Eileen Gu defends China’s internet freedom. Her message is censored.

Except for the part where she regularly visits China for the summer, speaks the language fluently. She's a great cultural ambassador for both America and China.

Please find a better outlet for your hatred of Asian, because all she did was make a personal decision to support a country she felt closer ties to. Could it be financial? Sure, professional olympic athletes in America need to make the same considerations since they require corporate sponsorship or a full time sidejob to afford to compete. China has a department of sports that help fund athletes full-time, so it could certainly play into her choices.

My problem with people like you is that you're mad at a 19 year old girl with great aspirations, excellent athletic and academic achievements, and a great role model for young women around the world all because you can't get over the fact that she's supporting a country you're just hellbent on hating.

Should people be reminded that America has been directly responsible for war crimes and mass atrocities across Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Yemen every time an American wins a gold medal? Americans get away with it only because of america's self perceived sense of moral superiority. If we really examine America's domestic and foreign policies in the last 30 years you'll find a country run by a government that is equal, if not worse than the CCP.

get off of your high horses and just watch the damn sports and celebrate the human spirit for 2 weeks; you can go back to accusing the CCP of atrocities afterward, I can promise nothing will change.
