Get Ready For A ‘Woke’ Olympics

The Olympics in Tokyo this year is set to be the most political yet, and the games haven’t even started.

Athletes who otherwise would receive little to no attention are making various political statements, gaining them praise in the media and adoration from more famous athletes. Take the example of a hammer thrower, who turned her back and noticeably pouted and fidgeted because the national anthem was played while she was receiving her bronze medal. She’s going to the Olympics to represent the United States, but our flag and anthem offend her.
