@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).

Screenshot of Instagram reel, showing the following text: 52 YEAR OLD MECHANIC NO EXPENSIVE GEAR GOT INTO THE SPORT TO BLOW OFF STEAM FROM DIVORCE Yusuf Dikec's unorthodox approach with no special equipment, no training regimen and a wardrobe consistent in his daily jeans and a t-shirt, has baffled professional shooters. "Just shows up, throws a near-perfect round, and then asks if there's a smoking area nearby." #yusuf #Olympics #olympics2024
