Iran has banned a weightlifter from sports for life and dissolved a sports committee after the athlete greeted an Israeli counterpart on a podium.
Mostafa Rajaei, a veteran weightlifter, finished second in his category in the 2023 World Master Weightlifting Championships in Poland and stood on a podium with an Iranian flag wrapped around him on Saturday.
On anther step of the podium stood Maksim Svirsky from Israel, who finished third.
The two athletes shook hands and took a picture together, which led to the Iran Weightlifting Federation banning Rajaei from all sports for life due to what it called an “unforgivable” transgression.
They are made by people in the end
Oh wow, I did not know that.
Well, yeah it’s obvious, but when people say that X company or country looks weak/happy/pissed, they are refering to the board of directors or congress that are taking the decisions, naming the country instead of the whole sentence is easier.
You can still find it weird ofc, I was just trying to explain why people do it.
Please teach me more of your liberal ways, I’m really starting to understand how the world works now.
I really don’t get the need of being so passive aggresive with someone trying to hold a conversation. Have a nice day.
If you were actually interested in a conversation you would have answered my other replies to you.
I am answering them, although those are in a different thread of comments. I have literally 5 comments from your user in my inbox and all of them have been answered.
Where are the links to hexbear users saying they are going to vote for Trump?
sent in the other comment, I couldn’t bother because I had to search for them again, but since you insist.
Some hexbear users really hate being decent when conversing.
You get what you give
Fuck off, don’t be a dick.
That was like a 2/10 on the “being a dick” scale
You know that’s not true.
No, its pretty true. It was very mild sarcasm lol
Are you okay?
Stop. Just stop. Act normal.
I’m not gonna explain how immediate hostility followed by sarcastic bullshit in response to totally normal behavior is dickish. Just be normal guys.
