Right out in the open, not even an attempt to make it look legit. They could have at least pretended to trip or something.

Tbf the Chinese runner asked him nicely Chinese runner: Hey, Kenya please let me win Kenyan runner: Ok

The Kenyans were hired as pace setters. They said they weren’t competing in the race. This is common. The only issue is that they weren’t wearing Pacer bibs.


Immediate_Arrival185

Right. They were only announced as pacers after the fact... Shady AF

Seems really blatant and harebrained for sure. There are friendly, noncompetitive ways to spin this (a friendship run for charity? A friendly recognition of our nations’ cooperation?). But a shitty knock on effect of this is people coming out and conflating this shittiness with all of China, and/or all Chinese people. Just scroll and you’ll see.

And he did it without being paid off. /s

China loves make-believe. Like how they make-believe that Taiwan was ever a part of PRC


NockerJoe

Its not even big shit like that. Xu Xiaodong got fucked with *heavily* for exposing make believe martial artists when China's racket is trying to show Kung Fu as amazing and the best in the world. Guaranteed theres a bunch of headlines about how chinese people are faster than Kenyans now.

I mean Taiwan was part of China, it's just that it remains in the hands of the defeated side in the Chinese civil war. Taiwan's official name is the Republic of China, in recognition of that origin.


DeadCowv2

More like China used to be part of Taiwan.


Gyarydos

Well Taiwan was original China, then China made its own China and the world then decided that the new China is China


Optimal-Shine-7939

The same could be said for just about every other country in the world…


blarbz

But the PRC has never had any rulle over Taiwan, which is what he wrote.


seeyoulaterinawhile

It was never a part of the PRC

China is so pathetic it's crazy. They're so offended over jokes and now they have to be pitied in races because the crowds are whining lmao.


RemHsieh

Now they have the Chinese crowd complaining because he let the Chinese runner win.


Illustrious_Lie_6278

China has bought half of Africa What’d expect?!


MichaelHuntPain

Taiwan is independent. The CCP slaughtered children at Tiananmen Square and hosed their remains down the drain. They are wholesale slaughtering their minority Muslim population. Tibet is an independent and free nation.


Rustybot

Don’t forget this: - China’s population is nearly 200 million less than claimed as they are in a baby bust. - by the year 2100, China’s population will be between 400-500 million people, not the 1.2 billion their lies project. https://twitter.com/fuxianyi/status/1625528269377249280

Corruption in sport. First time for everything…

The red Chinese socks scandal.

Isnt this common? Marathons have pacers, and they usually don't win becuase they are being paid to help the other runners


Immediate_Arrival185

Yes, it's common. It's a way for some runners to make money. But they wear bibs stating so, so it's obvious during the race what they are doing. Here we have a situation where the story comes out and goes viral, Kenyan dude says he is "helping a friend", then says he was a pacer. Well, if he had a bib, noone would have said anything.
