They’re just taking the argument that Imane Khelif and others like her shouldn’t be allowed to compete in the women’s competition to it’s logical conclusion. Pretty sure it’s to show the ridiculousness of it suggesting she shouldn’t be allowed to compete against women due to a genetic advantage despite being a woman.
