Shiffrin 33 Posted November 20, 2021 #493 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Beijing 2022 twitter account is now hiding replies containing Peng Shuai and blocking people that mention them about it. Yikes. You’d expect the official Olympics social media manager to be a bit more professional. dcro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numerous Award winning western journalists who advocates about free speech in nonwestern countries always delete replies they dont agree with. But they are supposed to be professional and non biased.

Vic Liu 1,574 Posted November 21, 2021 #498 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Luge World Cup in Beijing became the first WOG test event with spectators. Last night's match invited 300 Yanqing (Beijing suburb) local spectators. Though still no tickets publicly available, hopefully it's one more step closer for me to get ticket during WOG. opruh and heywoodu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
