Agreed. If it wouldnt be for Africa and Jamaica, then the US would completely dominate. If the american propaganda succeeds, then those nations will be banned and the US will achieve total control over athletics.

 

Germany have a lot to be proud of here. You are equal with Burkina Faso in the medals table.

All you need is to read the posts of some users on this forum in this thread alone, and it's very easy to understand why extreme right-wing populism is running rampant across Europe  

Yeah, only Europe

It's so funny to read your first post, and then have you follow it up with this garbage. Canada, and most western nations do not buy athletes. They are either born there, or settle as immigrants or refugees and then compete for their adopted nation. You are right, facts certainly do not matter when it comes to your posts and comments. 

I dont see the connection, please enlighten me. Where did i say something that was contradicted by facts?

Firfirica, Parellis, Denny, who are they? I feel like I really missed the discus boat this year

Actually (luckily) the populism in Europe looks to have reached its peak and started its way down.

It's an extreme right-wing talking point, and frankly I'm disturbed that such views are being expressed on a site that's supposed to represent sport at its highest level.  These people need to leave their politics at home and stop trying to tell me what Canada is and who a Canadian is.  

 

It's not about Canada. Granit Xhaka represents Switzerland, Taulant Xhaka represents Albania. Brothers born to the same parents. So which one is real and which one represents the far-right views?

guys, can we write only about athletics, please?

 

I think we've gone way too far with arguments that should be discussed in the Politics thread and not here...thanks!
