The snopes debunk is correct. However she was selected out of 15 people in the ENTIRE CONTINENT of Australia in an event that was not publicisized among breakdancing events. Was it rigged per se? No. Did she know what she was doing when many were excluded from the selection process? Yes

Why do we have to suck so much ass as a species? Why does a little anonymity or distance make us into such nasty little shit heads?
I mean, we've got people cyberbullying others simply for having the audacity to play a character that they don't like on television shows, and shit like this where they're doing it because some dancer was bad.
Why can't we just make a couple of pretty harmless jokes, have a fucking laugh, and move on?
I don't know, why aren't you doing that right now instead of trying to blow it up into some fundamental social problem? I guess there's your answer.
Yeah, you got it, it's actually me that's the problem ๐ ...not the people baking up conspiracy theories and cyberbullying a person because she was bad at something she did at the olympics.
That makes total sense: pointing at a problem causes that problem. /s
PS: My questions were rhetorical.
