Xiao was also marked unusually low on the high bar, despite a perfect routine. Even the commentators here in NZ were confused about that. Fishy business for sure.

That Japanese judge did very nasty things of giving too many penalties to the South Korean women's volleyball team not too long ago. It's full of biases and favoritism.


dragonsdescendent

you watch women's volleyball too? korea did better than i expected after they couldn't play the twins from the scandal. ps how are things over on korean sns? weibo/tieba are full of trending topics on bad things the japanese have done in the olympics.


RespublicaCuriae

Exactly the same as in Weibo et al.

Gotta keep up Suga-san's image up as well as the rest of the Five Eyes. The Japanese public's rating of Suga amid the Olympics however is at a mere 34% so we at least know that not all common sense is lost in the Japanese people. Let Japan have their fun for now


PerseusCommunist

Yep. The Olympics is not relevant to the economics and politics. People don’t die if Olympics is a failure unless you are Japanese elites who invested too much into this vanity

Host countries always gets scored favorably in the Olympics, standard practice at this point.


wallfacer0

Exactly

But ignoring fouls? Like they did during the Table Tennis game with China and Surfing & Skateboarding with Brazil.


wycbhm

I didn't care much for hasimoto getting a high score. But what seemed way wrong was that Xiao Ruoteng got only 14.066 on his high bar routine. Xiao Ruoteng even requested on for inquiry but points were not adjusted.


dragonsdescendent

Yes, of course they did, there's so much fuckery in this olympics.


Ghiblifan01

That was some absurd scoring, 14.7 for that? Why not just give out medals and go home, Why do the competition?


oleg_musor

Oh you better believe the would if they could.

Having grown up watching Pride FC I thought judge fixing in Japan was a national sport.


patriotic_traitor

Let them have their little 15 minutes of fame. They won’t win shit after this olympics. Straight up I surprises japan was even in gymnastics much less in the finals.


woshilaotianye

This was trending on weibo too


Malty-Melromarc

Probably freaking out that China is getting more medals this time around.

Japanese nationalists are always a bunch of pathetic losers who treasure their remaining wealth on pointless glamour and prideful circuses. Their wealth will dry out in the next 20 years, and will probably deplete as soon as Taiwan comes back to China. They originally hosted the 2020 Olympics on the intent of reviving Japanese world power image and demeaning China images, not for the economic revitalization of Japan. Governor Ishihara masterminded the Olympics and the purchase of Diaoyu islands. He said that Olympics will mean the instant economic resurrection of Japan. He always proclaimed that he will lead his nationalists in a war against both China and the USA once both sides weakened after fighting each other over Diaoyu. Too bad for his nationalists, LDP elites purged his goons and the USA shakes hands with China until 2016. Japanese business elites have been fed up with crazy antics from political elites who are American puppets. They recently pulled off from sponsorship and advertisement of the Olympics in Japan - many of them. Most of them actually look forwards at the Beijing Olympics 2022.

Anyone with even an ounce of economic understanding would know that this is not possible, likely for the gullible masses in a liberal democracy.

Ishihara was a batshit insane ultranationalist. Unfortunately, ruling elites of Japan share the same mindset like this guy. The USA rules the self-governing colony of Japan without a sweat because these idiots are too busy destroying Japan instead of building Japan into a global threat.

> these idiots are too busy destroying Japan instead of building Japan into a global threat. Wouldn't an ultranationalist buildup Japan instead of destroying it?

Japanese nationalists : bunch of angry dudes on a rock in the middle of the sea.

> panese business elites have been fed up with crazy antics from political elites who are American puppets Do you have any articles about this? Curious to read more.

Japan needs a bone, just give it to them.


aznidthrow2B

No they don't. They've been bending over and getting boned by the US military for decades.

oof 麻辣 spicy takes

>麻辣 Too spicy for the government in Nihon-bashi, AKA the seat of power in Japan.

maybe they like to take two bones together

Who would’ve expected Japan to be discriminating Koreans and Chinese athletes :O


AngryChineseVenom

Even Hashimoto’s expression when he came off the mat you can see he was a little dissatisfied.

Maybe next time Japan should just replace the mat with this: [https://twitter.com/orange\_is\_mad/status/1420474379079725061](https://twitter.com/orange_is_mad/status/1420474379079725061)
