Caitlyn Jenner Salutes Bruce Jenner While Praising Olympic Athletes
In the tweet, Jenner wrote, “An amazing day representing our country at the Olympics! Congratulations to all of the Olympians this year!”
The tweet struck some as odd since many transgender advocates consider bringing up a trans person’s past name as “dead naming” them. It is an act of discrimination, they say, to bring up a trans person’s “past” life as a different gender. And Jenner, who is running as a Republican in California’s recall election for governor, is posting that “dead name.”
Jenner has not been shy when speaking about about this year’s Olympics, either.
In July, Jenner blasted anti-American U.S. hammer thrower Gwen Berry for her protests during the national anthem, calling the protests “disgusting.”
That same week, Jenner said that the Olympics should not be used as a “political tool” for flag protests.
Jenner also blasted the media for focusing on the anti-American athletes when 99 percent of the Olympians are as patriotic as anyone else.
