Re: American cyclist suspended by team after pro-Trump comments
For some reason cycling is the most corrupt sport by far.

I think maybe it's because the difference between one top cyclist or another isn't all that much actually so the winner is always who cheats the most.

If there were no cheating in cycling there would be no stars because at the top level they are all about as good as eachother so there would be no consistent winners.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24257371


Lance Armstrong was thrown out of the sport he dominated because he was doping. Yes he was, but so were all his competitors. They avoided testing any of the samples from his competitors.

In last year's Tour de France, homeboy Julien Alaphilippe was leading most of the way through the race. But he's white European , and they were not supposed to have yet another white European champion. So they stopped a stage in the middle, when he was trailing at the top of a mountain. He was going to regain that time on the descent; everyone knew it. Instead they stopped it in the middle using weather as an excuse (the weather was dangerous, but they knew that before starting the stage) and a climber from Colombia (native South American Indian) was allowed to win. That climber went on to win the TdF last year. The amount of time was impossible to make up.

Still, I don't know why you think other sports aren't just as corrupt.

Re: American cyclist suspended by team after pro-Trump comments
OMG!

Simmons was suspended following his response to a post from cycling journalist and commentator José Been about the upcoming US election, in which she asked supporters of Donald Trump to stop following her on Twitter. The American responded by writing “bye,” followed by an emoji of a hand with black skin tone waving.

The use of a black emoji by a white person online has been repeatedly highlighted as racist, and the term “digital blackface” has been coined to describe its usage.

By the way...Simmons is white and the journalist, Jose Been (female) is white! Now they're saying he's racist because the emoji hand waving "Bye" was dark.

Google this: emoji waving bye click on "images," and see what appears.
If you google, you have your choice of bright yellow hands or brown hands.

 Quoting: Grove Street


I used to watch Tour de France every year. Then I got tired of seeing just the French countryside and paid extra to watch the Vuelta a Espana (tour of Spain). This year I've sort of gotten away from TV watching, plus I was sick from how they robbed Julien Alaphilippe last year from winning the TdF, so I didn't watch much of it.

Americans politicized international sports with their anti-Russia jihad at the Olympics. Now, one American got kicked off an international team that nobody has heard of. I'm sorry for the young man, but that's sports today.

He should not have tried to apologise. He did nothing to apologise for, and no matter how much he groveled, it would not be good enough for them.

Re: American cyclist suspended by team after pro-Trump comments
But there is not a white emoji thumbs up, at least not on my phone. So I use a black on because I have black friends but I don't have any yellow friends at present and I was brought up to understand that asians don't like being called yellow, whereas, black people call themselves black.

I used black as a sign of my solidarity with BLM, and now they are saying they don't want my support by saying thats racist for a white person to use a black emoji.

Its all very confusing. There needs to be an instruction manual for how not to offend those people, I mean others. Others, I meant. Not "those people" that was bad. I think, or was it? wait, maybe it was just a sentence. Is there a racial judge for a ruling?

I find it highly racist of Samsung not to have a white emoji hand. So single out a particular race and so they can not use the emoji without being racist is just terrible.

I'm calling the ACLU right now. We need a class action against Android for this mental trauma whites have endured because of their emoji skin color exclusion.

I just axed, I mean asked, my Mexican friend Juan Pedro, and he said he is not offended if I use a light brown emoji. By doing that I'm in the middle not good (black) or bad (white), just in the middle.

its true.

we must block all white cell phone users from culturally appropriating the black emoji because clearly they only use it to be racist.

apple, samsung, etc. must be held accountable and now register your race when buying a phone to lock and ban certain emojis, access to black twitter, etc.
