Apparently western media were banned from the Plenum so they started making up fake news to spread rumours. Man, these journalists are really making themselves targets for atrocities in wartime.
China should just ban all western journalists, and see what headlines they come up with. I'm hoping to see "China's new secret weapon: Xi develops superhuman abilities and lifespan through CCP super soldier program, physically flies around the Hall of the People to solidify his grip on leadership for the next 125 years"

"Et tu, brute?"

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi privately told President Joe Biden in a recent conversation that polling shows that the president cannot defeat Donald Trump and that Biden could destroy Democrats’ chances of winning the House in November if he continues seeking a second term, according to four sources briefed on the call.

You gotta walk a mile in their shoe before critiquing the choices made ...

Official team wear is not only used for Opening/Closing ceremony. It's also used for official movements (eg. flight to Paris) and other functions.

The problem with a traditional design like this (or a hanfu) is that it is an all-or-nothing design. There is no ability to layer or loosen/unbutton to adjust for comfort (eg, long haul flights) or weather (it is summer in Paris).

So while I agree the Mongolian motif is stunning, it looks more like it was designed from a form over function perspective. I wonder how the athletes feel about wearing that for 6+ hours of an opening ceremony in sometimes very hot and stuffy holding areas.

The other comments I find nonsensical. China's official uniform is lambasted for it's outmoded gender typing (skirts for women) but a traditional design, tradition being even more misogynistic, featuring skirts for women is lauded? lolz SCMP

The kit I'm lusting over is the China track suit. I've been wanting to exchange for one since forever
I didn't follow the debate on the Chinese OG delegation outfit. Personally I don't find anything wrong with it. Are people advocating for straight up hanfu type outfit to be worn? Cuz that's very impractical and will actually affect their preparations and eventual performance.

In the past Chinese design team incorporated elements of chinese culture to the jacket like clouds and dragons arts etc. I find them quite aesthetically pleasing. But these clothes should above all else be comfy and practical for maximum effect on sports performance.

It is not about the actual sports wear but the delegation's official representative attire.

Tokyo Olympic style official attire as reference, I even prefer the 2020 Tyoko version more because of the flowery accent for the female dress.

Red Suit and white pants just looks like Wendy's or McDonalds Manager kind of fit. Not saying the colour dont match, but in this specific case, especially with the given fabric and design style, it doesnt.

And then the whole shenanigangs why the fuck *CHINESE* wear clearly western style suits when you have literally styles like this in China available.



The performative sports wear actually looks good.

Holy f*ck, how many times can she spread fake news until people stop believing her? Is the west so devoid of Ws against China, they resort to copium?? She spread so much disinfo that always ends up being debunked. It's even funnier when you see 'think tankers' still entertaining the idea from a falun crap source despite knowing it's not.

You will never win in a debate on aesthetics when your opponent has already decided he hates you.
If you wear Hanfu or something more traditional they'd say, "oh they're signaling nationalism they're doing Han supremecy bla bla bla"
if you wear something a bit western they say "oh its boring, oh its western facing, oh its for appeasement in international media bla bla bla"

Don't play these stupid games! The only way to win is to not engage in this substandard rhetoric.

Good looks are objectively, distinctively different from not so good ones.


The would rather have Han supremacy (waring hanfu instead of western style clothes in an asian country is not hannsupremacy btw) then Mega cuck sinolibtards following western whoreship.

The former has confidence in their people, the latter sells out their own kind.
