  • The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is facing scrutiny ahead of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris over one particular athlete’s inclusion. Steven van de Velde is set to represent the Netherlands in beach volleyball in the Olympics, which start on Friday, July 26. Van de Velde is also a convicted sex offender, and reportedly still has his name listed in the U.K.’s sex offender registry.

    Disgraceful. All those that think he’s “served his time” athletes are role models for many, something to aspire to.
    You CANNOT be a role model, time spent or not, if this is your idea of acceptable behaviour!

    I'm on board the boycott the Olympics this is disgusting. This should never be allowed and lets me know that the Olympic committee approves of child molestation.

      He is vile. He was a few days from turning 20, and told the Court “She looked older”.
      He thinks every PDF File can R00pe a 6th Grader and later tell the court “She contacted me first and told me she was much older, so it’s her fault”.

  • @rlfolder5437
    @rlfolder5437 Před měsícem

    The conservatives would rather shout about the opening ceremony and one scene that maybe paralleled the Last Supper painting.

    • @musicismyyydrug
      @musicismyyydrug Před měsícem +3

      Paralleled? By the own admission of the actors themselves it was a representation of the last supper. Quotes such as "The Gay New Testament" were in the social media posts of the lady wearing the Halo on her head. Nice try on your gaslighting. Another social media post touted herself as the "Gay Jesus". After the immense backlash and pressure though, they were quickly removed and everyone started backpedaling and making up lies by saying, "Actually, just kidding, what we meant was it was a representation of a greek painting instead" Get the fuck outta here with that. It was the Last Supper. And everybody knows it because those involved said it was.

    Looking at the age, It’s actually legal in California if it’s consensual. The law is 10 years

    • @musicismyyydrug
      @musicismyyydrug Před měsícem +1

      So an 18 year old can have sex with an 8 year old? Another reason why California needs to sink into the ocean.

    • @richatlarge462
