2nd August 2021: the day women's sport died

Today women learned how much men hate them.

2nd August 2021.

On this day, Laurel Hubbard, a man, a cheat, 20 years older than the other competitors, with full backing from the International Olympic Committee, took part in the female weightlifting event.

A woman spoke up on the James O’Brian show and he talked over her.

The BBC warned other women to keep their mouths shut.

Then they platformed this person—Fallon Fox— and allowed him to comment.

Remember, Hubbard has broken New Zealand female weightlifting records, because he’s a man.

Reminder: Lauren Hubbard smashed every New Zealand female weightlifting record.

In the competition, Hubbard performed much as any out of shape middle-aged man would, and he was out of the competition with a smile on his face, because he had achieved his objective, which was to cheat.

Cheated a woman out of her spot for absolutely nothing!

Laurel Hubbard is out. I think this was always going to happen. I feel absolutely gutted for Roviel Detenamo who was denied her place at the Olympics because of inclusion which excluded her when I don’t believe Hubbard had any intention of competing well. #olympics #Tokyo2020

@BBCSport "Whether Laurel Hubbard gets a medal or not women have already paid the price. A woman lost her Olympic dream. She’ll be watching the competition from home instead of being at Tokyo 2020." #SexNotGender

fairplayforwomen.comIs it fair that Laurel Hubbard is an Olympian? | Fair Play For WomenA view on Laurel Hubbard: trans inclusion means female exclusion. Hubbard in Tokyo means a top-class female lifter watching on TV at home...

Hubbard’s cheating will pave the way for more cheats.

Men with no sense of shame…countries hungry for medals…

Women’s sport died today.
