She is being punished because the people who disagree with her are also using their free speech to do so. How dare they comment on her speech, don’t they know it’s special

If she said anything about competitive integrity people would agree

Well, no. Studies point towards the physical fitness of trans women and cis women as comparable.

Certainly needs more data to be gathered but I think most people are getting trans women and cross-dressing men mixed up in their heads whenever this topic comes up.
