not that I know a lot, but the US is the only country with such a college sports financial structure
Wait hold on. You’re telling me they’re training to be GOOD athletes!?!? Absolutely Outrageous.
Can’t believe someone would care about less prominent sports. Do we care about sports or something?
Isn’t the whole point of having an Olympic program to produce good athletes. Am I missing something here?
You would be right but you have failed to consider that CHINA is an EVIL COUNTRY so they produce athletes in VILLANOUS WAYS
Exactly! If China is doing it then it must be in bad ways
Yeah clearly you are missing the most important parameter in western journalism and it is that China bad
Also, who cares? It’s not like you can eat Olympic medals, what exactly of value is China supposedly depriving other countries from?
Yeah exactly!
Here’s a less manipulative headline:
In order to better their Olympic teams, China has invested into scouting for gifted children. They will train at government funded training camps.
Yeah I was like “umm so like, literally all countries?” well except for the public funding part, I guess that’s the EVILLLLZZZZ part in American’s minds.
american prefer “feelgood” movies about a struggling single mom working three jobs to put her son through gymnastics classes or some shit. they have terminal movie brain and are divorced from reality.
