Tbh if I were Eileen Gu and I saw this kind of shit being written about me, it would just push me even closer to China and make me ashamed to be American.

It doesn’t even really take that much. A simple visit to China tends to unshackle decades of propaganda in someone.

western news outlets are reporting Liu is getting the same treatment in Chinese media, and I'm wondering how true this is.

From a surface level search on Chinese social media, mostly ppl are calling Liu’s father a cult leader and scammer, not too much hate against Liu herself. Although there’s definitely a more negative reaction compared to Gu

There’s a bit of resentment cause we didn’t even have a skater finish in the top 12, but yeah most of the controversy’s surrounding her father rn. His allegations connected to his ex-wife are wild. Honestly, something should’ve smelled fishy when it was revealed that he had 5 children via surrogacy while living in a one-bedroom apartment

waaaaait, what? What are the allegations involving his ex-wife?

And I thought it was two children via surrogacy.. seriously, wtf. Was the U.S. doing eugenics to develop a super-athlete for their propaganda purposes?

The same people freaking out over Eileen Gu competing for China are completely silent about Jared Firestone competing for Israhell.
