@weddige @saltphoenix I saw with my own eyes the picture going viral without any such narrative and without any info about how he finished, edited into memes where the various shooters are anime characters, or putting him alongside Samuel L Jackson and John Travolta in Pulp Fiction

meanwhile I have not seen any articles going viral

@JackEric @weddige @saltphoenix Exactly that. These are a few of the memes I saw, and none of them was about the silver medal, only about his lack of gear and his seemingly careless/casual posture and attitude. Nothing more, nothing less.

@pixelcode @JackEric @saltphoenix When someone points out a problem on social media, do you really think it's helpful to reply that you haven't experienced it yourself? With examples where the problem didn't happen?

If you haven't seen posts like this, ask if someone can point you to some of them. But you are essentially questioning the existence of the problem and the experience of others.

I haven't seen it on Mastodon either, but for example Instagram is full of it (see screenshot).
