Lia Thomas, the biological male pretending to be a female, just obliterated his female competition yesterday in women’s swimming and the University of Pennsylvania is celebrating it on Twitter like it’s some kind of amazing feat:
🥇🥈
Lia Thomas is the @IvyLeague champion in the 500 free. Her time of 4:37.32 is a new pool record.
Catherine Buroker finishes in second.#FightOnPenn pic.twitter.com/ki2SQdxn6Q

I know they have to tweet this stuff but it’s absurd on its face. Thomas should have never been allowed to compete against women because it’s patently unfair. We’ve said it before and we’ll continuing saying it. Thomas is a man and he should only be allowed to compete against men.
To allow him to obliterate his female competition makes a mockery of the entire sport and all the time and effort these women have put into their skill. It’s disgusting.
So in reality Catherine Buroker is the true winner of this. But because of the ridiculousness of the day in which we live, she only got second place because a man was allowed to beat her. Where is feminism when you need it.
