So if you're Black and test positive for pot (NOT a performance enhancer), you're banned from the Olympics, but if you're white and test positive for actual stamina-enhancing drugs, you're still allowed to compete.
If you're a white man who naturally produces remarkably less lactic acid (the chemical that makes your muscles tired) than baseline, you're celebrated, but if you're a Black woman who naturally produces more testosterone than baseline, you're banned unless you agree to take performance-REDUCING drugs.
I lost most interest in the Olympics long ago, but it's interesting how many people (read: bigots) still try to pretend the Olympics committee doesn't intentionally try to prevent Black athletes from winning.
