Food shortages have hit the Paris Olympics, with some athletes complaining that the menu has more woke on it than competition food..
“They are saying the Games are more sustainable and there is way more plant-based food but sometimes if you go at peak times it’s challenging to even get a piece of chicken
...
British athletes are shunning the main dining hall.
“Our athletes have decided they would rather go and eat in our performance lodge in Clichy, so we are having to get another chef to come over as the demand is far exceeding what we thought it would be...
The athletes are not going there just to eat their lunch, they are packing meals for their dinner as they don’t want to go into the athlete restaurant to eat.
....
food at this year’s Olympics is far worse than in Tokyo where the Games were last held.
...
Olympic officials are trying to force premiere athletes into eating vegan meals because ‘carbon footprints’ are more important than providing adequate food options for those who rely on animal proteins..
The website SwimSwam noted that food is not the only issue.

I think that wanting our athletes to be able to eat the food that they are accustomed to eating for peak performance IS supporting them. Trying to force plant-based foods on them, when that doesn’t meet their nutritional/caloric needs, is crappy and may well screw up their performance.
Excellent news...
You're the one watching breakdancing as an Olympic "sport".
Great Britain. Sorry I didn’t make myself clear.

You're either with them or against them. Clearly, you're with them.
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
― Samuel Adams

The athletes should just walk out in protest and make them cancel the ruined by wokeness Olympics. It’s high time to get proactive in the face of the abuse by the super rich elites... Who by the way, are not eating plant based garbage for their meals.
