In one of the more disappointing developments of the week, Olympic legend Simon Biles lashed out at Riley Gaines on Friday, claiming the former college swimmer turned conservative activist was a "bully" for opposing boys in girls' sports.
The background involved a biological male who pitched 35 straight innings in Minnesota as he and the high school girls' softball team he was allowed to play on won the state championship. It was yet another example of a "transgender" athlete abusing girls by stealing their hard-earned accolades and invading their spaces. Gaines spoke out against that, and Biles took exception.

You can tell that Biles is just parroting talking points she doesn't actually believe because she screws up and mentions creating a special category for "transgender" athletes. That's a big no-no on the left because the only solution they will accept is the total subservience of vulnerable girls to their deranged agenda. Everything must revolve around "transgender" ideology, and any suggestion that biological reality even exists is quickly dismissed as bigotry.
I also find this continued suggestion that Gaines is just a "sore loser" to be obscene. For one, she was a very successful college swimmer who earned many accolades. The idea that she just wasn't that good, and thus, that means she shouldn't be able to speak against "transgender" athletes abusing women, is nonsensical. Someone doesn't have to be an Olympic gold medal winner to know that boys can not become girls. It's a faux appeal to authority that obfuscates the objective facts surrounding biological reality because discussing that directly would be inconvenient.
But as they say, there's always a tweet. Are you ready to put on your shocked face? Because Biles once understood the difference between males and females.
Wait, you mean boys competing against girls is unfair, and if allowed to happen, results in the boys dominating? What a stunning development.
What this reveals is true for most people on the left who espouse "transgender" ideology. Understand that they don't actually believe what they are saying. I mean, does anyone really think 80-something-year-old Jo Biden had deep seated beliefs about "transgenderism?" It's just a social contagion that these people feel they must go along with to be deemed righteous. The choice to do so is anything but, though.
You'd think Biles, who suffered abuse at the hands of a former coach, would understand the idea of protecting women. Unfortunately, she's decided that joining the mob is more beneficial than standing up for the truth. To put it simply, that's cowardice.
