It is hard to understand his issue. I think he started off (his piece) by complaining that we shouldn't pick athletes for the Olympics based on diversity.
But we don't. Sure this is the first year to OUT gay athletes have performed. But one of them, Gus Kenworthy, won a gold in Sochi already in skiing. And loads of gay athletes have competed in ice skating before (did anyone really not know Johnny Wier was gay).

Chole Kim (Asian American) qualified for Sochi, but was too young, and now has qualified for PyeongChang.
So now Mr. Moody (which rhymes with Mr. Mooney - didn't Lucy Ball work for a Mr. Mooney?) seems to be annoyed that the Washington Post celebrated diversity in it's article. But come on. In the run up to the Olympics, articles are written about everything Olympic. Your note going to love them all. With all the shit going on in the country and world, this is what you're upset about?
