@arcana @lucy @sun i'm not sure how much the USSR "cheated" per se, but China does.
some of the USSR documentation after the fact seems in some cases they just stole a lot of effective training from the west that we discarded. though maybe having professional athletes at all is still against the spirit of it.-

@icedquinn @arcana @lucy china does other cheating, like they get girls in gymnastics that are younger than the cutoff and fake their age -

@sun @arcana @lucy yeah the chinese girls change age every time the paperwork is filed.

@sun @arcana @lucy i'm probably racist on the whole thing but the chinese seem to just steal things wholesale and cheat. their culture isn't real big on innovation (the examinations were about memorizing exact typos.)
soviets stole things but there's a measure of intelligence about it; they stole it and pried apart what they wanted from it, rebuilt it how they wanted it. worthy opponents. :neocat_magnify:
the koreans seem to be inelegant at cheating. i remember one olympics they were just getting DQ'd because they figured they could just sacrifice some people if it meant injuring an important american. they had to change some DQ rules because of that skating shit. :blobcatupset: -
