In today's video, I dive deep into the recent controversy surrounding Olympic boxer Imane Khelif and the wildfire of misinformation that has engulfed her story. I examine how public figures like JK Rowling, Elon Musk, and even Richard Dawkins have contributed to a narrative that's not just unfounded, but potentially dangerous. We'll also touch on the irony of self-proclaimed champions of women's rights leading what essentially amounts to a witch hunt against a woman who's fought against incredible odds to reach the Olympic stage.
