The people it excludes are talented sports women
Why is it fine to exclude Tylor Mathieu in order to include Lia Thomas? Why does Lia Thomas matter more than Tylor Mathieu – so much more that he’s allowed to race against a team of women in order to steal a place from one of them?
OK, Detenamo is a weight lifter displaced from the Olympics by ‘Laurel’ Hubbard. But who is Mathieu?

If you click through to the tweet and click on the image (took me some time to find this, too), you’ll see that Mathieu is the woman who came in 9th in the preliminaries, thus missing out the opportunity to swim in the finals. Also visible here at the bottom of the page:
