    She definitely knew what she was doing. Carini is a policewoman with connections to the Italian alt right. She was paid 50k after the match by the IBA, the ones that disqualified Khelif in 2023 after winning the gold.

      Probably 90% or even more of the Italian athletes that participate in the Olympics (of anyway compete at higher level in minor sports) are either part of police, carabinieri, “fiamme gialle” (Guardia di finanza) or army. This is just the way it is, since those corps have sport teams which pay a salary.

      It is basically welfare, since those people don’t usually have any of the regular duties that policemen etc. have.

      Furthermore, I am not even sure what is “Italian alt right”, but anyway I searched in Italian and I couldn’t find a single source that “links” her to any particular political party. Can you provide anything to support your claim?

      At the moment it looks like you are spreading misinformation to create hatred towards a single person, not cool.

        Her trainer interview to an Italian newspaper is a bit sus and might imply premeditation of her actions.

        Especially when Inane next adversary was dabbing on a similar type of hate on social media.

        Hmmm this seems annoying for you! Really good example of the value of user flairs

        So long as this is a public community it feels like a perennial problem. Though private communities aren’t here yet, it seems you and the mods here want this to be a relatively public community. So community specific user flairs seem like the only workable solution (where there could be a default “use handle” flair or something or a requirement for first time posters to select a flair).

        Don’t know if there’s an issue for it or others pushing for it, but this situation seems like an idea case for its value.

      Why does this comment smell like a conspiracy theory? Will read article and delete if this is referenced.

      Edit: did not see anything about a payoff there. Got a link showing Russian involvement/payment by chance?

      Double edit for rule. Didn’t want to change username. He/him
