>Gymnast Gabby Douglas “disrespected” her entire country by not putting her hand on her heart and smiling enough during the Olympics. Swimmer Ryan Lochte is a “kid” who deserves “a break” for allegedly destroying property and lying about a traumatic robbery.
>The general reaction to what has been dubbed #LochteGate was initial confusion, a lot of spot-on jokes, and eventually a measured dose of criticism and a plea from Rio 2016 spokesman Mario Andrada to “give these kids a break” because “sometimes you take actions that you later regret.”
>The vast gap between these two public perceptions has everything to do with the identities of the people involved. Lochte is a straight, white man, who has long been beloved for his pretty face, doofy personality and charmingly slow demeanor during interviews. Douglas is a young, black woman who has battled racialized critiques of her appearance and attitude for years, despite winning three Olympic gold medals. huffingtonpost.com/entry/ryan-lochte-gabby-douglas-and-white-male-privilege-in-action_us_57b5e76de4b034dc73262f93

He's also a big guy.
Easton Jackson
the media HATES lochte because he is straight and male
all the evidence suggests he did literally nothing wrong, just get a little drunk and these brasilian monkeys start pointing guns at him
Nolan Bell
What unfortunate abdominal inserts
Christopher James
HE A GOOD BOY
Parker Watson
this no bananas for you
Jose James
Lochte is Jewish.
Ryder Cruz
Maybe gabby should lose the testing bitch face, cheer her teammates on and fucking show respect for the fucking nation that sent her baboon ass over there.
Jordan Allen
Why does every bit of drama have to be a *gate
Christopher Adams

Levi Peterson
Damn, he got a fat dick. That's chode tier.
Nolan Russell
Are you going to sit there with a straight face and tell me that it is unusual in your country for people to piss/shit literally anywhere?
Monkey-cops saw rich whyte boi and decided to shake them down for baksheesh

Henry Myers

Jackson Foster

Sebastian Perez

I agree, women should stop doing that.
Matthew Anderson

Kevin Gray
Makes you think... Dude has cunt written all over him.
Isaiah Campbell

Samuel Bennett

No I'm not converting into metric shitstem for you
Eli Wood
He didn't do anything wrong you little monkey faggot. He's a kid in his early 20s who got a little drunk. Then a bunch of plainclothes police show up and start pointing rifles at him, of course he thinks its a robbery. In civilized America we don't threaten to shoot people for stupid little shit.
Cameron Morales
>black cops hold up white Olympians >you: BLAME WHITEY nice post monkey
Ian Bell
I know right he just shook the store owner a little
Jordan Gomez
I can't quite make out what I'm looking at. It appears to be a giant monster head somehow attached to a two-inch dick.
Brody Murphy
As you can clearly see in this video the american athlete did literally nothing wrong and the police is wrong here
Leo Stewart
ur acting pretty desperate t b h
embarrassing
Gavin Moore
>He's a kid in his early 20s who got a little drunk He's 32 and older than Phelps.
Jackson Brooks
>civilized America >dont shoot people for stupid shit Go drunk, Burger, you are home.
Owen Harris
>Video shows them fighting gas station employees >No wait, video shows them pissing everywhere >No wait, thats not on video. They destroyed a bathroom off camera. Thats it! They were just paying for the damages! >Oh wait no, they destroyed some "advertising material". Yeah. Thats it.
The Brazilian authorities have lied about this incident repeatedly, and unlike the athletes they weren't drunk so they have no excuse.
A private security guard held them at gunpoint until they gave up their money. Thats a robbery. period.
Shit country Shit government Shit people.
No surprise.
Lucas Evans
Who has actually said that Ryan Lochte deserves a break? What article referred to him as a "kid" deserving a "break?" You can't just put quotations around words to validate your point.
Lochte is a moron who's now revealed himself to be a piece of shit. I have yet to see, and have yet to find, any one defending his actions.
I don't deny the existence of white male privilege but this is a shit example.
Fuck off, OP.
Jayden Foster
I've seen literally nobody in the media defend Lochte. It's clear he was extorted by """security""" guards and omitted important details to make it sound like a robbery, but I don't defend his douchbaggery for a second.
As for Gabby, I don't have any beef with her. Just wish she won more medals.
Logan Gray
>the police be raycist and lying Are you a liberal lol >>>>/reddit/
Easton Martin
Who are all these media outlets giving Locthe a break? There's literally thousands, maybe million "media outlets" now thanks to the Internet. Just cherry picking 3 and some tweets doesn't speak for the majority.
Ryan Cooper
>straight The jury is out on that.
Ethan Torres
>Rio 2016 spokesman Mario Andrada to “give these kids a break” because “sometimes you take actions that you later regret.”
Learn to read nigger
Zachary Ortiz
He should be Lochte up and they should throw away the key.
Kayden Martin
>Police give multiple contradictory statements >no no no, they're not lying
You are literally retarded.
Kevin Martinez
>It's clear he was extorted by """security""" guards
>inb4 they were lying just to get out of that shithole h-heh
Samuel Robinson
A Brazilian. Did he criticize Gabby Douglas for not being patriotic enough? No? Then where's the double standard?
Josiah Barnes
For you.
Daniel Lopez
they probably were though considering you took their fucking passport
but hey who am I to criticize the Brazilian police, I'm sure they do an outstanding job
Isaiah Baker
>america >civilized
Also, >we don't threaten to shoot people for stupid little shit Not sure if bait or just proxyfag.
Nathan Hughes
>one got gun pointed at him by brazilian nigger >other is a being a spiteful nigger
Brandon Lee

Oliver Myers
That speedo
Would it hurt if I took it off?
Hunter Howard
You're pathetic tbqh >your next post will be ''youre a nigger''
Elijah Martinez
>lochte: did something stupid when drunk. >Douglas : purposefully and with forethought decided to snub her own country
See the difference yet?
Connor Bailey
yeah stay mad
i'm pretty sure I've blown you the fuck out of several threads on this subject, I can tell because you always post the same shit
Jordan Reyes
>the I am drunk meme
Christian Lee
why would Lochte besmirch the good people of Brazil when he was the jackass? disgraceful
Luis Brown
We have no reason to believe you,a third world shithole with corrupt police and an inferiority complex
Hudson Barnes
This is my first time posting on Sup Forums in like months and the only thing you blew was your bathroom scale
Aaron Long
Oh wow, the two guys who were pulled off of their flight home for no reason and had their passports taken by the government told the authorities what they wanted to hear. Case Closed!
Are all monkeys this stupid?
Jordan Thomas
how big do you think his cock is?
Samuel Thompson
>I do my thinking in meems >I have a babby brain! kek, foreigners
Colton Morales
right my bad
I forgot how poor connection was in the favela hopefully you have enough rainwater to drink and your treadmill generatior is working well
Ryder Hill
I know right how can we trust them
Parker Miller
You see, I would agree with you if Brazil were a real country. But we know what your police are like. Truth is probably that he committed a minor offense and your corrupt scoundrels "law" fucked things up
Landon Lewis
Tell me how they fucked things up, oh great american knower of the brazilian law
Logan Fisher
hubba hubba who is this hottie
Alexander Martin
That's precisely why I don't believe you. Your police are similar to blm- ghetto babbies with no intelligence or honesty
Jonathan Rogers
cheat on girlfriend trash and urinate in gas station bribe manager to leave before police arrives call mom make up bullshit story where he was mugged by still kept his cellphone and wallet give an "I am so brave bruh" interview split the country before everyone one else in the team video evidence appears exposing the bullshit team mates are stuck in Rio held by local police and also call bullshit on the entire story
this is priceless
Daniel Russell
Lochte should be extradited for being a faggot and he should face at least 6 months in a brazillian jail for his faggotry. gabby douglas is a fucking retard, but she is also just a kid so no one is going to hold it against her. stop getting all salty because someone butthurted you on the interwebs, faggot >ITT op is a faggot who acts like a faggot
Cooper Campbell
>brazilian law lol
Lincoln Brooks
I think you are mistaking whos similar to who here
Dylan Rogers
Sure blew me the fuck out amiright Sup Forums
Julian Gutierrez
is this the narrative now?
I mean the Brazilian """authorities""" keep changing it, I just can't keep up.
What's that? It wasn't a gas station? It was a children's hospital now? How despicable.
Ayden Evans
>I think you are mistaking whos similar to who here I don't think that I am. You are a country of gutter trash. You know the world looks down you, so your media is going to circlejerk about something that happens everyday in your little shithole because a foreigner did it.
Nicholas Garcia
Lochte didn't have a gun, nigger.
Alexander Evans
Gabby is a 20 year old woman, she is not a child. Although mentally she is a child because she is black.
Camden Wright
>battled radicalized critiques for her appearance and attitude Oh look, she got bullied in high school like virtually everyone reading this did at least once, judging by the "attitude" addition some of it was clearly associated to her actions.
Why should I give a shit about her?
Adam Ward
This is epic i'd show you that image in the front page but in lochtes words >Whatever And he isnt dead you double nigger actually hes in his home probably fucking some girls while you autists protect him
Austin Watson
Wait-are you saying that white tourists don't get robbed in Brazil? I was robbed by the police when I was last in rio.
Levi Perez
>charmingly slow demeanor No, he's just slow, and it isn't charming.
Nolan Gray
53
Nathan Stewart
For you
Owen Diaz
>half spic explains why he's a good swimmer
Jacob Gutierrez
Yeah he's not dead because he didn't go around pointing a gun at people like an idiot.
Got any more riddles to solve, Harambe?
Xavier Sanchez
>htes words >Whatever Lol, you' can quote him? He really hurt your peasant feeling kek If it makes you feel better, he probably was in the wrong. So now you're left with green pools, uncleanly hotel rooms, sea corpses, and gas station clerks with pistols. Lucky brazil
Parker Brown
brazil monkeys seem quite triggered today
Isaiah Lopez
Yeah sure Why did he keep his >watch >shoes >cellphone >wallet >olympic shit >was not scared at all >got back only 3 hours after he was ''robbed'' >only lost part of his money >didnt go to the police >didnt tell no one I mean if you know a thief like this people send them over
Christian Smith
You mean to say that the woman who sees the entire world through her lens of white privilege is single?
She can't find one man out of the roughly 3.5 billion on the planet who can stand to be around her?
Why I am shocked. Shocked, I say!
Logan Gutierrez
are you trolling? I'm saying that the guy made up a very stupid lie to solve some relatively small problems (curfew + girlfriend) and it just became a international shitstorm
and the cherry on top is that his interview made him look like the badass in front of his team mates, who by the way just turned on him
who gives a fuck about robbed tourists
Gavin Ramirez
pretty entertaining to watch run around trying to defend their country's honor over the internet
as if the rest of the world doesn't already think Brazil is a shithole
Isaiah Parker
I don't see your point. Me thinks you doth protest too much.
William Cook
we should all boycott brazilian goods now
Ethan Russell

Jace Cox

Those comments made me angry.
John Peterson

Cameron Moore
How come you don't want to reply to me anymore? Is this how you BTFO people? You give them the silent treatment?
Are you a girl by any chance?
Mason Jones
Stay triggered, nigger.
Parker Lewis
>who gives a fuck about robbed tourists brazil summed up
Jose Smith
Your reply was I dont see anything what do you want me to say if you want to stay delusional thats your choice
Joseph Johnson
Sure because not honoring your country and all those who died is just as equal as falsifying a robbery.
Glad you have your priorities straight.
Thomas Murphy
You weren't making a point. Maybe explain it more clearly. Go on. Give it your best.
