I am convinced that if there were collusion and cheating, the russian judge would not have hugged Adelina in front of the cameras, for all to see. Judges are known, even if there is anonymous notes, so they have nothing to hide. And now some fans talk about racism ! I do not understand such aggressiveness. Don't you have other natural passions in life than being a fan of... do you know what is the disposition to have idols?
I like all skaters, I obviously have some style preferences, I am sad when they lose, I do not make it a world drama ... I would have been delighted that Yuna wins, as I am delighted that Adelina has won.
Are you referring to me because I made a comment about a poster being racist? I only made that comment because someone is attacking a certain race too much in her comments in this entire forum. Really, go check her comments. That's not being aggressive for me. I'm only making a point that calling out fans of a certain skater for criticizing another skater and doing the same to them is hypocrisy. And generalizing a certain race or fan group as whiny, "bots", etc. is just plain wrong.
And yes I have other passions other than being a fan of a certain skater and I don't glorify celebrities. What makes you think people are doing nothing in their life but obsess or comment nonstop in this forum?
I would also be delighted if Adelina had won over Yuna and Caro (and others) fair and square as I believe legends are beatable. If an underdog or someone from the lower ranks in fs beat the top skaters using skills and artistry, then I would be happy for that person. I might even be a fan. That's how I became a fan of Yuna and Mao. They were juniors who were exceptional and beat people who had more experience back then. The thing is Sochi was not fair to everyone, not even the Russians even if they were the beneficiaries. These ladies were put into a situation where fans around the world bash them. That's not fair. What I'm sure about is that the results were inaccurate, maybe because of corruption or incompetency, who knows? But it sure as h*ll wasn't accurate. As many people here also firmly believe.
