I'm not at all sure that it is worth spending 5 minutes on this topic, but the mystery around what exactly was going on in the heads of both (shall we say) "low quality" breakdancer "Raygun", and the collective heads of those who selected her, seems very deep.
I even saw a tweet by old blogger Mark Bahnisch criticising her from the Left (although it seems most of her defenders have been on that side):

Further down he even said this:
%20%F0%9F%8D%89%20Dr%20Mark%20%E5%8C%97%E9%A9%AC%E5%85%8B%20%F0%9F%90%B0%F0%9F%90%89%20on%20X%20Dr%20Raygun%20presents%20herself%20as%20a%20lone%20practitioner%20but%20that%20just%20means%20she%20ignores%20Blaks.%20I%20think%20her%20pose%20of%20white%20explainer%20of%20racialised%20culture%20is%20quite%20discre%5B...%5D.png)
which is pretty remarkable coming from a sociologist!
Anyway, it may well mean no breakdancing next Olympics, and I'm not going to shed a tear over that.
