Women Olympics drama continues after the previous post about Simone Biles shading a racist former gymnist that called the US Women's team lazy.

Because OP refuses to watch the video, a summary of another source covering it will be provided instead:

(death threats aside), well well well if it isnt the consequences of my own actions.

why all the whining after she started it? she should've just sat there and ate her food Jell-O salad.

[silverstarry]

It is really insulting that she is trying to play the victim here.

Literal word for word transcript of what she said during her Olympic trials video:
"Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn't like what it used to be. Just notice like, I mean, obviously a lot of girls don't work as hard. The girls just don't have the work ethic."

Her first apology video:
People "misinterpreted or misunderstood what I said and what I meant."

Oh, so when you said there's a lack of talent, depth, and work ethic, you meant...something else? You're not allowed to say words and then say that people misunderstood. You weren't using euphemisms or anything. You came right out and said it, but once there were consequences for what you said, suddenly EVERYONE ELSE was confused and stupid and just didn't understand what you REALLY meant? Sure, Jan!

Also important to note that it wasn't just Simone who she blocked. She was also blocking anyone in her comments who disagreed with her.

But now MyKayla is acting like she's soooo supportive of

Now that I’ve watched the video I’m even more furious. She’s making this into a Simone Biles issue rather than taking accountability for what she said (she never would because she still thinks she’s right). I went to Simone’s profile to see what she could’ve posted to “fuel the hate” and it’s literally just her celebrating herself and her teammates. Not one mention of this pathetic troll, not even in a sly way. She’s literally using Simone to be racist while crying about cyber bullying. Hello???

No surprise that all of the comments supporting her are her fellow white Mormons who look like carbon copies of her. It’s Brooke Schofield’s comment section all over again.

Honestly same. That video is vile.
How is this on Simone?? She talking about supporting one another... where was that spirit when she was posting against the team?

No one should receive death threats but you can't post hateful stuff without knowing there will be consequences. Go to the police, woman. This is NOT Simone's responsibility. I really hope she ignores her.

[progression]

One of her friends said something like “for someone so big on mental health, you weren’t taken into consideration”. Like your friend cared about an entire team of women who had to over come mental and physical health issues (among other things) to get to where they are? Mmkay.

I see right through her and her video. Just racist trash.

[pwrpuffgrl]

Simone did quote her, no? Not a direct call out but it's was pretty obvious and we loved her for it.

Loser

[bttrsondaughter]

how is she supposed to see this if you blocked her?! i'm really tired of all the white woman tears surrounding this years olympics ngl, it's been. ridiculous and tiring.

also. this girl competed against simone for years, mykayla competed WITH simone as part of teams. she should've known what kind of teammate and competitor simone is, and that is someone who is going to be supportive. simone was not going to stand for someone bashing her teammates (ESPECIALLY since the teammates were jordan, suni, and jade! and hezly who is so young and starting her career!) even if this person "kissed the ring" by saying that simone was excluded from critiques.

people should not be sending death threats, but pretending to cry in a video and putting all the onus on simone to do this emotional labor for YOU when you're the one that fucked up in the first place? that's not helping matters at all lmao, do the work girl and apologize and mean it! then log off!

[daredevilwolf]

this is just like when chrissy teigen bullied courtney stodden trying to get her to commit suicide then blocked her and chrissy "Apologized" but courtney was still blocked so she didn't see it

i am begging john legend to divorce her so bad

[frankthesheep]

Maybe John Legend is also an awful person.

[daredevilwolf]

i know but if they got divorced she would be out of the spotlight for sure without john legends help
