerate stealing.
I don’t agree with their treatment or the punishment.
