SKIT NAILS OLYMPIC DOUBLE STANDARDS

This thought-provoking skit looks at how the Paris Olympics has tied itself in knots over moral judgements. How can organisers ban some countries and not others over global conflicts? How can it welcome athletes with criminal records but ban Muslims for wearing a hijab on certain teams?

The IOC’s been performing ethical gymnastics at the highest level, and it’s left many of us bewildered. We think this satirical take @Bold_Stories highlights everything that’s wrong with the head-spinning decision making. Comments please.
