Conservatives: "Ayn Rand says people should be Selfish and that's a good thing and being Selfless is bad." AlsoConservatives: " How Dare you take care of your Mental Health and not do that thing for us!?!!!!? "

Larry Nassar has caused mental health to each and every one of those brave female gymnasts, who were initially penalised when they spoke up. Thank you for speaking up for her. She is a jewel. Simone is clearly suffering. I hope she gets the help she needs.

Lol funny how y’all have to resort to insults instead of giving an argument 🤣

[MaJoRMJR]

Until someone invents a mindreading device (probably never), we can never truly know what's going on inside someone's head, so no one can pass judgement, you just have to accept what the individual says. In gymnastics if you're not thinking properly you will mess up your routine, which is likely to end in a horrible injury and the way she landed she is very lucky to have avoided injury, she knew that and knew she needed to walk away before she did get injured.

Sociopath
Fitting Description of Himself

[AndrewJohnson-skjr]

Bro what?? She is selfish for that, it's not about her Ira about the country!😂

[colechillen]

Charlie Kirk is supposed to be grown, but still pees the bed. He should probably quit talking about other people.

[chesterwilberforce]

These folks that are all over how Biles is a snowflake copout - They can't possibly imagine the pressure she is under. The most pressure they've ever been under was achieving a high school degree.

[echolocationn]

Lil Boy Kirk, a sociopath calling someone else a sociopath. As usual, the Reich Wing projects.

[thetruth]

What is he talking about? She done more for the country then he done I'm his whole small little little little little man life 😂

[MusicfromMarrs]

If Simone Biles were a sociopath, she would have blamed her problems in the floor routine, her vault, etc. on outside influences – judges, equip, what have you. Kind of like how Charlie Kirk blamed not getting into West Point on affirmative action.

Instead, Simone - as you mentioned - removed herself from the competition, which allowed her teammates to shine. In addition, this young woman opened up her own training facility, creating a safe space for gymnasts to train. She encouraged Jordan Chiles To come train there When Jordan was thinking of quitting gymnastics. Look at How far Jordan has come at Simone’s gym With the coaches hired to work there and with Simone’s support. All of these actions are the actions of a mature woman and a supportive giving woman. Screw Charlie Kirk.

[calidreams]

She’s taking care of her mental health WHICH IS NOT SELFISH, she’s human not a robot.

[richardpage]

Even if the reason she left was she just doesn't want to do it so what? She doesn't owe this country or any of you haters anything. She's representing a country who doesn't even value her other than the fact that she can flip. A country that literally hates her people so someone please explain to me why she should give af about letting any of you fools or this country down?

[natek]

Lol. Biles is literally a world-class athlete. Chucky sits at a desk and spouts drivel. No comparison.

[thawildawg]

The funny thing is, many right wingers online had no interest in the Olympics until Biles quit the competition.

[johnanderson]

Charlie Kirk hasn’t given anything to this country other than a headache.

[Foresight_Dreamer]

He really can't say shit. He can't even walk a day in her shoes. I bet can't even do a somersault with out twisting his ankle or blowing out his knee. 💯

[aggressiveattitudeera]

This young, black woman has achieved and survived more in her life than Charlie Kirk or his buttwipe followers could EVER HOPE to.

[williamjackson]

What Simone & the other gymnasts do is very dangerous . If their concentration is not 100% they can be seriously injured or killed. She did the right thing by bowing out.

[deniseohearen]

Kinda weird to call Simone and judge her as a sociopath when Trump is the textbook example of a sociopath. Coming from an ex mental health nurse. I know em when I see em.
